Tip 1: How to take an apartment from the developer



Buying a shared housing is very profitable, an apartment forthe year before the house can be put at 30 percent cheaper.

How to accept an apartment from the developer


















You will need




  • - level;
  • - Roulette;
  • - phone and charger;
  • - A light bulb;
  • - lighter.




Instructions





1


The apartment must be clean! Workers are required to remove all garbage. Be very careful, maybe a newspaper on the windowsill covers the hole.





2


Check the lighting and the correct operation of the switches.





3


Check if the door bell is working. Most often, the door from the builder is better to change because locks can be the same all over the riser or the entrance! If you have a door with a programmable lock, be sure to change the key immediately after receiving the apartment and do not give any of the workers. If you do not plan to change the door, carefully check the lock and seal.





4


Check all outlets. Necessarily everything, however much they may be! After the acceptance of the apartment it will be very difficult to prove anything, and for repair it is necessary to knock out the wall. To test, connect the phone via the charger and check whether the charging is in progress.





5


Check the integrity and integrity of windows andbalcony glazing. To determine drafts, use a lighter. The flame should not deviate greatly, if the flame goes out, do not take the apartment without completely reworking the windows. Check all provisions for ventilation, ask the builder for the complete set of windows - perhaps under the contract you have a mosquito net, and about it, "forgotten". The developer must give you warranty cards.





6


Check the curvature of the floor. To do this, lay a 2-meter board on the floor and measure the maximum gap. According to the current regulations, it is allowed: - 0.2 cm for floors covered with soft roll materials, PVC slabs, parquet or laminate. - 0,4 cm for floors with a coating of solid tile materials and mosaic compositions. Also, on any floor covering, the allowable curvature of the surface for laying should be indicated. Especially carefully you need to check along the walls and corners.





7


Check the smoothness of the walls is a bit more complicated. If already pasted wallpaper simply check the usual level, especially carefully in the corners, and see if there are any visible to the eye defects. If the walls are only plastered better to use the laser level, a deviation of up to 0.3 cm per 1 meter is considered normal.





8


Check the plumbing and meters. Here it is necessary to clarify with the developer what exactly you should have, because There are no uniform standards and you can rent an apartment even without a toilet! If there is a plumbing, check the presence of water and its temperature, do not the pipes flow and what are the readings on the meters. The testimony will need to be transferred to the management company, so that they start counting your expenditure from them.





9


Also check the meter reading and if the repair panel or neighbors closes, you can connect to it and then you have to pay for their electricity!





10


If heating is on, check all batterieshot. Also see if they leak. If the apartment is cold, ask the developer to measure the temperature (your measurements will not be categorized as a claim).





11


Check ventilation. To do this, open the window and bring the lighter to the vent - if the flame does not move, the ventilation does not work.





12


At the end, once again carefully inspect the entire apartment - whether there are stains on the walls, unpleasant odor, etc.





13


If there are comments, even the most insignificant ones -bring them into the act of receiving the transfer! If there are serious comments, do not take the apartment, if serious, do not agree on the time of elimination and take the keys. Do not forget, you gave a lot of money for the apartment and it should be built qualitatively!

Pay attention that it is more profitable to purchase such a house directly from the developer, and not from those co-investors who, having bought the first, then resell it.

Buying an apartment on these terms, please note thatonly such a document as an agreement of equity participation, allows you to minimize your risks. Since the mandatory condition for the entry into force of such an agreement is its state registration, you can be sure that you are the only buyer of this apartment. Before entering into a contract, read Federal Law No.214 "On Participation in Shared Construction of Apartment Buildings and Other Real Estate Objects", which regulates the relationship between the developer and the real estate investor.

When the means for buying an apartment in alreadybuilt a new house is enough and you are not going to wait, you can buy it under a contract of sale. But, before doing this, check out the general development plan and make sure that all the main buildings nearby are already built. In this case, you will not have to live for several more years without transport and social infrastructure, in the conditions of the ongoing construction in the district. And do not forget to make sure that the house is already connected to the communications, i.e. commissioned.

In the general case, when money is sufficient and availablechoice, both in the primary and secondary housing market, so as not to lose with its purchase, you should orient yourself with the prices. For apartments in the primary market, it is better to use the cost-based method of valuation for this, and for those offered by the secondary market - comparative. The comparative method is justified for those cases when the area in which you are going to buy an apartment is built up with standard houses. Ask the cost of the same type of apartments, using the opportunities of local Internet portals, where there are ads for the sale of housing.
