A lot of people when buying an apartment prefers secondary housing. This is due to lower cost, good finishes or a convenient location for future housing. However, few people think about the risks associated with acquiring a "secondary":
- Problems with documents - do not forget about black realtors - resellers who buy housing from alcoholics, orphans of lonely old people and arrange for dummies. Too low a price is an occasion to think about whether there are problems with the papers and the owners. Inconsistent sales are also not uncommon, it is worth getting consent in advance so that the transaction does not break. There are cases when the living space turns out to be an unaccounted inheritance and subsequently the transaction is simply recognized as invalid. This is only part of the "pitfalls", and when buying a secondary home, other unpleasant moments may come up.
- Redevelopment - a wonderful studio apartment with a non-standard layout can bring a rather big fine in the future. When buying a secondary home, be sure to find out if there are any papers for redevelopment, otherwise such an alteration is illegal.
- Correspondence of utilities - it is visually difficult to determine whether the location of the pipes matches the design of the house. In the end, the wrong arrangement of networks can lead to overhaul.
- The presence of mold and fungus is a common problem not only in the old housing stock, but also in new cottages, where there may be errors in the heating system. Pay attention to the corners around the windowsill and balcony in the bathroom.
- Neighbors - oddly enough, most realtors really see this as a problem. In order not to run into fans of heavy music or drinking alcohol, it is better to ask the neighbors in advance - the owner himself is unlikely to tell about this.
These are the five most common troubles that can arise when buying a secondary home. In fact, it is worth weighing all the pros and cons, otherwise you can remain without housing and without money.
