Second Home Purchase Tips
1. Try to buy a home from the owner himself. How to buy a second home is the best direct from owner own / without an intermediary, because there you can get detailed information about the house that will be purchased. In addition to direct purchase, the price will be cheaper because the sellers do not need to give commission to the broker / intermediary.
2. Choose broker / intermediary the right. If you are forced to buy a home through a service broker / intermediary, then select a broker who you know / can you believe it. Another alternative is to ask for referrals from relatives property broker / your relationships. If not, you should use porperty brokerage services that have been known to have good credibility, which would be very helpful when buying and selling document management, even when the mortgage application if you plan to buy a house by installments to the bank.
3. Ask age of the house. Simply put you can classify the age of the house, new (less than 10 years), medium (10 s / d 20 years) and elderly (more than 20 years). If you've done renovations, ask when the last time renovations done. Surely this is not a standard benchmark, because it would be highly influenced by the quality of building materials, type of structure and quality of workmanship that is used in the house. Clearly, the older age of the building so his performance declining, and means that you should be prepared to budget funds to renovate the house.
4. Check physical condition of the house. Check in detail the physical condition of homes in each of its parts, if necessary check list to make it easier to do the examination. It would be better if you ask the contractor to assess the current condition of the house. Some things you should consider include:
- Condition of the structure of the house, check there may be cracks in the foundation, walls, columns and beams
- Check the wall, there may be ex-fleck-jad ground water seepage
- Check the quality of the floor, what was good or had experienced a decrease / floor cracks
- Check there maybe traces of termite attack on the sills, windows, doors, ceiling and roof of the house.
- Ensure that the roof structure is still in good condition, see perhaps a beam / gording very porous, or a serious leak in the gutter
- Do not forget to also check the condition of electricity network at home, still good or have unkempt
- Is the water quality is still decent, and also check what the water network is still in good condition
- Feel the condition of the rooms, whether fresh, moist or even feel hot?
5. Check environment around the home. Get information about environmental conditions around the home, especially if the house you want to live with family. Do not let you disappointed to find the location of the house difficult to access, security vulnerable, far from educational facilities or even frequently flooded it!
Completeness of documents
6. Check home. Check the authenticity of the certificate home, a certificate Building Documents, evidence of the Earth Building Tax and then do a cross check on all these documents. When was the name listed there is not the same as a home seller, ask his relationship status. If he has not done beyond the name, ask for the deed of sale and purchase of the legitimate house. To house the estate status, ask how many legitimate heirs. This point is very important to you, in order to avoid legal problems that are not desirable in the future.
7. Check prices. Find out as much information as possible about the market price of land and homes around the location of the house, so you can make bids in a reasonable price range. Particularly if you plan to buy a house then sell it again.
Well, hopefully some of the above tips can be useful for you. Congratulations to buy a house!
