1. Make a draft of your preferences for the Perfect Apartment:

We all have lots of dreams when it comes to our own homes. So, it is important to have a clear idea about your own preferences before you start searching. One of the most important parts is the size of the apartment. If you have a big family or have guests in the house more often, then you must go for the large apartments. On the other hand, if you have a nuclear family or you are looking for a flat to live alone you can go for a 1 BHK apartment. So, pay a significant amount of attention to the size of the apartment first.

Do not forget to have a proper list of amenities you need in your house. For example, if you have lids at home or elderly people at home then it is important to have a 24*7 power supply at home. At the same time, the security system of the apartment is also important. So, the best option is to make a list of the priorities first and then share it with your real estate agent for convenience. You can connect with Realtech Nirman for this purpose. They have been serving the real estate industry for a decade & they have different projects such as Rajmahal, Rajvansh, Rajokiya, etc. which have all of these facilities. For more information, you can directly check out their website as well.

2. Set a budget:

We all have a lot of expectations or preferences when it comes to our dream home. However, it is important to set a budget first. It will help you to get an idea of the kind of amenities you will be able to get in the budget or the kind of location you will be able to afford. This will help streamline the whole search process. It will also help your real estate agent to suggest you the right Property. If you are looking for a flat in Newtown, Rajarhat area then you can connect with Realtech Nirman. They have 2 or 3 BHK flats in this area starting from 23 lakhs onward.

3. Location:

Location is one of the most important parts of the real estate industry. There are various factors that need to be considered before you invest such as workplaces, educational institutions, healthcare facilities, entertainment hubs, etc. Do not forget to assess the neighborhood’s infrastructure, connectivity, and overall livability because it will directly impact your life and will also impact your family life as well. If you are looking for a flat in Newtown, Rajarhat area ( as it is becoming the new IT hub of Kolkata and also has secured the 8th position among the 100 smart cities of India) then you can connect with Realtech Nirman Group. They have several projects in this area where you will be able to get a 2 BHK flat from 23 lakhs onwards.

4. Legalities:

Legality play is one of the most important parts of the real estate business. After choosing a property you should check all the legal aspects of the property carefully. In the legal part, you should look for documents such as construction approvals, property tax receipts, and RERA compliance. If the property does not have all these documents, you should not go for this property at all.

5. Amenities:

We all want a comfortable life, right? So, do not forget to check the amenities of the properties to find out the perfect apartment. In this case, you can also make a priority list of amenities. This will help in reducing the searching time. You can get amenities such as a 24*7 power supply, a water plant, the latest security systems, a swimming pool, a community hall, parking space, an updated gymnasium, etc. if you choose an apartment from the projects of Realtech Nirman Group.

6. Think about the future:

Buying a real estate property is a long-term decision. So, it is important for you to think about the future. You should think about the resale value or the rental value of the property. For example, if you buy a perfect Apartment in the Newtown, Rajarhat area, you can resale it or put it on rent at any time you want because this area is developing. It is becoming the new IT joint of Kolkata. So, it is natural that every year several new people are coming to stay here & the demand will remain at the top. At the same time, the law & order in this area is also lower. So, getting a buyer or tenant will not be an issue for you and it will make another income source for you.

7. Law & order:

Law & order is the most important thing if you want to stay in a space peacefully. So, before investing in a property, do not forget to check the law & order of that area. You can also check the past crime rate to ensure the safety of your family.

8. Construction quality:

As I have mentioned before buying a real estate property is a long-term decision. So, it would help if you were very careful about it. You should thoroughly inspect the apartment before the investment. Pay close attention to the flooring, finishing touches on the walls, and the overall sturdiness.

9. Choose the Perfect Apartment :

It is important for you to choose the best real estate agent or company in the market to ensure a successful deal. Make in-depth research on the internet to know their reputation in the market. Have a check if your chosen company delivers the project on time or not, the kind of post-sales service they have, etc. You can directly connect with the existing consumers of the company to know their experience or you can go through their social media handles. Always choose a real estate company that has vast experience. This experience will also help you to manage the deal smoothly.

10. Have an eye on Vastu for Home:

Well, it is an optional tip. If you do not believe in Vastu, it’s completely fine. However, I believe that Vastu plays an important role in our life. Vastu controls our happiness. Just a tip, the land of your housing should be North-facing direction as it is considered highly auspicious. East and West-facing plots can also be considered. However, if the land of the property is south-facing, then please avoid it. It is considered negative.

Some common FAQs

What documents should I check before buying a flat?

You should check documents such as the Sale Deed. The Sale Deed, the Mother Deed, the land-use certificate, the Sale and Purchase Agreement, the Building Approval Plan, the encumbrance Certificate, the Possession Letter, the Completion Certificate, etc. I would suggest you hire a professional lawyer for this purpose.

How do I check whether the property is legal or not?

You can ask for bank approvals from the builder, check the title papers, crosscheck the encumbrance certificate, match the approved plan with the actual site, ask your builder if you can see the property tax slips & find out if the project has a registered society. However, according to me hiring a professional lawyer is the easiest & safest way.

Should I start searching for a property in the monsoon?

Definitely, in fact, according to experts the monsoon is one of the best times to inspect property. During the monsoon, you will be able to understand the waterlogging issues of an area easily. At the same time, you will be able to understand if the property has any water leakage issues or not.

What are the best places to live in Kolkata?

Newtown & Salt Lake is holding the number 1 position due to the job purpose. Both of the areas are the IT joints of Kolkata. Apart from these, Tollygunge, Bhawanipur, Park Street, Jadavpur & Dum Dum is also quite popular among the buyers.

Final words: Buying a real estate property is always a crucial decision. It controls the stability of our future. At the same time, it controls the safety of our families too. So, do not forget to check the crucial factors such as construction quality, location, etc. Well, the rest of the things such as legalities, price, etc. can be taken care of by your lawyer. Remember, experience helps us to make the right decisions in our lives. So, always hire a professional lawyer & real estate agent.
