Smart Buying: What to Look Out For When Purchasing a Property – at REMAX Dazzle we are here for the long haul, and will assist and advise you on all the various stages of buying a property

Before you buy — check these basics:

• Location first — schools, shops, transport and safety affect both your lifestyle and resale value.
• Set your budget realistically — factor in transfer duties, bond registration, rates and levies, not just the purchase price.
• Get pre-approved — know what you can afford before you fall in love with a home. (Our BetterBond partnership negotiates with all the major banks for you, free of charge.)
• Inspect the property thoroughly — damp, cracks, roof condition, plumbing and electrical compliance certificates.
• Check the title deed — are there servitudes, encroachments or restrictions?
• Research the complex/estate — read the rules, levies history and financial health of the body corporate.
• Verify crime and area trends — visit at different times of day.
• Don’t wait too long — if you walk in and realise this is your home, don’t wait too long! Another buyer might swoop in and submit an offer before you are able to.
