Before You Buy

‘To err is human’! Well mistakes are silly things. They annoy you and times leave an imprint long enough, but these are the only lessons you could expect life to give. True in its most abstract sense and in practical life and its nuances, this is something that will act as your guide.

In my hunt for an ideal residential property, I learned quite a few things about home buying. But sadly, since I am so much in love with my newly acquired Wave City Centre villa, I will barely need to put my knowledge to use. So, I just penned it down for others to avoid making the same mistakes. It may look like a haphazard list of precautions and advice, nothing like the expert column in dailies, but it is the first hand experience of a fellow buyer. So, hopefully it will help.

  • Never rely on fliers and ads boasting about cheap property and finance facility. One or two initial site visits will be enough to teach you this. So why not save time.
  • This point is an extension of the previous one. Always consider reputed names such as the Wave Group for residential projects in Noida. Their process and customer service are good and streamlined and you will rule out chances of falling prey to forgery and land mafia.
  • Now site visit is extremely important. Even if the building is not yet constructed and you have nothing but a barren stretch in the suburbs to see, go for it. The builder sites around that area and connectivity by road will help you a lot in making the final decision.
  • Keep safety foremost and amenities secondary, only then should curb appeal come in, which you can always improve. Make sure that your order of priority isn’t the reverse.
  • Go for the sample flat visit whenever it’s ready for a tour. It will give you a fair enough idea of how your actual apartment may look. However, understand that these flats are not the exact replica of your house and it would be smaller in space than what you see.

So, with these tips, explore the market and choose your dream home.
