Purchasing an apartment can be an appealing option for buyers looking for less outdoor maintenance or city living conveniences. However, doing diligence on certain flat-specific factors is important. Check property boundaries carefully. Does the sale include assigned parking, storage units, or garden allotments? Know exactly what spaces are private versus shared communal areas. Look into homeowners association or management fees. What costs do they cover building insurance, exterior repairs, landscaping? Larger fees can quickly outweigh low mortgage payments. Consider long term trends. Request copies of construction plans and building certifications. Note renovations, additions or alterations to the original design. Check for known issues regarding materials like cladding. Review maintenance records and plans for significant upcoming communal works. Enquire about reserve funds to cover replacements and repairs to shared infrastructure over time. New levies can catch buyers off guard. Speak to neighbors about living in the development. Ask their satisfaction level on managing agent responsiveness and history of emergency issues. Noise from adjacent flats and foot traffic can be problematic in some buildings. Take note of nearby residents who may affect quality of life like from above noise, cooking odors or even ground maintenance schedules that disrupt peace. Inspect personally for signs of damp or settlement cracks. Make privacy from neighbors a priority too for windows placed closely to other flats. Good insulation between walls is important.Read the lease terms carefully regarding permitted uses, sublet rights and the process if selling privately later on. Service charges add long term costs beyond mortgages to consider.
