Home buyers will find that the same neighborhood, the same type of house, the price is very different. What are the reasons for these differences? When buying a house and how to distinguish between the same neighborhood with the advantages and disadvantages of the house type?
Element 1: neighborhood building location
Most of the peripheral street houses are subject to more noise pollution, dust pollution, light pollution, and odor pollution (such as restaurant barbecue stalls), which is likely to affect the night's sleep and daytime ventilation.
Reminder 1: Be careful not to choose a house on the edge of the neighborhood
Houses on the edge of the neighborhood will often be right next to streets outside the neighborhood, which are lined with traffic noise. This is especially a problem when the neighborhood is located on a main Beltline road. So when choosing a house, try to choose a building block away from the main road, even if it's a little farther in and out of the neighborhood, but at least you can have a quiet life.
Reminder 2: houses with floor-to-ceiling windows must be on-site viewing
When it comes to light pollution, we have to mention the floor-to-ceiling windows that have been very popular. If you choose the wrong place, it is bright and blinding at 6:00 p.m., pulling the curtains closed without ventilation, not pulling the curtains bright and blind. If at night, you happen to have street lights by your window, those students who sleep afraid of light, probably another insomnia. So it is recommended that friends who are more interested in floor-to-ceiling windows must see the room on the ground and feel what it is like to look out from the window.
Element 2: Traffic inside the district
All set a good location and district, whether the traffic is convenient of course can not be ignored. But don't just look at how far your home is from work, but also look at the access to the neighborhood around.
Reminder 1: Be careful not to choose a house that is too far from the gate
Buy a house when the sales said well, the subway walk 10 minutes, however, maybe from your downstairs to walk to the front door of the neighborhood will be fifteen minutes. Then you spend another 10 minutes to walk from the neighborhood gate to the subway, other partners have been from the door to the company downstairs.
Reminder 2: Be careful not to choose a house next to the sidewalk
Some people think that choosing a house next to the sidewalk, the outside of the house, no obstructions, can be ventilated, the light is also good. Light is good this is certain, because it is not only the daytime light, there is also light at night, only that the so-called light is street lamps shine in, if the house is in a light all night, like to turn off the lights to sleep is estimated to be sleepless all night.
Element 3: Location of public **** facilities
Generally small areas are equipped with sports fields, children's playgrounds, elderly activity areas and other "activity centers", but you live in the place is not as close to these locations the better. In addition, there is the garage, there is a need to park as close as possible, there is no need to try to stay away from, after all, there is also noise and exhaust pollution.
To be clear, the neighborhood public **** facilities to have, but not all to be particularly close to you, although a moment feel very convenient, but in the long run, but unhealthy.
Reminder 1: pay attention not to choose the district activity area of the house
Many small districts are carefully equipped with some fitness and recreational facilities for the elderly and children, such as some sports equipment, fitness equipment, small children's play tools, etc., the elderly usually get up early in the morning, if all these old people with their children to the activities to pull the family, the scene can be imagined how The company's website is a great source of information about the company's products and services.
The elderly children may be able to take it, but for the average office worker, it's a bit of a chore. Imagine you finished a day of work, hard work back home, just about to take a good rest, but downstairs came a group of big moms began to dance square dance, what do you feel.
Reminder 2: pay attention not to choose the bottom of the house is a store
There are two types of stores above the house must not choose, one is a restaurant class; one is a hair salon class. Restaurant class housing every day smoke is very big, and meal time crowd, the noise is inevitable; and hair salon class stores will often play some powerful music, and the volume will be slightly larger, unless you yourself also very enjoy living in such an environment, or do not choose.
Reminder 3: Be careful not to choose the house next to the parking lot
The house next to the parking lot will often hear the sound of the car driving in, and the owner of the car opening the door, closing the door, and putting on the safety locks and other such sounds. It may not be obvious during the day, but if it's late at night, these sounds will be amplified several times, or worse, there will be headlights shining directly into the house, so this type of house should be carefully selected, do not covet the convenience of the moment, which is also one of the important skills of choosing a house.
Factor 4: Orientation and Floor
The issue of orientation and floor has been discussed a lot, in order to the overall lighting of the house, the main activity area (the master bedroom living room) towards the south or southeast are good. When choosing a floor plan, you should pay attention to how the location of the living room and the master bedroom is more in line with your own living habits, and choose according to your actual needs.
As for the floors, there are pros and cons that vary from person to person. Generally speaking, the top floor is quiet, but cold in winter and hot in summer, be careful of water leakage; the middle floor pay attention to the price problem; the lower floor pay attention to anti-theft, moisture-proof, insect-resistant ants, but if there is an elderly person at home, it is more convenient to go out and move around.
Lastly, I would like to talk about the "king of the neighborhood" which is often mentioned by the salesmen.
Many of the rules for choosing a home, a little bit of life experience can be a little bit, developers will not miss any opportunity to create price differences, so there is a neighborhood king of the said.
The biggest difference between the king of the building and other homes is that it occupies the neighborhood's best and unrepeatable location, the surrounding environment, community facilities and amenities. Sunshine, vision, etc. are the best.
Of course, with the king of the building is accompanied by a high price, may be tens of thousands of dollars higher than other houses in the same neighborhood.
Home buyers who are more concerned about price need to try to weigh all aspects and just try to satisfy the aspects they care about most. For example, the elderly and children are more concerned about the noise problem, young workers are more concerned about the transportation convenience problem.
