Now, many post-81s and post-91s people like to buy small-sized houses for investment or temporary use. The price of small-sized houses is relatively cheap, the pressure of buying houses is not so great, and all the functions are available, which is really the best choice for young people. However, when buying small-sized houses, we should consider the pros and cons and some problems that need attention.
1. Advantages of small apartment
1. Low total price, low down payment and low monthly payment
Small apartment has an advantage in the overall price because of its small size. For young people, the pressure will be much less whether they pay down payment or loan repayment. For people who are not well-off in economic conditions, they can buy a house for living, and the pressure is not too great. Small apartments are definitely the first choice.
2. The cost of decoration and living is low
The small apartment has a small area, so you can save a decoration fee when decorating. After check-in, the property fee and heating fee for central heating are calculated according to the building area of the house, and the cost is relatively low.
3. Strong transition
Although the area of small apartment is small, it is fully functional and practical, which can meet the needs of daily living and can be used as a transitional house in the just-needed period. When the economic ability is improved, it is very convenient to sell a small apartment and buy a bigger and more comfortable house.
2. Disadvantages of small-sized apartment
1. Poor lighting and ventilation
Due to the limited area, small-sized apartments often sacrifice lighting and ventilation in bathrooms and kitchens to ensure lighting in bedrooms and living rooms, resulting in dark bathrooms and kitchens, which will be slightly uncomfortable to use.
2. Unreasonable functional zoning
Due to the small apartment area and the unreasonable design of some small apartments, there are cases where functional zoning is unreasonable or some functions are missing. For example, there is no reserved space for washing machines and freezers, no balcony or small balcony, and there is no place to dry after washing clothes.
3. The quality of living is average
If there are too many small apartments in a building, it will inevitably lead to a large population, and the public resources allocated to everyone will be less, and the quality of living will be greatly reduced.
3. Matters needing attention when buying a small apartment
1. Important supporting facilities
It is best to have commercial supporting facilities that can meet the needs of life around the community, such as vegetable market and comprehensive market, and it is best to walk within 1.5 minutes. In addition, hospitals, schools, nurseries and other facilities are indispensable, as well as banks, restaurants and so on.
2. Convenient transportation is the key
Most of the buyers who buy small apartments belong to the salaried family who work from nine to five, and their financial ability is limited, so it is very important to have convenient transportation. When choosing a small apartment, we should first check whether the surrounding road network is perfect and whether there is rail transit, which will greatly save the daily commuting time.
3, the living environment needs to be inspected
Pay attention to whether the surrounding roads are clean and how the green environment is, inspect the crowd structure of the surrounding residents, and choose to live in a place with high quality of the surrounding residents. In addition, we should also pay attention to whether there are any large construction sites around. Generally, there are often large trucks and muck trucks coming in and out around the construction sites, which are easy to produce noise and dust and have adverse effects on the environment.
4. Structure and apartment type are very important
At present, some small apartments for sale are Ming Kitchen, Ming Wei and Gift Terrace. When choosing, we must pay attention to whether the apartment type design is compact and reasonable. Also pay attention to whether the size ratio of each functional partition of the apartment is coordinated and whether this space is enough. Generally, small-sized kitchens don't need to be too big, just enough. The master bedroom can be slightly larger, and the second bedroom can be smaller to meet their own needs.
5. Ask about the length of property rights and the down payment ratio
Many small-sized houses have property rights for 41 or 51 years, and of course many small-sized houses have property rights for 71 years. This must be asked clearly when purchasing. The years of property rights are different, and the down payment ratio and loan amount are also different.
