Our 7 buying advices.

Savings- Expenses – Financing

Whether we like it or not, we cannot afford to buy without having some money saved up. Normally, any financial institution willing to grant a mortgage requires a percentage down payment, which usually amounts to 20% of the sale value of the property in question.

In addition, there are costs involved in the sale, and these must also be borne by the buyer. These costs usually amount to 10 % of the purchase value of a property.

In total, and with some exceptions, we will have to count on this 30% to be able to afford the purchase.

Where do you want to live?

First of all, we must know where we prefer to live in the chosen location. We must be clear about whether we want the beach, the mountains, the city centre or the outskirts of the city, and on the other hand, we must know the type of property where you would like to live, whether it is a flat, a semi-detached house, a detached house or a palatial estate, as well as the essential characteristics of our future home.

The possibilities available to us will be very different depending on what you decide, and it will save you time and the most important thing… peace of mind!!

If you have read the above tips, you will have been able to narrow down the maximum price you can spend on the purchase of your new home. This is extremely important, as it will help you avoid fruitless searches and save you frustration.

If you need a mortgage to cover the purchase, the best option is to go to different banks to see what options they offer and how much the purchase could cost.

Don’t start your search without having a clear idea, because we always fall in love with properties that are out of our budget!!!!

Notary

All the hard work has been done, the only thing left is the signing of the deed of sale and, if applicable, the mortgage deed, at the notary’s office.

To do this, we will request all the necessary documentation for the successful completion of the act, such as the certificate of the community of owners, the energy certificate …. and, finally, we will accompany you at the signing, until you leave the notary’s office with a smile on your face and a new life.
