Checklist before buying a property

Buying a property is a big decision. To avoid unpleasant surprises, there are a few points you should check in advance. Our checklist helps you keep track.

Before buying, you should consider the following:

  • Location and surroundings: check infrastructure, transport links and the neighbourhood.
  • Building condition: look at the fabric of the building, the need for refurbishment and energy efficiency.
  • Additional costs: calculate property transfer tax, notary and agency fees as well as ongoing operating costs.
  • Management: find out about the property manager, the maintenance reserve fund and any upcoming resolutions.

It is worth bringing in a surveyor before buying and viewing the property several times. HV Purkarthofer accompanies you to viewings, checks documents and advises you during negotiations. That way you make a well-founded decision.

With good preparation you buy safely and without worry. Use our checklist and let our specialists support you. Get in touch for individual advice.
