Looking to build your new home or make a purchase or a built up residential or commercial property? If yes here are some tips which you can use and avoid the common mistakes most buyers do when building a new home.

1: Not choosing the right builder: Not choosing the right builder can be your biggest mistake. With a little research you can choose a good builder even in a bigger city with multiple options. For example with some research you will find it easy to choose best builders in Bangalore.

2: Choosing only popular names: If you are looking at real estate options in a city do not focus only on the popular names. For example you may be surprised to know that most popular builders and developers in Bangalore are also just as guilty of project delays as new developers.

3: Not checking hidden costs: If you are relying only on builder’s word of mouth price you may be in for a surprise. Check all hidden costs and charges to avoid any financial misunderstanding.

4: Not Shortlist enough projects: If you are not short listing enough projects then you are left with little choice. So shortlists projects and then choose the one that suits your needs.

5: Ignoring past performance of developer: Never ignore the past work of the builder ad check the track record by talking to previous customers.

6: Not focusing on area: Do not rely just on your property but also give adequate importance to the area and its surroundings.

7: Overlooking amenities neighborhood: You may have the best property but if there are no amenities nearby your property is not as good as it may seem. Do not overlook the neighborhood and amenities on offer.

8: Not checking civic infrastructure: Check the civic infrastructure near your property. You do not want to invest in property which has no drainage or roads nearby.

9: Compromising on price: Do not compromise on price if you are getting the added facilities and amenities.

10: Not making a futuristic purchase: Make sure your property purchase remains in good stead for a long term. Invest in future ready projects and areas instead of in old reconstruction works.
