Ten great hacks for buying a good home in India. 

1- Check your family n office travel mode first – 

Do u travel a lot via metro, highways, railway stations or airports? Check your last one year then six months trips. Choose your prospective properties according to your mode of travel.Living near railway station when u travel via flights is total useless. Check your priorities that if u wish to take home near office or to the near your kids school or to the nearby locations of your relatives. But not away from all these three at all. It really matters. 

2- Online IP address frauds – 

Keep a pen and paper nearby to take notes of the properties on the beat online property portals. They save ur ip address and when they feel that u r highly interested these portals start increasing that particular property rates slowly. Check urself this point. So note down the property n check with the dealer immediately to check the real prices.

3- Rates – 

Always check low to high priced properties first then only high to law rates and after that by relevance. Check under ur budget first after that little higher side for comparing.

4- Localities and internal securities –

Pay attention to which kind of localities portals are showing. They show small market around but may be this small market is in between 13-14 big societies and you may end up in buying very high priced groceries every month. Also be assure that how is gate securities in colonies or societies. If it contains more than 100 residences there must be issues about visitors. Keep a strict eye for checking these points.

5- Condition – 

Always click on ready to move with pictures first in the options on property portals to see how is the actual look of the property. Ready to move is better option to buy property rather than those who claim they will give in two years but give after three and the half year.

6- Interiors – 

Do not buy property with shining interiors basis. Always try to check the quality of construction. Now a days property dealers buy old flats and with few lakhs worth interiors they start asking for double the cost of property. 

7- Multiple dealers – 

Check same property with multiple portal dealers. They always have variations but their dalal nexus is so strong that they already know that with this particular property who all are dealing in the market. So be honest and tell them truth about prices quoted by others.

8- Local law and order – 

Avoid those societies which are based too much away from the main roads. It makes things difficult for your family to approach necessary things in the time of emergency.Also try to check if it is agricultral land or residnetial as lot many builders make buildings on the corners of river or sea and later on water clogging during monsoon starts.In Hindi itvis called doob area.


9- Buying Options –

 Always check for the property through three options – (1) Online big portals (2) local portals (3) OLX or Quickr. You will be surprised to see the rate differences. Same by asvertisement posted by (1) Owner (2) Builder (3) Agents

Lot many times buying directly from the builders means little extra benefits and buying from the owners means getting extra things and buying from agents means more details of the property. 

10- Last most important thing – Never disclose your financial details online. To nobody. What u earn, which bank is yours and what is your loan plans. There are several tricks for hackers who can do anything to blackmail you or even misuse your personal information.
