You may not always be available during showflats where you can attend to inspect ongoing or newly constructed condominium units. But even then requesting for a house tour should never be done away with.

The available space will determine the kinds of home appliances you can bring into a new property. You should also know the ceiling height, especially if you love chandeliers hanging from your ceiling.

Furnishings

Some condo units may have some furnishings in it, like cabinets, beds, sofas, and other fixtures. If you don’t have any plans of doing away with your present belongings in your present residence, you should be looking for an unfurnished properties. They will surely be less expensive. Otherwise, if you are just starting to live on your own, buying a semi-furnished or fully furnished property will be more convenient.

Lighting and Ventilation

Inspecting these aspects will not only make living in a condo more comfortable but also more efficient. You should check if natural light and air can reach every room of the property. By doing so, you may not be needing to turn on electric devices when you are inside your living quarter.

Electrical Sockets

This may look trivial but it is not. If you do not like extension cords hanging over you or crawling on the floor, sockets should be placed in areas where they are needed. Besides the inconvenience and being eyesores, extension cords can also be causes of accidents.

The View
