Things to consider when choosing where to live with your kids

1

Price

It goes without saying that price is the main basis for choosing a home closer to the city, a new township or in an older established neighbourhood. For family with children, the consideration takes a whole different dimension. So taking family expenditure into consideration will help you to narrow down your location options.

2

Location

Is the new house near to a school? How about babysitters and other amenities? Do any of my family members live nearby? These are some of the questions that you would want to consider when it comes to choosing the best location to live with your kids. That’s not all. Beyond these questions you may also want to consider the environment that you would like your children to be raised in.

3

Safety & Security

Most would agree that safety is paramount. No parents would like to raise their kids in areas where safety is an issue or in neighbourhoods that are notorious for security breaches. It would be wise to consider to purchasing a home that is installed with safety features or one that is located inside a gated and guarded community.

4

Type of Home

Which type of house is right for your and your family? You may pitch a highrise property against a landed property and weigh the pros and cons. It would be worthwhile to consider the family size and plans for expansion as well but these may not necessarily be a concern for young parents because the first home is usually a temporary means to an end before purchasing a dream home.

5

6

Education

As we discussed earlier in point number two, distance to an educational institute is a key consideration for deciding on the location. For most parents, a reputable school, which is easily accessible, is a top priority. Needless to say, neighbourhoods with this feature becomes a major draw. Moreover, developments with good schools in the vicinity tend to mature faster.

Lifestyle facilities and amenities

We cannot stress enough the impact of facilities and amenities to your overall lifestyle and wellbeing. Areas with facilities such as jogging paths, cycling tracks, basketball courts act as strong motivators to lead a healthy lifestyle – but how about other amenities? Missing out on some features such as nearby grocery stores may just be a minor inconvenience but missing out on key institutions such as a hospital can be problematic.

NEW COMPARISON OF VS NEW VS SUB-SALE SUB-SALE PROPERTY

A

spiring homeowners today are faced with two options – to either purchase a new property or dig deep into their pockets for a sub-sale home. While each type has its own advantages, homebuyers should give careful consideration in weighing their options before taking the plunge.

How deep is your pocket? Needless to say, one of the main factors that a homebuyer should consider is price. Although house size and location contribute to the total cost, new homes are normally more expensive than sub-sale homes. That being said, new homes are often made attractive with numerous financing options as well as rebates from developers while sub-sale homes require the buyers to seek out own loans from financial institutions.

As for turnaround time, sub-sale homes have an upper hand since they are available immediately while buyers of new homes may be required to wait for the project to receive its certificate of completion.

Whichever you choose, you can opt to rent the property out or use it for your own stay. Don’t forget that the amount of rent may vary depending on location, house condition and available surrounding amenities. So which of the two options will be your choice? Need more help deciding?

WHY THEY WILL NEVER OWN A HOUSE?

the slot While the habit of saving for the future is a virtue, over committing to it may in turn be very costly to your property aspirations. The property market has indicated a steady growth in price and value for decades and is poised to do so for years to come. Hence, failing to commit to a piece property now could only mean ending up with a much smaller home in the future because your savings may not grow exponentially as the property market does.

Most of us are guilty of being a window-shopper once in a while. The options are in abundance but one could end up making a cardinal mistake of losing out on a good deal if no prompt action is taken. It is important to remain true to the reason of house hunting and to make objective decisions, or all the houses will be snatched up while you find yourself stuck in a window-shopping loop.
