50 years of Real estate… Halabi Real Estate is a familyowned company, operating since the 1940’s. Traditionally aiming at the purchase of real estate for investment purposes, Halabi Real Estate was never primarily focused on selling property. Homes and offices on the properties were renovated for renting. In the past decades, the business developed an extensive portfolio of real estate on several locations on the island, including Punda, Scharloo and Otrabanda.
Successfully developing projects such as Harmonie, Villapark Zuurzak, Grote Berg and Bisiña di Papaya In the seventies, project and development activities became part of the company strategy and around this time Promenade Shopping Center was constructed. Project development is now an important element of the company activities.
steps towards your dream house 1. Location
Decide what’s important for you in terms of location. Check out the area for facilities nearby. Is a school close to home essential or is a local supermarket a must?
2. Style Start collecting ideas and
designs and make drawings if you can. A mood board can help and online platforms such as Pinterest provide loads of ideas and inspiration.
3. Regulations Find out if and what regulations apply to the lot you’ve purchased. Do you need to consider certain building restrictions? Keep in mind that you will have to submit paperwork to get the permits in order. Don’t hesitate to ask among family and friends for some help on this part.
4. Architect Choosing the right architect to design your home is crucial. The architect will be translating your ideas into a realistic design. Make sure that you know upfront what you want, which also makes it easier to have a good match with your architect. Do some research, ask references and find out what the architect’s portfolio looks like.
5. Contractor
Determine what you want to do yourself and what needs to be done by a contractor. You will be working together for a while, so make sure that you feel comfortable with the agreements made with a contractor.
