Advantages and disadvantages of first-hand and second-hand houses

(I) Advantages of second-hand housing

1. Price and transaction

Price is the primary consideration when buying a house, and the price of second-hand houses is the main reason for competition. Because generally speaking, in the same area, the price of newly built housing will be higher than that of second-hand housing, and the price of new housing is generally fixed. It is impossible to bargain between individuals and developers, but the price of second-hand housing can be negotiated with the homeowner. In addition, you can find out whether the house has a certificate and whether it can be traded by checking the second-hand housing market. For home buyers, it is not easy to be deceived, and they can have a clear idea about the property rights and transfer.

2. Housing quality and transaction risks

The issue of house quality is very critical. Second-hand houses have been in use for several years, so the quality of the house is obvious at a glance, and many potential problems can be easily discovered. At the same time, home buyers can also learn about the quality of the house by visiting surrounding neighbors. Moreover, second-hand houses are sold as completed buildings, so there will be no "unfinished" projects, so the risk is reduced.

3. Choose a space

When purchasing a second-hand house, there is a wide range of choices and what you see is what you get. Buyers can make their own choices based on their own preferences: whether it is the transportation facilities in the community or the layout of the house itself, these are all things that can be seen in real terms. If you buy a new home, you won’t know what your neighbors will be like. However, when buying a second-hand house, you can first investigate what kind of people live nearby and see who your neighbors will be in the future.

4. Location and configuration

Compared to many new houses that are still located "in that faraway place", the locations of second-hand houses are mostly very good. Traveling is relatively convenient, the surrounding transportation is relatively complete, and the community where the second-hand house is located has undergone many years of development. All kinds of living facilities are becoming more and more complete, and life will be more convenient.

5. Indoor pollution and decoration noise

The biggest problem facing new houses is excessive pollution, while after several years of use, the harmful substances in second-hand houses have basically evaporated. The house has almost no pollution sources, and the health of home buyers is also protected. When buying a second-hand house, neighbors will move in at different times and will not renovate the house at the same time. This can avoid the noise caused by decoration.

(II) Disadvantages of second-hand housing

1. Old and poor property management

This old includes old houses and old properties. The house looks old from the outside and the internal structure is not very reasonable. In this way, the quality of living may be reduced, and the old house will also incur certain house maintenance costs, increasing the property maintenance cost, and the actual house purchase cost will also increase.

In the early years, the property management of residential communities was relatively poor, and the overall management capabilities were relatively poor. The maintenance of community facilities, greening, sanitation, etc. were worrying. There are not enough parking spaces, and security issues in second-hand housing communities are also a key point that buyers need to consider when viewing houses.

2. House age and loan

The age of a second-hand house will also affect the loan. Currently, banks have stricter loan requirements for second-hand houses. The age of a second-hand house is an important consideration for bank loan approval. Generally speaking, commercial loans require that the sum of the loan term and the age of the property cannot be greater than 50 years. Therefore, if the house is relatively old, it will be more difficult to get a loan from a bank.

2. Things to note when renovating a second-hand house

1. Before renovating a second-hand house, remember to let the decoration workers conduct a water-tightness test on the bathroom to test the bathroom's waterproof ability. If water leakage occurs, be sure to let the workers re-do the waterproofing. After the waterproofing work is completed, wait until the floor is completely dry before laying tiles.

2. Generally, doors and windows must be replaced after a certain period of use, because once the doors and windows are deformed, the safety of items in the house will not be guaranteed. If the doors and windows are deformed, consumers should be able to replace them.

3. Nowadays, families need to use more and more electrical appliances in their daily lives. Therefore, when renovating a second-hand house, it is necessary to appropriately increase the number of switches and sockets. Before renovation, you should make a good plan and fix the positions of switches and sockets.

Everyone has seen the advantages and disadvantages of second-hand houses, so you will have more and better choices when buying a house, and you must buy a house that you like and is suitable for you. There are many things to pay attention to when renovating a second-hand house.
