What are the advantages of the old community? Some "veteran cadres" really can't get rid of them.

As a second-hand house buyer, have you ever paid attention to the old community? Most of the old residential areas are located in the center of the city, and there are some incomparable supporting conditions for new projects, but there are also some shortcomings caused by age factors. If you are interested in the old community, you can read this article. Look before you buy. You won't suffer.

Advantages of the old community

1, cheap

Price may be the advantage of the old community. By comparison, you should find that the sales unit price of these communities is generally 2000 -5000 yuan lower than that of the surrounding new communities, and the bargaining space is relatively large. Not only that, the property fees, parking fees and other expenses in these communities are also relatively low, which also saves a lot of expenses for the owners in terms of living costs, so that the owners have received tangible benefits.

2. Excellent location

Because the old residential area was built earlier, the geographical location was generally good (because the city had not been expanded at that time), the transportation facilities were perfect and the living facilities were convenient. This is undoubtedly a boon for people who work in the city and don't want to buy suburban real estate. It provides many opportunities for people to buy relatively cheap second-hand houses in familiar areas.

3. The competition in counterpart schools is fierce.

Because the old residential area has a long development time, counterpart schools have a long history of running schools, including some key schools.

4. The price is very attractive

Because the remaining service life of the old community is short, the price of this kind of house is much cheaper than that of the new house in the same area around it. In addition, it is designed as a compact two-bedroom apartment for the elderly with 60-70 square meters. There is no common area such as elevators, so the actual use area is relatively large and the cost performance is high.

5. Great appreciation potential.

With the development of the city, the old residential areas will gradually be replaced by tall new buildings. Once removed, it is possible to get some money compensation or get some real estate. In short, the potential for later appreciation should not be underestimated.

The disadvantages of the old community

1 shabby

Everyone knows this. It should be noted that the greening rate and plot ratio of old residential areas can not meet the requirements of modern people's quality of life, and the building spacing is relatively small, which will definitely affect life.

2. Insufficient parking spaces and poor property management.

The property fee is relatively cheap, but the property service and management are relatively poor, and it is not very good in community health, access control, security, fire protection and so on. Insufficient parking spaces will cause car owners to park indiscriminately. In the early morning, impatient owners often honk their horns because other people's cars are in the way, which will affect the rest of the whole community.

3. Renovation has costs and limitations.

Old houses are generally poorly decorated, especially kitchens and bathrooms. After buying a house, you have to knock out the original decoration and decorate it again. Decoration will also be restricted by the housing structure.

4. The loan period is limited.

General second-hand housing loans, the age of the house can not exceed 30 years, which means that the monthly payment is high and the repayment pressure is high; In the current market, it is difficult to get a mortgage for an old house with property rights of more than 20 years.

5. The quality of the house is difficult to guarantee.

Most of the houses built in the 1990s are brick-concrete structures. Due to long-term use, the quality of houses is difficult to guarantee.

6, easy to get dirty, messy and poor

The houses in the old community are old, broken and old, and residents may be psychologically disgusted with it, and may have the idea that the house is not worth cherishing, so they do not pay attention to maintaining the daily hygiene of the community, resulting in a dirty, chaotic and poor environment of the old house.

Everybody knows this room:

When paying attention to the housing in the old community, buyers need to ask about the remaining service life, understand the quality of the house itself, inspect the supporting facilities and the overall environment of the community, and pay attention to the security measures and the characteristics of the residents in the community. In addition, considering the population composition of their own homes, old second-hand houses generally do not have elevators. If it is a family with old people at home, don't consider such a house.
