It is very important to buy a second-hand house and see the house on the spot. What should I check?

Second-hand houses can be bought and live immediately, which is particularly convenient for many people who just need them, and second-hand houses also have mature supporting facilities, which attracts many people to buy them. However, in the second-hand housing transaction, there are many disputes arising from housing quality problems and property rights problems. In order to minimize disputes, it is very important to buy a second-hand house and look at the house on the spot, but what should I check when looking at the house?

Check the situation of the community

1, residential property situation

Pay attention to what services the property provides, consult the owners of the community and understand the service level of the community property. You can also learn about the municipal facilities such as water, electricity, gas and heating in the community. Look at the water quality and pressure of the water supply. Understand the capacity of power supply, whether it is easy to cut off power in summer peak period, etc. Understand the charging standards and payment methods of property fees, gas fees, heating fees, telephone fees and broadband fees. Understand the elevator brand, elevator operation safety and service life, maintenance management and other issues in the community.

2. What is the community environment?

Pay attention to the overall sanitary environment of the community, whether it is clean and tidy. See if the leisure facilities in the community are beautiful, practical and safe. Observe whether there is much dust near the community and whether there is noise inside the community.

3. Surrounding facilities

Pay attention to whether the supporting facilities in and around the community are complete and can meet the needs of daily life. In addition, pay attention to whether there are kindergartens and counterpart schools in the community. In addition, we should understand the public security environment in this area.

4. Residential groups

When looking at the house, you should also observe whether there is graffiti on the stairs or elevator room. Look at this and tell the buyers that this not only represents the management level of the property, but also relates to the quality of the residents in the community. A scribbled wall is a mirror, which may have the characteristics of your neighbor, and neighbors affect your quality of life.

Check the condition of the house itself.

1, apartment structure

Check the original floor plan of the house and compare the present situation of the house to see if there is any change. For example, whether the load-bearing wall has been destroyed and whether it has been illegally built. See whether the layout of the house is reasonable, whether the functional divisions are obvious, whether the area of each functional division is appropriate, and whether the kitchen is bright and sanitary.

2. Orientation of the house

The orientation of the house directly affects the lighting and ventilation of the house. The living room and master bedroom should face south. The orientation of the bathroom and kitchen is not particularly particular, but there should be windows, not darkrooms.

3. Housing quality

When people buy a house, they are very concerned about the quality of the house. When looking at the house on the spot, look at the walls of the house for signs of water leakage such as water stains; See if there are shells and cracks on the wall and ground; Tap the ground and wall with a small hammer to see if there is any empty drum; Check whether the hardware of doors and windows is rusty and whether the doors and windows are flexible; Check whether the sewer pipes are blocked; Try the sound insulation effect of the house.

4, lighting and ventilation effect

Looking at the house on the spot can feel the lighting and ventilation effect of the house. The living room and master bedroom should be well lit, and the kitchen and bathroom should pay attention to the ventilation effect to make the space circulate.

5. Height

The storey height refers to the vertical distance between the upper and lower floors (or floors to floors), and the residential height is measured by floors. Clear floor height refers to the minimum vertical distance between the floor or the ground and the bottom surface of the upper floor. The floor height is generally 2.8 meters. In actual measurement, the net height is measured.

6. Decoration situation

Also check the decoration of the house, whether it is simple, hardcover or rough room. If it is decoration, it depends on whether the decoration quality is up to standard and whether it is your favorite style. In addition, when buying a house, ask the owner whether these decorations, furniture and home appliances are included.

It is very important to buy a second-hand house and see the house on the spot, because the comfort of living in the future depends entirely on it, so you need to learn. If you find something wrong with the house, you can choose not to buy it, so as to avoid all kinds of disputes arising from the quality and property rights of the house.
