Questions for you

Critical questions to ASK YOURSELF at this point are

  • Can I afford to keep up payments after making the initial outlay?If not, you may lose your home
  • Can I afford to cover the costs of maintenance of my property and my share of the maintenance and management of the common parts of the building?

Looking at properties

You can find properties advertised in newspapers, solicitors' property centres, estate agents, and on the internet. Newly-built properties are often advertised directly by the builder or the estate agent acting for the builder.

Questions to ASK YOURSELF

  • Would renting be more economical than buying?
  • What are my needs: number of bedrooms, special facilities, transport, schools, area, neighbourhood type?
