How to Select the Best Location for Your New Home
7 Smart ways to find the right location for your home. Survey several locations, check listings, talk to real estate agents & research neighborhoods.
Selecting the best location to buy a home or invest in real estate is the foundation of your entire living experience or investment. It’s not just about the geographical location, there is neighbourhood, educational opportunities, engaging amenities, safety and growth potential. Beyond convenience, this decision influences our daily lives and financial well-being.
Here are some factors to consider when house-hunting:
- Check for good Telecom Service
Is it the most essential factor to consider while looking for a home? Well, most often, we forget to check this aspect of the home search. Hence, it’s at the top. With central zones of Tier 1 cities getting congested, suburbs are gaining prominence in real estate development and investment.
Of course, developers make every effort to ensure the availability of appropriate infrastructure such as roads, electricity, water, sewage and all that, yet it’s vital to check how fast and reliable telecommunications services are in the area.
Basic infrastructures and good communication services such as high-speed internet, TV and telephonic services directly impact our comfort and ease of daily life. You need to make sure that at least the essential services have network coverage in the desired location. Think about a life without the privilege of Zomato, Swiggy, Zepto, Blinkit, etc.
- Check on the Security and Safety of the Locality
Safety in, but not outside? The gated communities are great for safety and privacy, but what about the locality? Check the locality’s history, crime rate and the promptness of police and women’s protection services.
Survey the apartment or villa’s safety and security approvals and specifications such as the fire protection system, nearby first-aid services, adequate and reliable lighting and security systems such as surveillance cameras, intercom, etc. Big Banyan Palm Meadows, offering 3 BHK villas in Hosur, features the highest safety standards with 2 nos. dedicated surveillance cameras and digital locks with monitors.
- Access to Quality Healthcare
When it’s a matter of health, every minute and kilometre matters. When zeroing in on the location you plan to buy a home, check on the proximity and congestion of traffic lines to healthcare facilities, especially in Bengaluru– multispecialty hospitals, clinics and veterinary. Buildiko Spring Woods Courtyard 4 BHK villa on Sarjapur Main Road is conveniently close to more than 5 multispecialty hospitals.
- Are There Any Good Educational Institutions Close By?
If it isn’t for you, it’s best from the resale point of view. Investors and homebuyers with kids often prefer to buy a home conveniently close to good educational institutions. Sri Balaji Urban Retreat 4 BHK Villa off Sarjapur is located right in front of Azim Premji University. Then, Vilara’s Legacy 3 BHK apartments in Sarjapura-Attibele Road and Nyra Sunterra Solar-powered 4 BHK villas off Sarjapur are accessible to more than 15 international schools and institutions.
- Good Connectivity and Transportation
The best location for your home is not on an uneven, narrow, dimly lit road. Metro is one of the best transportation there is, seamlessly and swiftly connecting you to the rest of the city.
If you are looking to buy an apartment in Bengaluru, consider Sri Lakshmi Vallabha 3 BHK apartments in Konankunte. It’s in the prime location, just 3 minutes from Konankunte Metro Station and Forum South Mall. Not just that, it’s conveniently 3 minutes away from hospitals, schools, petrol pumps, banks, temples, parks, colleges and more. It’s 30 minutes from Electronic City and Global Village Tech Park. Talk about, convenience and connectivity at its peak.
- Budget
A compact 2 BHK apartment in Electronic City might be more expensive than a spacious 3 BHK apartment in Sarjapur. Keeping a particular figure in mind can help while taking home loans. It won’t be beneficial to take a bigger loan when you get home on a premium budget, not taking a minimum loan to avoid high EMI and ending up buying a home on a luxury budget.
Of course, stretching your budget is fine if you find an irresistible home at a prime location but it’s essential to remember real estate is a long-term investment and should not be stretched beyond what cannot be managed.
- Growth Potential of the Area
Developing areas are witnessing a burgeoning growth. Buying a home in areas like Devanahalli and Off Sarjapur promises bigger homes at the best price and great appreciation potential. GMC AeroSquare 3 BHK apartments in Devanahalli are spacious with the highest carpet area in the locality just 10 minutes away from Bengaluru International Airport.
