The neighborhood reached its peak in the mid-19th century, with a vibrant festive atmosphere. >> 4 TIPS TO HELP YOU CHOOSE THE IDEAL PROPERTY TO BUY: Do not think only about your current marital status. Properties are long-lasting assets. Therefore, it is important to make your choice not only with today in mind, but also with your life plans. It is possible to find houses and apartments of different sizes, and this will also influence the number of bedrooms the property has. If you intend to live alone, consider whether the home you are about to acquire will meet your needs at least in the medium term. A one-bedroom apartment for a single person, for example, could later accommodate a spouse and even a crib. But if starting a family is closer to your reality, it may be ideal to look at 2- or even 3-bedroom properties. In this way, you secure a home that accommodates your life plans. > Location is a relevant factor. Check whether the properties you are considering are well located. This does not necessarily mean being in a central area, but rather having good infrastructure nearby to meet everyday needs and unexpected situations. Get to know the neighborhood: check whether there are pharmacies, bakeries, supermarkets, health clinics, schools, as well as good public transportation coverage. This will be necessary and, in the end, can save you a great deal of effort. > Assess whether the “utilities” meet your needs Number of bathrooms, parking spaces, elevator, accessibility, built-in closets... Each one serves a purpose depending on your needs, and therefore must be taken into account. For those who own cars or motorcycles, not having a parking space can generate high monthly costs that, in the end, will be much more expensive than making a slightly larger investment for these features, for example. The same applies if an apartment does not have a service area that can accommodate a washing machine. With the rush of everyday life, it is not always possible to wash clothes by hand, and the lack of space for a washer can lead to recurring laundry expenses that would make it impractical to cover all costs. Therefore, pay attention to your needs, calculate everything carefully, and make a choice that is better aligned and feasible. > Make sure your dream fits your financial reality. You may dream of having a larger apartment, with a service area, spacious bedrooms, and everything else. However, before you start looking for one, be realistic: assess your financial possibilities. Even with a solid down payment with the help of FGTS, financing can be expensive due to interest rates, and no one knows what tomorrow will bring. For that reason, do not reach higher than you can manage. Evaluate your available budget, run simulations in case of financing, and only then begin your property search. This way, you can align your dream with your reality and avoid committing to something you will not be able to fulfill. By following these tips, you will certainly make a more advantageous deal.
