Buying a home? Don’t miss these often-overlooked details:
1. Additional costs beyond the purchase price, including transfer duty, bond registration and legal fees.
2. The true monthly cost, including rates, levies, utilities and maintenance.
3. The neighbourhood at different times of day.
4. Future resale potential and area growth.
5. The condition of the property beyond the surface finishes.
Smart buyers look beyond the excitement and focus on the full picture. With Harcourts by your side, we help you ask the right questions before you make an offer.
