Check whether the property you intend to buy is affected by any town planning zones. If you intend to build a house in a certain area, you may find that the building density is so low that you will not be able to erect a satisfactory unit. In addition, the zones may exclude the use you have in mind in that locality.There have been cases where a person acquired his dream holiday spot only to find out afterwards that it was sited within an animal farming zone of the parish in question (which implied that his neighbour could very well be a pigstry).
Services: Experience has proved that it is difficult for co-owners to agree on the common servicing of the blocks. It is therefore advisable, especially if you are buying in a large block, to prefer to buy where the block has the lowest common services bill. Central heating has proved to be a major problem and the cause of many quarrels amongst co-owners. Avoid, also, flats which have common hot water facilities.
Prices are usually quoted as pounds per sq. metre. It is important, however, to ascertain the square metres of which area you are paying for. Certain developers include part of the common areas (staircases, lifts etc) while others include the verandahs and so on. If therefore, you are shopping around for the right price, make sure that you are comparing the same area.
The best approach in buying your cottage is to visit the village of your choice yourself and seek information from the village muchtar (the chairman of the village parish). Estate agents may prove helpful but use them as a second choice. It is evident that the less popular the village is by foreigners, the lower the cottage's price.
Developers usually offer two-storey villas with three to four bedrooms, with two bathrooms, living/dining room and kitchen with breakfast area. Often the option of a swimming pool is also given.Prices vary according to the location and area of land involved.
