But the new needs of buyers for houses for sale have made other aspects take center stage when choosing one property or another. At Aliseda Real Estate we tell you what they are.

The purchase of a new home influences our way of life, so we must choose well and always taking into account several factors. And, although there is no specific formula, experts determine that the process of purchasing a home usually lasts between three and six months.

What aspects do Spaniards take into account when buying a house?

Housing situation:


The location of a property is the most important point when looking for a house. In addition, you can find homes for all tastes, as there are those who look for quiet and safe neighborhoods and those who prefer to live in the center of their city.

However, homes located on the outskirts or outskirts of cities have gained points in the last two years. Another decisive aspect is that there is good communication with public transport and basic services such as schools, health centers, cultural centers or shops.

Housing distribution:

The dimensions and distribution of a home are also key factors when thinking about purchasing a property. There is an increasing focus on open spaces that allow visual relief and make better use of the square meters of the home.

Regarding second-hand homes, the possibility of removing or modifying partitions is another aspect to which special attention is usually paid before deciding.

When it comes to specific rooms, today larger kitchens connected to other rooms such as the living room are preferred. The current trend seeks spacious rooms, with spaces to use as an office, dressing room or gym.

Position:

In the case of homes located in buildings, the lower floors or attics are always better valued than the intermediate floors. Likewise, orientation, views, natural lighting or the availability of an elevator are issues that will also influence the purchase decision.

Exteriors and common areas:

In recent years, homes where you can get fresh air have also been revalued. Apartments with a terrace, patio and garden, even if they are small, earn many points. And the same goes for those that are located in urbanizations with children's facilities, swimming pools or sports courts.

Energy efficiency:

All homes for sale must have an accredited energy efficiency certificate that every buyer must receive. Thus, it is also very important to take into account its degree of energy certification, since its orientation and other factors will make a significant economic difference in electricity and heating costs.
