Apartment with or without repairs: expert explained how not to overpay when buying real estate.
Real estate expert Eduard Brazas noted that when buying an apartment for further renting, both options should be considered: ready renovation or property 'after builders'. The first option allows for faster profit, but the second may provide more creative freedom, although it requires more effort and time.
Experts recommend considering apartments in new buildings that have not been put into operation for the first investment in real estate. Such objects may have cosmetic repairs, finishing documents, and be available at a lower price than the market. The choice between ready renovation and property 'after builders' should be based on personal needs and the aim of purchasing real estate.
Ukrainians are advised to carefully consider the choice between ready renovation and property 'after builders'. Both options have their advantages, and they should be weighed based on personal needs and the aim of buying a property.
