When you purchase an apartment you put a lot of thought and research into the process. Metro cities like Bangalore, Mumbai, Chennai, etc. have the urban chic vibe and tall skyscrapers that can lure you any day. With the increasing number of skyscrapers, the floor on which you purchase flats in Bangalore and other such cities has also become very crucial. This is why we list down 7 factors below that will help you make the right decision while buying an apartment.
- Security and privacy concerns
This is a major factor to consider while purchasing apartments in Bangalore. It is usually considered that flats on the ground and lower floors do not offer privacy and the necessary security required when living in an urban area. Higher floors offer you the perfect private and secure life that you would want for yourself and your loved ones.
- Fire safety
Ensure that your building has an occupancy certificate (O.C) for all the said floors. This asserts that the building has been constructed as per the permissible plans and local laws which include fire safety.
- Lifts & staircases
There are many apartments in Devanahalli that can give you a good lifestyle. However, choose the floor that you want to live on according to the needs of your family. Lower floors are better in case you have older family members. Also, ensure that the building has a backup generator for the lift in case of power shut down.
- Floor deviations
Make sure that the apartment you are purchasing is from a reputed builder. This will make sure that there are no illegal deviations from the building plan which usually happens with the top floor.
- Vantage points & rentals
If you are looking for a good view from your apartment, you could opt for a top-floor apartment especially when the view is sea-facing or some other scenic area. Higher floors will give the best vantage points in this case. Also, if you are purchasing the flat for investment, make sure you think of a higher floor or a view that will fetch you good rent.
- Mobile network
In some areas, the network tends to get weak on higher floors. Make sure you have an adequate mobile network in your high-rise apartments before investing.
- Light & ventilation
Living on a higher floor does have its advantages like better
light and ventilation. The kind of apartment you want to live in is a personal
choice but these factors will determine that you make the right decision and
real estate investment!
