Reasons to never buy an unfinished house

There are many options on sale now. Among them you can find offers to buy an unfinished house. Is it worth buying such houses or is it better to bypass such ads?

The plus is that these options are cheaper. This is what attracts. But before buying, you need to inspect the house, make out the "filling" and identify all the flaws. To do this, it is better to invite a specialist who understands and will be able to evaluate the object, tell the prospects for construction, how much money will be required in the future. But even a specialist cannot 100% assess the quality of the building.

Such a purchase can be risky. The downside is that you didn't choose the project. There may be violations of construction technology. These errors may prevent construction from being completed. There may be problems with the administration, on the part of fire supervision, etc.

Pay attention to the date when the advertisement for the sale of the unfinished house was submitted. If it cannot be sold for 1-2 years in a row, then it is worth considering and completely abandoning such a purchase. Good unfinished options sell quickly - within a year.

From the legal point of view, it is necessary to find out whether the seller really is the owner of the land or the leased land. We need to find out the legitimacy of the construction.

The land should have a status for housing construction, and not for summer cottage construction. Otherwise, it will be difficult to coordinate everything with the administration, and in the end you will be forced to sell the site.

It is important to find out if there are burdensome circumstances. If you decide to buy an unfinished one, then it is better to pay a lawyer to learn all the details.

The risk is minimal when the house is completed, communications are connected, but there is no interior decoration. Most likely, the building has already been registered and all documents are available.

If only the "box" is ready, then it is better not to purchase such an unfinished one. Construction has stopped, materials are affected by frost and moisture. The frame will not be strong, the masonry will crack, mold will appear on the walls, etc. Many parts of the house will need replacing.

Is there a benefit? Practice shows that the total cost of buying and completing construction work can be more expensive than buying a finished home or building one from scratch. Waste time and money by purchasing unfavorable unfinished construction.
