In our country, the exchange of an apartment for a private house is not a new type of transaction. In this way, the citizens of the Soviet Union improved their living conditions . But now the deal has undergone some changes.
If before real estate in the city was much more expensive than outside, now the situation has changed in the opposite direction. You can immediately exclude the exchange of an apartment for a cottage in a new village. Even if you are offered an equivalent exchange at a real estate agency, you should be prepared for additional investments in home decoration and repair of communications. The most affordable, and therefore most often encountered, is the option of an equivalent exchange of a city apartment for a private house, which was built in the 70-80s and is located next to the cottage village, but not in its territory.
Mostly private houses do not stand on the balance of utilities and other services. Therefore, you should be prepared for the fact that you have to independently maintain both the house and the territory adjacent to it.
The exchange of apartments for a private house has the main advantage - the absence of neighbors on the floors. In addition, over time you can build a gazebo, a bathhouse, a swimming pool, arrange landscaping, in a word, make it to your own taste.
But, on the other hand, to realize your dreams come true, you will need considerable financial investments and free time.
You need to study the transport accessibility of the place where you intend to purchase a house in advance of the transaction. Of course, if you have a car, this question disappears, but if you don’t have a car, then you need to take into account the timetable for trains and buses in order to get to the city to work or to shops.
Exchange of an apartment for a private house is a very important step. You should ask in advance if you can apply for a permanent registration. A house outside the city should belong territorially to the locality, in other words, have a permanent address for registration.
Today, many city residents dream of exchanging their apartment in the city for a private house. But in order for such a transaction to take place, it is necessary that the options for the proposed transaction would be equivalent. Most often, it is almost impossible to independently pick them up. But, fortunately, agencies have appeared in large cities that specialize in such transactions. For example, exchanging an apartment in the suburbs for a private house will not be a big problem if you contact such an agency.
Most often, its employees do not wait until the interests of interested parties coincide. Therefore, they carry out a purchase and sale transaction. First, your urban real estate is put up for sale and at the same time they select the option of a house that suits you in the country.
Exchange of an apartment for a private house is an opportunity to live in the fresh air, have your own plot of land on which you can grow some environmentally friendly vegetables for your family or plant flower beds with beautiful flowers. This is a great opportunity to gather old friends and relax from the hustle and bustle.
