Amenities To Look For While Buying a Flat

Every Mumbaikar dream of owning a flat of his own, especially in a city like Mumbai, which helps many aspiring individuals realize and fulfil their dreams. Before investing your hard-earned money in a flat, some factors need to be taken into consideration before making the investment.

Does the building have security?

We should never compromise on the safety and well being of ourselves and our family members and we should do whatever it takes to keep them protected at all times. It is therefore important to invest in a flat, where the building and society have basic facilities such as around the clock security, CCTV cameras that are strategically placed inside the building premises and that provides coverage of every nook and corner inside the building premises. Added benefits such as an intercom service in every flat, where you can connect with your building’s security guard conveniently and a register to log and record every visitor’s information.

Fitness and recreational centre:

Gone are the days where one would need to subscribe to an annual Gym membership, as flats across the city, especially flats in vile Parle East, are offering services such as Gyms, swimming pools, fitness and recreational facilities, gardens and play zones for children, all within the convenience of the building premises. Not does it make sense to invest in such a flat, that provides all these facilities, but also helps you get into shape, all within the comfort of your building.

Does it meet fire safety norms?

Another major safety precaution that every new building needs to take, is to ensure that the building has sufficient fire exits and provides fire extinguishers strategically placed all across the building. As the Government has made fire safety norms more stringent and mandatory, you should check if your building meets and exceeds the basic guidelines.

Given that flats in Mumbai now demand a premium price, buyers across the city have now begun demanding these amenities be included in the building. So if you are someone looking to purchase a flat in Mumbai, then you should see to it that some, if not all of the above-mentioned facilities are provided along with your flat.
