Welcome to Oliver, a neighbourhood in the city of Edmonton with 6 Pre-Construction buildings with condos for sale.
A very special portion of the real estate market exists in the area of development, or Pre-Construction, condos. These are units that are purchased based on the projected plans for a building that is not yet built. A buyer may visit a temporary showroom, located near to the proposed location of the building to see models and floor plans of the various units the seller hopes to construct, or simply receive a package with this information electronically. Purchasing at this stage allows the buyer to have greater control in the outcome of their unit. They can make a different type of investment and purchase at a lower price per square foot than what is typically available post-construction. If you want to be able to choose your floors, finishes and appliances, at less than the cost to purchase someone else's choices from the past, Pre-Construction condos for sale might appeal to you. It's not often that you have so many design choices when looking to purchase a home. There will be a number of layouts, options for total square footage, number of bedrooms and location within the building to choose from. Usually, this type of customization will require a second investment in renovations, as well as the purchase price of your home.
When taking the leap on a Pre-Construction condo for sale, you'll be given a list of options that you'll be able to customize. Everything in the home will be brand new and they will likely be under warranty. Keep in mind that the developer is speculating on what they believe the final outcomes will be for the unit and building, they require some flexibility, not everything can be fixed into even the best agreements. This can make a good case for looking at the past projects of the developer. How close to their projected dates did they come? Do they have a history of big surprise closing costs or a history of great relationships with their buyers? How have their projects held up over time as places people want to live and as investments. This type of home purchase, more than others, requires a long term deal with your developer. You'll want a long term relationship that is mutually beneficial. Purchasing a unit in a building prior to the work beginning can have some tremendous benefits. It also requires deeper knowledge to arrange this type of purchase.
