When an edition is made its values sit close to the sales in each zone; the older the edition, the further the market has moved.
How do I check a lot before buying it?
Ask for the land use certificate, the water availability letter and the alignments, read the cadastral plan and the registry, and check slope, access and any condominium rules. Our lot study does all of it in two to four weeks, with a cost range for what fits.
