The Mauritius real estate market teems with plenty of residential choices, especially for foreign buyers. Thus, when you buy a house in Mauritius or in any other market for that matter, finding the perfect match can be a challenge.

Choosing the right home takes a lot of research and asking the right questions. This way you’ll become confident that you’re making the right decision on the substantial investment involved.

To help build your home-buying inputs here are four important questions you have to thresh out with your agent or realtor.

How much is my budget?

It’s but logical to first understand how much your finances can afford in a home purchase. Besides the property’s tag price, you also have to consider additional purchase costs, such as registration fee, attorney’s fee, property tax, homeowners association dues, and maintenance costs.

What’s the residence that fits my lifestyle best?

You will have to establish your preference on the residential type that’s a perfect fit for your lifestyle. The choices that you’ll have in Mauritius include villas, apartments, and penthouses. You’ll also have to determine the residential location best suited for your daily routine. The architectural design that meets your taste or preference is another element to consider.

What are the home inclusions?

Learn everything about the residence you’re buying. Ask the seller’s agent about the home’s fixtures, such as cabinets, faucets and window blinds. Check also about upgrade or extras included in the deal. You can buy a house in Mauritius, which is move-in ready and come complete with modern and stylish essential appliances. High-end developments on the island like those of 2Futures offer many amenities like private pools and sports facilities.

What’s the neighbourhood like?

A home purchase is a long-term commitment. So, it would be best to learn in advance about the neighbourhood that you will be moving in. It’s extremely important that you like or can adjust to the environment where you’ll be spending a timespan upwards of 10 years. Actual visits of the neighbourhood you’re eyeing could be a challenge now, however, because of the coronavirus pandemic.

So, you will have to rely more on your real estate agent to assess if a certain neighbourhood is a fit for you. The internet is also a great research source to check on local communities and homeowners’ associations. Some neighbourhoods may even have official websites or social media presence wherein you can directly interact with current residents.
