How do I choose between 2 homes ?
When you're looking for a place to rent, you may find yourself hesitating between two properties that appeal to you. Sometimes, the hardest part isn't finding one, but choosing one! To put an end to your hesitations and determine which property will suit you best, it's important to ask yourself a few simple questions.
Taking a step back
First of all, take the time to think things through and draw up a list of important criteria such as price, geographical location and practical aspects of the property, such as proximity to shops and public transport. To make an informed decision, try to imagine what your daily life would be like in each home, whether on weekdays or weekends. You might ask yourself if you could see yourself spending a winter evening there, or if you could entertain friends or family. Try to determine whether the property will suit your lifestyle and day-to-day expectations. Being realistic and projecting yourself into the future will help you make the right choice.
Have you fallen in love?
If you've fallen in love with one of the properties, it may not be what you had in mind: it may be too small, too expensive, not bright enough, or located in a neighborhood that doesn't match your preferences. Be careful not to overlook all potential shortcomings, and be pragmatic. To do this, write down your criteria and assess the extent to which they are met, whether completely, partially or if they are lacking. It's also important to calculate your budget so as not to make a decision that would put you in financial difficulty.
Project yourself
Don't forget to prioritize your needs and expectations when choosing your future home. Of course, a home may be beautifully decorated or have an attractive layout, but that shouldn't make you forget the essentials: surface area, exposure, number of bedrooms, size of bathroom, proximity to shops and public transport, etc. Similarly, when it comes to price, a low rent doesn't necessarily mean the best option. Although saving is important, it may sometimes be preferable to increase your budget slightly to preserve a certain quality of life.
