New build or renovated old building: which is the better choice? 

Anyone looking to buy a property is often faced with the question: new build or renovated old building? Both options have their advantages and disadvantages. The decision depends on personal preferences, the planned use and the financial possibilities.

Advantages of a new building
A new build offers the latest standards in energy efficiency, floor plan design and technology. Buyers can often have a say in the fittings and design and benefit from low maintenance costs in the first few years. There are also statutory warranty claims for construction defects, which offer additional security.

The charms of a renovated old building
Renovated old buildings impress with their charm and often generous room heights. Anyone who values a special atmosphere will find what they are looking for here. With careful refurbishment, old buildings can also be energy-efficient. However, buyers should check carefully whether the refurbishment work has been carried out professionally and completely in order to avoid later costs.

Price differences
New buildings are often more expensive than comparable old buildings due to the high construction costs. However, depending on their condition, old buildings incur additional modernization costs that should be taken into account when financing.

Conclusion
The choice between a new build and an old building is a question of taste and priorities. If you value modern technology and ease of planning, a new build is the right choice. Anyone who prefers character and atmosphere and carefully examines their options will find a special property in a renovated old building.
