Sea view real estate
Before buying real estate close to the sea, Adv. Nadler advises that a buyer must bear in mind that the corrosion to buildings that are located near to the edge of the sea is substantial. "Maintenance issues are important factors to consider because of the dust and sea spray. You should also be aware that there are higher maintenance costs involved in owning an apartment near the sea arising from dust, dirt, corrosion and external maintenance to the property.
It's also very important to have proper and ongoing maintenance to the property and this incurs a substantial cost. So if you calculate the apartment price whilst factoring in the higher maintenance costs the fee per square meter of the property would be a higher fee per square meter calculated in the purchase price and may be a lot greater than may be anticipated.
