The entire world has been hit by the Corona virus pandemic and looking for a new house during Covid-19 can be a difficult task. There are several things that you should take care of before deciding to shift to a new home. Being well established property builders in Bangalore we are here to guide you through house hunting during a pandemic.

Start your search online

Safety comes first. Before you book that cab to go on a house hunting tour, wait. During these times it is better if you start your search online. Make a list of your requirements and look for suitable options. You should also consider doing virtual tours of the house if possible. Going to the place yourself should be your last resort.

Pick a safe neighborhood

Whether you’ve always wanted an apartment in Whitefield or your friend who’s been asking you to move in stays in an apartment in Sarjapur, while looking for flats in Bangalore during a pandemic, make sure you pick a good neighborhood. A neighborhood that’s not close to a containment zone and a less crowded place where people are strict about maintaining social distancing is ideal.

Health and Safety

You must make sure that when you’re moving into a new place you act responsibly. Having lots of people over daily and organizing parties which will cause concern in your neighbors as well as your landlord should be avoided. Make sure you are staying safe and keeping others safe as well. Priorities your health and be safe.

Be patient and understanding

Looking for a house during a pandemic is not going to be easy. People will be concerned about their own safety and will be reluctant to have tenants. So, during this time be patient and understanding. You should try to convince them that you will do your best and will follow all Covid-19 protocol and you won’t jeopardize your own or their safety. Any health documents or apps, be prepared with all the requirements.

Roommate

If you’re planning on moving to a new place with your friends or a place that already has other tenants, make sure you all are on the same page. Everyone should be following all the safety measures and no carelessness should be tolerated. Maintaining social distance inside the house is also important, so you should be moving in with people who are understanding of how grave the situation is and are willing to follow the required measures.
