In our country, the exchange of an apartment for a private house is not a new type of transaction. In this way, citizens of the Soviet Union improved their living conditions. But now the deal has undergone some changes.

If earlier real estate in the city was much more expensive than outside it, now the situation has changed in the opposite direction. You can immediately exclude the exchange of an apartment for a cottage in a new village. Even if the real estate agency offers you an equivalent exchange, then you should be prepared for additional investments in home decoration and repair of communications. The most affordable, and therefore most common, is the option of an equivalent exchange of a city apartment for a private house, which was built in the 70-80s and is located next to the cottage village, but not on its territory.

Mostly private houses are not on the balance of utilities and other services. Therefore, you should be prepared for the fact that you will have to independently maintain both the house and the territory adjacent to it.

Exchanging an apartment for a private house has the main advantage - the absence of neighbors on the floors. In addition, on a personal plot, over time, you canbuild a gazebo, bathhouse, swimming pool, arrange landscape design, in a word, make it to your own taste. But, on the other hand, to make your dream come true, you will need considerable financial investments and free time.

You need to study the transport accessibility of the place where you are going to buy a house in advance, before making a deal. Of course, if you have a car, then this question disappears, but if you don’t have a car, then you need to take into account the schedule of trains and buses in order to get to the city to work or to shops.

Exchanging an apartment for a private house is a very important step. You should ask in advance if you can apply for permanent registration. A house outside the city should be territorially related to the settlement, in other words, have a permanent address for registration.

Today, many city dwellers dream of exchanging their apartment in the city for a private house. But in order for such a transaction to take place, it is necessary that the options for the proposed transaction would be equivalent. Most of the time it's almost impossible to find them on your own. But, fortunately, agencies have appeared in large cities that specialize in such transactions. For example, exchanging an apartment in the suburbs for a private house will not be a big problem if you apply to such an agency. Most often, its employees do not wait until the interests of the parties concerned coincide. Therefore, a sale and purchase transaction is carried out. First, put up for sale your city property and at the same time select the one that suits youcountry house option.
