It is only until later down the line, post move-in day and after unpacking that last box that those \u2018little things\u2019 that were neglected during the decision-making process become, well, much bigger little things.\r\n\r\nIf you\u2019ve managed to get here before beginning Spanish your house hunt, you are in luck. SuiteLife has compiled a list of 6 Important but Often Overlooked Deciding Factors that will save you time, money and trouble when house hunting in Barcelona!\r\n<h2>1. Cell Reception<\/h2>\r\nBad cell reception can become an issue for new tenants, particularly for those that occasionally work remotely or entirely from home. Cell service is important for WiFi routers too as carriers are increasingly adopting WiFi calling in order to expand their network coverage and customer interface.\r\n\r\n<a href=\"http:\/\/suitelife.com\/s\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/cell-reception.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7437\" src=\"http:\/\/suitelife.com\/s\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/cell-reception.jpg\" alt=\"cell reception\" width=\"600\" height=\"347\" srcset=\"https:\/\/suitelife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/cell-reception.jpg 600w, https:\/\/suitelife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/cell-reception-300x174.jpg 300w, https:\/\/suitelife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/cell-reception-310x179.jpg 310w, https:\/\/suitelife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/cell-reception-135x78.jpg 135w, https:\/\/suitelife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/cell-reception-485x280.jpg 485w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a>\r\n<h3>2. Water Pressure (and while you\u2019re at it temperature too)<\/h3>\r\nTo avoid having to choose between \u2018Behold the Power of the Sun\u2019 and \u2018Dribbles from Below Zero\u2019, turn on the shower during your viewing to check up on water pressure and to check the time it takes to go between hot and cold.\r\n\r\n<a href=\"http:\/\/suitelife.com\/s\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/pressure-water-water-pressure.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7443\" src=\"http:\/\/suitelife.com\/s\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/pressure-water-water-pressure.jpg\" alt=\"pressure-water-water-pressure\" width=\"622\" height=\"505\" srcset=\"https:\/\/suitelife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/pressure-water-water-pressure.jpg 622w, https:\/\/suitelife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/pressure-water-water-pressure-300x244.jpg 300w, https:\/\/suitelife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/pressure-water-water-pressure-310x252.jpg 310w, https:\/\/suitelife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/pressure-water-water-pressure-135x110.jpg 135w, https:\/\/suitelife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/pressure-water-water-pressure-485x394.jpg 485w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 622px) 100vw, 622px\" \/><\/a>\r\n<h4>3. Socket Failures<\/h4>\r\nNothing quite like a room with no functioning sockets. Trust us and get testing on those outlets during your visit to avoid having to call out electricians in your first week to repair outlet failures.\r\n\r\n<a href=\"http:\/\/suitelife.com\/s\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/plugs.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-7436\" src=\"http:\/\/suitelife.com\/s\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/plugs-1024x683.png\" alt=\"House Hunting in Barcelona\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" srcset=\"https:\/\/suitelife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/plugs.png 1024w, https:\/\/suitelife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/plugs-300x200.png 300w, https:\/\/suitelife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/plugs-310x207.png 310w, https:\/\/suitelife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/plugs-135x90.png 135w, https:\/\/suitelife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/plugs-485x323.png 485w, https:\/\/suitelife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/plugs-660x440.png 660w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a>\r\n<h5>4. Commuting Time<\/h5>\r\nIf you\u2019re new to the area, it\u2019s probably a good idea to have a go at commuting during rush-hour to get a real perspective on what to expect once you\u2019re all moved in. It can avoid hour-long commutes and any nasty surprises upon your return to the office. We also advise you to check the property in both daytime and at night to get a general feel of the property and neighbours depending on the time of day.\r\n\r\n<a href=\"http:\/\/suitelife.com\/s\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/commuting-time.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7445\" src=\"http:\/\/suitelife.com\/s\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/commuting-time.jpg\" alt=\"House Hunting in Barcelona\" width=\"852\" height=\"480\" srcset=\"https:\/\/suitelife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/commuting-time.jpg 852w, https:\/\/suitelife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/commuting-time-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/suitelife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/commuting-time-310x175.jpg 310w, https:\/\/suitelife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/commuting-time-135x76.jpg 135w, https:\/\/suitelife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/commuting-time-485x273.jpg 485w, https:\/\/suitelife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/commuting-time-660x372.jpg 660w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 852px) 100vw, 852px\" \/><\/a>\r\n<h6>5. Asking THE RIGHT Questions<\/h6>\r\nViewings are the perfect time to ask questions, however you should know to know how to word them in order to get the most accurate, genuine information from your agent. Remember that your agent is there to sell properties to his\/her client at the end of the day, so asking questions like \u2018Is there a lot of interest?\u2019 and \u2018How are the neighbors?\u2019 is a potential trick question and any salesman is going to be careful about how they answer.\r\n\r\n<a href=\"http:\/\/suitelife.com\/s\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/ask-questions.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7435\" src=\"http:\/\/suitelife.com\/s\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/ask-questions.jpg\" alt=\"House Hunting In Barcelona\" width=\"685\" height=\"385\" srcset=\"https:\/\/suitelife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/ask-questions.jpg 685w, https:\/\/suitelife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/ask-questions-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/suitelife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/ask-questions-310x174.jpg 310w, https:\/\/suitelife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/ask-questions-135x76.jpg 135w, https:\/\/suitelife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/ask-questions-485x273.jpg 485w, https:\/\/suitelife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/ask-questions-660x371.jpg 660w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 685px) 100vw, 685px\" \/><\/a>\r\n\r\n6. Pets\r\nIf you\u2019re looking to acquire a furry friend down the line, there is really no point asking about pets. In Barcelona most rental contracts won\u2019t have pet clauses and in turn, pets will be permitted. Rather than narrowing down your options by declaring your pet, it is better to ask for a copy of the contract, a very standard procedure, and then just double-check if there is a pet clause. In the rare case that there is a pet clause, then of course you would have to ask the landlord if that would be allowed.\r\n\r\n<a href=\"http:\/\/suitelife.com\/s\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/doggggg1.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-7444\" src=\"http:\/\/suitelife.com\/s\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/doggggg1-1024x702.png\" alt=\"House Hunting in Barcelona\" width=\"1024\" height=\"702\" srcset=\"https:\/\/suitelife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/doggggg1-1024x702.png 1024w, https:\/\/suitelife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/doggggg1-300x206.png 300w, https:\/\/suitelife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/doggggg1-310x212.png 310w, https:\/\/suitelife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/doggggg1-135x93.png 135w, https:\/\/suitelife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/doggggg1-485x332.png 485w, https:\/\/suitelife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/doggggg1-660x452.png 660w, https:\/\/suitelife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/doggggg1.png 1182w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a>\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nHopefully we&#8217;ve managed to save you some time, stress or money with our list &#8211; happy house hunting!\r\n\r\nLet us know below if you think we&#8217;ve missed anything!","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"When searching for an apartment in Barcelona, we often overlook the small but important aspects of a new home, distracted by that master bedroom suite or the gorgeous, sun-drenched terrace &#8211; it\u2019s easy to forget the little things.
