The compulsions of the market are such that it is always advisable that one makes a full-fledged survey of the neighboring areas before finalizing a deal. Several factors have to be taken into account if one has to close the deal on mutually satisfactory terms.A close observation of the turn of events of the past few years makes one to realize that there are certain practices that are almost mechanical by nature.One of the biggest mistakes people tend to commit in their quest to get the best bargain is to go with the crowd.
