How Is the Price of a Coastal Tower in Mahmoudabad Determined?

Why is there no single figure for every unit?

The price per square metre in a coastal tower is an average spread across different units. Asking only for "the price per metre" ignores a large part of the decision. What you buy is not just enclosed space; the view, the terrace, the light and the unit's place in the building are part of the product.

For this reason Azhianeh does not lock the day's price into the fixed text of the Hess-e Zendegi page. Prices are dated, and availability and terms for each unit are given at the time of enquiry.

Physical factors: what you can see in the unit itself

Floor and orientation, the quality and durability of the view, the area and depth of the terrace, and the floor plan are among the most important factors. Durability of the view means whether another building or trees might block the front of the unit. Terrace depth decides whether the space is truly livable or just a narrow balcony. In the plan, the sequence of entry, the distance of the bedrooms from the living room and the ratio of terrace to interior space all matter.

Parking and storage belong to the same category and should be specified separately and in writing.

Hidden factors: what shows later

Structural quality, mechanical and electrical installations, masonry and finishing work do not show in the final photograph, but years later they show in maintenance cost and quality of life. A building that checked these layers before the walls were closed has a different value from a similar building that did not.

That is why on the Hess-e Zendegi page we have placed real photographs of the piles, raft foundation, electrical work and masonry beside the renders; a price cannot be judged without seeing these layers.

Construction stage, payment and post-handover management

A unit under construction and a delivered unit carry different risk and timing. Payment terms, handover specification and handover date should be written exactly as in the contract. The post-handover management model, meaning who runs the common areas and how its cost is set, is another part of the value.

At Hess-e Zendegi this layer is defined under the name Rokan Life; the exact scope of services and costs will be announced only in line with the contract and the final operations dossier.

How do we compare the price of two units?

Build a simple table, with the units as columns and these factors as rows. For each row, ask the seller for documents, not promises. If a price is offered without explaining these rows, ask the seller to explain why another unit in the same building is priced differently.

Have the contract reviewed by an independent lawyer or legal adviser before signing.
