Safety:<br \/>\n<img class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-3784\" src=\"https:\/\/www.propertyfinder.qa\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/shutterstock_496290010-600x400.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.propertyfinder.qa\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/shutterstock_496290010-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.propertyfinder.qa\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/shutterstock_496290010-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.propertyfinder.qa\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/shutterstock_496290010.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/> \u00a0<\/strong><br \/>\nThe most important aspect of any home with children is safety, both inside and outside. When looking inside the home, think of the furniture, if the unit is furnished, the sockets, and the layout. Think, do you need an open kitchen plan, or is a closed one more appropriate for you? Are stairs a safety hazard? Are there any sharp corners or edges? For the outside, think of fencing in the yard, or if the property has a pool, can you safely isolate it? Is the balcony safe for kids? Can you child-proof all these areas? This is the most important aspect to consider before moving in.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2. Size:<br \/>\n<img class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-3786\" src=\"https:\/\/www.propertyfinder.qa\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/shutterstock_1297236541-600x400.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.propertyfinder.qa\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/shutterstock_1297236541-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.propertyfinder.qa\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/shutterstock_1297236541-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.propertyfinder.qa\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/shutterstock_1297236541.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/strong><br \/>\nChildren are active, noisy and require a lot of space. Of course, it all depends on your budget, but if possible, a bigger home is something you should consider. Trust us \u2013 it\u2019s for your sanity!<\/p>\n<p><strong>3. Location:<\/strong><br \/>\nA family home, ideally, needs to be in a central location. Not just near schools, nurseries, playgrounds\/parks and malls, but also near a health center or an emergency facility\/hospital, in case the needs arises.<\/p>\n<p><strong>4. Storage:<br \/>\n<img class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-3785\" src=\"https:\/\/www.propertyfinder.qa\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/shutterstock_674926051-600x400.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.propertyfinder.qa\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/shutterstock_674926051-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.propertyfinder.qa\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/shutterstock_674926051-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.propertyfinder.qa\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/shutterstock_674926051.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/strong><br \/>\nYou might be surprised at how important this point is! Any family home should have ample storage space, especially for old toys, items and clothes. Even if you don\u2019t have built in storage, try and look for a home that allows you the space to install cabinets, drawers, etc.\u2026<\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/www.propertyfinder.qa\/en\/rent\/properties-for-rent.html\">Click here to find properties for rent in Qatar<\/a><\/h3>\n<div class=\"sharedaddy sd-sharing-enabled\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This article was published on June 16th, 2020 There are a number of important factors to consider when moving to &hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":3788,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"translation":{"provider":"WPGlobus","version":"3.0.0","language":"en","enabled_languages":["en","ar"],"languages":{"en":{"title":true,"content":true,"excerpt":false},"ar":{"title":false,"content":false,"excerpt":false}}},"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.propertyfinder.qa\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3782"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.propertyfinder.qa\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.propertyfinder.qa\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.propertyfinder.qa\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.propertyfinder.qa\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3782"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/www.propertyfinder.qa\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3782\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":6632,"href":"https:\/\/www.propertyfinder.qa\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3782\/revisions\/6632"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.propertyfinder.qa\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3788"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.propertyfinder.qa\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3782"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.propertyfinder.qa\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3782"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.propertyfinder.qa\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3782"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
