Buying on paper | Check the tile paragraph in the Mifrat

One of the Mifrat paragraphs refers to the wall tiles in the bathrooms. It says up to what height the company will cover the walls. Usually, it is 205/210 cm.

Ask (and better check what's written in the specification sheet) if the value they tell you includes the external walls or not. In most cases, it includes the external walls. It means that the apartment's surface will be about 10% less than the number they tell you. T
