We carry out your building survey!

Let's get straight to the point: a nice and affordable home isn't easy to find. Especially not if you're just looking to buy a house. Once you finally find a house that meets your needs and is affordable, you want some certainty.

Are you unsure about your purchase? You're certainly not alone in this regard; we're happy to help you with a building inspection. This pre-purchase inspection provides certainty about the condition of the house. You can place an order immediately, as we have branches throughout the Netherlands, from Drenthe to Friesland and from Groningen to Limburg. So, in your area too!

What should you pay attention to if you want to buy a house alone?

Many people don't know exactly what to look for when buying a house. A house's appearance alone isn't enough. A house also needs to be structurally sound. Buying a house alone is especially challenging, as you have to make decisions on your own. This isn't just about money, as housing options are often limited for single people.

Buying a house on your own? The houses are often too big or in the wrong location. Many young people are eager to buy a house in the Randstad, for reasons of work or social life. These are good times for sellers in South Holland, North Holland, Utrecht, and Flevoland, as in the Randstad, people often pay more than the asking price. After all, there are plenty of buyers. Be careful not to overpay, and be sure to have the house inspected. Defects in or around the house can lead to significant expenses.

Have a building inspection carried out before purchasing

Buying a house alone is incredibly exciting, of course, but don't get carried away by emotion. Do it right and have a building inspection conducted before you buy. This way, you'll know you're not buying a dilapidated building with all its attendant consequences. A building inspection can uncover all sorts of defects, such as a leaking roof or wood rot. Defects can be very annoying, but the chance of them happening is much smaller if you have a building inspection carried out. We offer assistance. In this case, you're not alone!
