Technical building inspection

A technical building inspection aims to provide insight into the condition of a home or building. During a building inspection, a wide range of aspects are examined, such as the foundation, crawl space, and sewer system.

Certainty in building inspections?

Building inspections provide a degree of certainty when buying or selling a home or commercial property. A home inspection will naturally examine different aspects than a safety inspection for a commercial property. However, the basic principle is the same. An inspection report provides insight into the property's condition. It's also becoming increasingly common for homeowners to have their property inspected periodically by an expert; just like a car's MOT (periodic vehicle inspection), your home can also be inspected periodically .

The cost of a building inspection is standard for homes with a volume of up to 1000m³. There are no additional factors to consider. This means you'll never encounter any unpleasant surprises. It's a small investment that can ultimately save you many euros and provide greater peace of mind. If you're looking to buy or sell a home, it's wise to have a building inspection performed. Any unforeseen costs that become clear from the building inspection report can be taken into account when determining your selling price or, conversely, when negotiating (or re-negotiating) the sale price. Homekeur works with its own network of inspectors, and we can assist you nationwide.

Selling your home? Building inspections!

Are you looking to sell a home? A building inspection report is a valuable document that can help you gain the potential buyer's trust. By being open and transparent and presenting the facts in writing, you can eliminate any doubts and uncertainties the buyer may have. An inspection report can create a win-win situation. Both parties benefit from a reliable report. In some cases, the seller commissions a building inspection report, but in most cases, buyers will commission one.

Every technical inspection is carried out completely independently. This means you can always count on a reliable and expert opinion. The most common building inspections are performed when purchasing a home. This way, you know exactly whether you're buying a pig in a poke.
