1. What properties are subject to inspection? Inspections are performed on apartments, houses, offices, stores, restaurants, warehouses, attics, basements and garages.
2. Does the seller/landlord have to be present during the property inspection?
   It is not required, but it is preferable that the inspection be conducted in the presence of an owner.
3. Does the buyer/tenant of the property have to be present at the inspection they have requested?
   Not required, but desirable. He can ask the inspector questions on the spot about things that interest him.
4. Who pays for the inspection?
   The inspection is paid for by the contracting buyer/seller or landlord/tenant.
5. How long does it take to inspect the property on site?
   The duration depends on the size and condition of the property. The on-site inspection takes between 2 and 5 hours. The inspection report is prepared within 2 to 4 working days.
6. Is it possible for the buyer/tenant and seller/landlord to also hire an inspector for the inspection?
   Yes, it is possible.
7. Is it possible that appraisals done by two different inspectors on the same property differ?
   Yes, it is possible that different surveyors may have different views of the property. It is possible that the scope of the inspections is different and hence the conclusions are also different. The inspection may have been done at a different time and circumstances may have been changed.
8. What do I get after the inspection?
   As a result of the inspection, you will receive a detailed report on the state of the property, including the data from measurements, supported by photographs, analyses and recommendations, which you can use to make an informed decision.

9. Is a pre-purchase or pre-lease inspection mandatory?

   A pre-purchase inspection is not a mandatory part of the buying and selling process but is recommended for buyers/renters to understand their property better. It enables them to make an informed decision about buying/renting a property. It is also recommended for sellers who want to build buyer confidence, justify the asking sales price and sell the property faster. It is recommended for landlords to gain the confidence of tenants and justify the asking rental price.
10. Can a property inspection determine the market price?
    No. That is not the purpose of the inspection. A property inspection is not an appraisal, does not serve to grant credit, and is not intended to determine the market price of the property.
11. What if the inspection report reveals problems? The outcome of the inspection should not worry you. No home is perfect. The inspection will provide information about the real state of the property and earn the trust of the other party. It will also include the benefits and advantages of the property in question.
12. What is the role of the inspector?
    The role of the surveyor is to provide information about the state of the property, not to advise whether to proceed with a transaction.
13. Who receives the inspection report, and is impartiality guaranteed? Full confidentiality — the inspection report is shared exclusively with the client who commissioned it. No conflict of interest — we do not carry out inspections for both the buyer and the seller of the same property, ensuring complete impartiality and protecting your interests.
14. How do you inspect roofs and hard-to-reach façades?
    When necessary and weather conditions permit, we use a high-end camera drone to capture detailed images of the roof, chimneys and elevated building elements that would otherwise remain out of view during a standard inspection.
