What is a building inspection and how does it work?
A building inspection is not hocus pocus. It is a thorough inspection of your home by a specialist. From foundation to roof, everything is looked at. This gives you a clear picture of the condition of your home. Read all about how it works in this article.
How does a building inspection work?
Making an appointment
A building inspection begins with an appointment. Our partner will come by at your convenience.
The inspection
The specialist inspects your home from head to toe. Every nook and cranny is looked at. That way you know exactly what's going on.
The report
After the inspection, you will receive a clear report. In it you will find the defects found, including photos and a cost indication for solving these problems.
Your security
With the report in hand, you know exactly where you stand. No hidden defects, no unexpected costs. Just certainty. That's homeup.
When do I need a building inspection and how much does it cost?
Especially if you are buying an older home, it is wise to have this done. But it can't hurt newer homes either. It can reveal hidden defects, such as leaks, wood rot or construction faults. Although a building inspection is not mandatory, it does provide assurance and can help you negotiate the price.
Engaging an expert for a building inspection is an investment in the security of your home purchase. Our reliable partner offers this service for a fixed price of €450, including VAT.

Homeup biedt uitstekende service tijdens uw huizenjacht. Sake is zeer professioneel en ervaren en geeft het beste advies. Billy is ook uitzonderlijk en staat altijd klaar om te helpen. Ik kan Homeup en hun diensten van harte aanbevelen.
Sake was very helpful from the moment I met him. He charges reasonable rates and helped me find the apartment I wanted the first time. He really knows how to interact with expats and handles everything without too much hassle for people new to the Dutch real estate market. He also connected me with a mortgage advisor who offered us a very reasonable interest rate (the lowest you can get in the current market). I highly recommend Sake to anyone who wants to buy a property, especially in a competitive market like Amsterdam.
It was a fantastic experience having Sake as our real estate agent! He makes what seems complicated seem easy, takes the time to explain everything, and offers excellent advice. We found our house within a few months, and throughout the entire process, he was always available and quick to respond whenever we needed him. We would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a home. Thanks, Sake!

Truly fantastic!
I had an excellent experience with Sake! From our first meeting to receiving the keys, the entire process took less than a month—an incredibly fast and smooth process.

I especially appreciated his approach, giving me the freedom to view the house at my own pace and on my own schedule. This made the process comfortable and stress-free. When I was ready, he seamlessly took over the negotiations and closing, ensuring a fair deal. His expertise and efficiency made all the difference. Thank you, Sake, for your excellent service! Highly recommended.
