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.

More stories from starters who thought it was impossible
Sake helped us close on our dream house, where we didn't get a viewing until the closing date. Although it was a bit outside his area and not the most attractive offer, he convinced the selling agent to recommend us to the seller. I would recommend him to other expats in their search for a home in the Netherlands.
We found our home within two months! HomeUp is an excellent choice in terms of cost-benefit ratio. We were clearly told which package was most advantageous for us. If (or when) we decide to switch, we will definitely choose HomeUp again. Thank you!!!
Buying a house in Amsterdam is quite an experience. It took us eight months, and the support from Sake and his team was essential. We are very satisfied with their service.
The guys from Homeup helped us tremendously! Thanks to Sake's expertise and excellent communication, we felt confident throughout the entire process. We don't know if we would have been able to buy our house without his help. Sake, thank you so much! We highly recommend hiring these guys ;)
We recently bought a house through Home UP, and it went really smoothly. Thanks to Billy's clear explanation and honesty, we immediately knew what to expect and what the costs would be, and as first-time buyers, we were able to learn what it's like to buy a house. Billy was always easily accessible and responded promptly and clearly, which gave us a lot of peace of mind. Thanks to Home UP, we were able to get the start we were so looking forward to, and thanks to their approach, we, as buyers, didn't have to worry about someone outbidding us way beyond our budget.
A fantastic experience. Sake and Billy were incredibly helpful throughout the entire process, from the initial meeting, where Sake explained how buying a house in the Netherlands works, to the signing at the notary's appointment for the keys. They made a huge difference, especially during the bidding process, where we were able to be competitive and ultimately secure our new apartment in Almere! A huge thank you to Sake, Billy, and the entire HomeUp team for their fantastic support! I would recommend them to anyone interested in buying a house or apartment. Keep up the good work, guys!
Sake was incredibly helpful in buying our first home. Excellent communication, friendly, and professional!
Sake was incredibly helpful in our search! He connected with the right partners incredibly quickly, taking a lot of work off our hands. Thanks to his expertise, we didn't have a single worry and are now thoroughly enjoying our new home!
Highly professional assistance. Sake supported me through every aspect of the house purchase. Very pragmatic and does everything possible to ensure a smooth process.
