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
We found Sake on the recommendation of good friends after hearing their enthusiastic stories about him. And rightly so: we too were quickly successful in our search for our new home! Since then, we've recommended Sake to three friends, and they too have now found a home. What's so great about Sake is his quick and clear communication. He takes care of everything and guides you through the entire buying process. He also has a fantastic network in Amsterdam, which opens many doors. In short: if you're looking for a buyer's agent who is decisive, has a large network, and, above all, is a pleasure to work with, definitely call Sake!
I sold my house with Homeup. The process went smoothly, and I received a higher amount than expected.
Homeup managed the sale of our apartment. Mr. Brouwer from Homeup was professional and quick to answer any questions and provide the necessary information. Appointments were kept promptly, so I highly recommend this real estate agent.
Fast and professional. Sake guided us through the bidding process, advised us on strategy, took care of all the paperwork, and made sure everything went smoothly, all with a friendly smile and an affordable price.
Thanks to Sake's personal contact, we were able to quickly connect with the buyers of our apartment. Sake is professional and approachable, and he's always open to discussing everything to clarify everything. Highly recommended!
Great contact with Billy and Sake!
Highly recommended. I used their services to help me buy a house. Their quick response, attention to detail, and availability made all the difference in my offer and the purchase of my home. My agent was Sake, a fantastic agent, super efficient, and always willing to discuss any concerns and offer his opinion.
Sake was simply fantastic. As an expat buying a house in Amsterdam, it was a world we didn't fully understand. Sake helped us through every step of the buying process, making it an easy and relaxing experience. I will definitely use Sake's services again.
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. Sake was friendly, helpful, and professional throughout the entire process, making me feel supported every step of the way. 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.
