Inspection of accommodation on the Costa del Sol in Spain

We carry out inspections for the purchase and sale of villas, terraced houses and apartments.

We help you secure your residence in paradise

Anyone buying a home has a duty to investigate. It is important that the inspection is done properly, as the buyer cannot claim compensation from the seller for defects detected after the deal is finished. We are your security for such surveys, as well as for the sale or renovation of your property.

We have in-depth experience in inspecting houses and knowledge of the Spanish housing market and the regulations surrounding it.

We carry out house inspections in Marbella. The image shows a mountain in the background with some houses at its base.

House inspection of villas

When buying or selling a house, you need a reliable partner at your side. We have extensive experience in house inspections, and are used to assessing both condition and development opportunities.

Apartment inspection

We carry out a visual inspection of the apartment, including moisture control in wet areas. A protocol is submitted with written information and photos of exposed parts or deviations.

We offer townhouse inspections in Marbella. The image shows a collection of low white houses under a clear sky.

Inspection of townhouses

Avoid the 'pig in a poke' scenario by finding out the condition of the house at the time of sale, and what maintenance is required in the near future.

Project management

We help you with the whole process, from finding the right tradesman to preparation of all the necessary documents.

We help you make confident decisions

The Spanish housing market is different from the Swedish one in terms of the buying and selling process, and also in terms of the agent’s responsibility. We are here to help both real estate agents and private individuals to create security. This strengthens the deal and provides a better basis for decision-making.

In some cases, such as when renting out properties, Spanish law requires an inspection of the property. We are here to assist with service and knowledge.

Frequently asked questions

How long does an inspection take?

Before we come and carry out the inspection, we prepare the statement (protocol) with property details and information previously submitted. This is to ensure that time on site at the inspection property is not taken up by administrative tasks.
A villa inspection takes between 2.5 to 3.5 hours, a townhouse inspection about 1.5 to 2.5 hours and an apartment inspection takes about one hour on site. After the inspection is done, the report is administered: photos are added and the final details are completed.

As a buyer or seller, what do I need to prepare for an inspection?

We wish that ladders are in place, in case they are needed to access the roof and attic space. The inspection is done visually/ocularly, so if we can’t access the space, we can’t inspect it.

It is a good idea to test the heating and cooling functions of the water heater to make sure they are fully functional at the time of the inspection. The reason is that they often malfunction if they have been switched off. We need to test the function during the inspection and include it in the report.
