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.

More stories of first-time buyers who thought it was impossible to buy a home
Because of Sake's great help we were able to buy our dream house in Utrecht! He was always available for questions and thought along with us. Definitely recommended!
Very professional help. Sake supported me in all aspects of the house purchase.
Very pragmatic and does everything possible to make the process go smoothly for you.
We came to Sake on the recommendation of good friends, after hearing their enthusiastic stories about him. And rightly so: within a short time we too were successful in the search for our new house!
Since then we have already recommended Sake to three friends and they too have now found a home.What is so great about Sake is that he always communicates quickly and clearly. He takes care of everything and takes you by the hand during the whole buying process.
In addition, he has a fantastic network in Amsterdam, which opens many doors. In short: if you are looking for a purchase broker who is decisive, has a large network and above all is pleasant to work with, definitely call Sake!
Super nice and well advised by Sake from homeup. As starters very inexperienced in the housing market and everything that comes with it, but Sake helped us well and was always quick to act. No question was too crazy. I would definitely recommend homeup as a buying agent.
We bought our house with Sake's help. It couldn't have been any quicker. We had met him in the morning, had a viewing in the afternoon, made an offer and the next day it was accepted.
Sake made sure the process was effortless. He helped us every step of the way and arranged everything (he put us in touch with a mortgage broker, a building inspection, a notary, etc.).
Absolutely worth the investment. Highly recommended!
Oh, and at the end he gave us a bottle of champagne and a handy checklist of the next steps after the key transfer.
Sake helped us tremendously! Without his expertise and commitment, finding a house that perfectly matched our wishes and budget would have been much more difficult and would have taken much more time. We are very grateful for his help and the fact that we could always come to him with our questions. He actively thought along, gave honest advice and was always ready when needed. Really great!
I had an excellent experience with Sake!
From our first meeting to receiving the house keys, the entire process took less than a month - an incredibly quick and smooth process. Sake was friendly, helpful and professional throughout the 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. That made the process comfortable and stress-free. When I was ready, he took over the negotiations and closing seamlessly, making a fair deal. His expertise and efficiency made all the difference.
Thank you, Sake, for your excellent service! Highly recommended.
From start to finish everything was well taken care of.Thank you gentlemen !!!!
Very pleasant. Had the feeling that Sake really went that extra mile. The sale didn't go smoothly, but because of Sake it was completed with a very satisfied feeling. Quick contact, clear, helpful, just very good. Congratulations!
