You've found a property. Before you sign, we go through it the way a builder does before pricing a job — and tell you what's wrong, what it will cost to fix, and whether to proceed, renegotiate, or walk away. From €490 + IVA, report within 24 hours. Based in Porto, surveying across Portugal.
A lot of property in Portugal has been renovated to look good in photographs. The problems that cost real money are exactly the ones a cosmetic renovation covers up. We find them.
"A documented defect with a realistic repair cost attached is a powerful lever at the negotiating table."
Every report ends with a condition grade and a straight verdict — strong buy, proceed with caveats, renegotiate, or walk away — backed by costed negotiation points. What a survey costs →
Here's a full sample survey report — anonymised, but exactly the structure, tone and depth you'll get: findings room by room, a costed repair schedule, a condition grade, and a straight verdict. No sign-up.
Download the sample report (PDF)For €2,200 we inspect your top three options, compare renovation costs side by side, and give you a straight recommendation — buy this one, not that one, and here's why. The full picture, before you commit.
Our surveys start at €490 + IVA with the report in your inbox within 24 hours. On a €400,000 purchase that's around 0.15% of the price — and the defects we find regularly cost fifty times that to put right.
Roof structure and covering, signs of water entry and damp, structural cracking and movement, timber floors and beams, electrics, plumbing, drainage, windows and sealing — all assessed by a builder, with realistic repair costs attached.
Yes. We're based in Porto and survey properties across Portugal — Lisbon, Braga, Aveiro, Coimbra, the Silver Coast and the Algarve. Tell us where the property is when you get in touch.
In an apartment, what's beyond your front door matters as much as what's inside it. Before you sign the CPCV, we tell every client to obtain the condominium meeting minutes, the approved works schedule, and the condominium's financial position — that's where the surprises live, and almost nobody checks.
Within 24 hours of the inspection, in plain English, with a condition grade and costed recommendations you can use to renegotiate.
