What is a Bausachverständiger and why do I need one?

A Bausachverständiger is a certified building expert qualified to conduct legally recognized property inspections and valuations in Germany. You should hire one before purchasing property to identify structural defects, hidden costs, and negotiation leverage, potentially saving thousands of euros on repairs or securing better offers.

When should I get a building survey?

Ideally before making an offer, or during the offer acceptance phase. A quick check (Kurzgutachten, 1-2 hours) works for initial assessment, while a full building survey (Baugutachten) should be completed before you commit to purchase to ensure you understand the property's true condition and costs.
