A real estate technical consultant helps potential buyers of houses or apartments understand the actual technical condition of a dwellingbefore making a purchase decision.
In practice, technical consulting is used either before, or after an inspection carried out by a real estate inspector, when the buyer needs clarification, technical explanations, or confirmation of identified risks.
For a buyer, real estate technical consulting means professionally interpreting the problems of a home: what is minor, what is serious, what can be remedied, and what involves risks or high costs in the medium and long term.
Unlike a technical inspection of real estate, which identifies and documents problems, technical consulting explains their impact on the purchase decision.
For a potential buyer of a house or apartment, a technical real estate consultant:
- analyzes the general technical condition of the property
- interprets the results of a technical real estate inspection
- explains the real risks, beyond the aesthetic aspect, and helps to understand the likely repair costs
- provides technical support for price negotiation
In many cases, technical consulting is the step that transforms a technical report into a clear decision to buy or pass.
Technical real estate consulting is especially recommended:
- before buying a house or apartment
- after a technical real estate inspection, when additional questions arise
- when purchasing new homes, where finishes may hide problems
- when buying houses in Ilfov or peri-urban areas
Depending on the situation, technical advice for buyers may include:
- interpretation of the technical inspection report
- assessment of hidden technical risks
- clear explanations that the buyer can understand
- recommendations on the next steps
- technical support in discussions with the seller

Non-invasive technical inspection of civil constructions for the purchase of an apartment or house includes technical checks with specific technical equipment, in accordance with technical standards in construction for:
- structural strength with D-200+ wall scanner and sclerometer - (compressive strength of concrete). Identification of reinforcements by probing pillars, diaphragms, beams;
- water infiltration (FLIR MR176) - detection of moisture sources in the structure, pipes, rainwater collection system;
- hydro-thermal insulation for foundations, facades, roofs;
- identification of thermal bridges (thermal scanning);
- verification of construction elements, finishes, and other risks that may affect the building in the medium and long term;
- recommendations for resolving identified non-conformities and reporting risks;
- rough estimate of the costs of remedying identified defects;
- photographic survey of non-conformities;
- verification of compliance with technical documentation (construction project);
General verification of electrical, thermal, sanitary, and air conditioning installations.
In the case of apartments, additional structural elements of the building are verified depending on their location in the building (i.e., roof, basement, underground parking, etc.).
Any defects found will be delivered in the form of a technical report with recommendations/remedies prepared by a civil engineer, site manager, certified by the State Construction Inspectorate. The purpose of the report is to properly inform the client about the condition of the building.

For a buyer, real estate technical consulting is not an additional cost, but a risk reduction tool. It helps to truly understand the condition of a home and make an informed decision before signing a purchase agreement.
O technical inspection of real estate of the dwelling is a limited examination, non-invasive the condition of a house, often in connection with the sale of that house. Home inspections are usually performed by a home inspector who has the training and certifications to perform such inspections. The inspector prepares and submits a written report of findings to the client. Generally, home inspectors recommend that potential buyers join them during their on-site visits to provide context for the comments in their written reports. The client then uses the knowledge gained to make informed decisions about the pending real estate purchase. The technical inspector describes the condition of the home at the time of inspection, but does not guarantee the future condition, efficiency, or life expectancy of systems or components.
Sometimes confused with a real estate appraiser, a technical consultant, or home inspector determines the condition of a structure, while an appraiser only determines the value of a property for the bank. In Romania, although there is no legislation regulating technical building inspections, there are professional associations for building technical inspection engineers, offering education, training, and professional development opportunities for certification by the State Construction Inspectorate as site managerA professional technical inspection of the property is an examination of the current condition of a house, more specifically, it establishes its current physical state. Technical inspections prior to the purchase of the property identify the building's problems, identify solutions to the problems found and their predicted results, all of which are drafted and assumed in a technical report by a certified inspector. A technical inspection of the property is a technical report based on the verification with specific equipment of the structures, the implementation of the technical execution project, and the installations of a property. The technical real estate inspection provides a buyer, tenant, or other consumer of information with valuable data about the condition of the property before purchase. Buying and searching for a home can be a difficult task, especially when you can't seem to find one you like. The best way to do things is to make sure there is a technical inspection of the property before buying a property.
Technical expertise in construction presents a comprehensive analysis, using invasive methods, of the technical condition of a building, the degree of seismic safety of the building, proposals for execution, and conclusions regarding compliance with mechanical resistance and stability requirements for:
- An existing building or one proposed for construction;
- Changes made or proposed to an existing building.
- Classification or reclassification into a seismic risk class
Technical expertise in construction is prepared and certified by an MLPAT expert (MLPAT is an abbreviation for the Ministry of Public Works and Territorial Planning). The expert certifies whether or not the building's load-bearing structure has been affected by modifications that have been made or are to be made. An MLPAT technical report is required when you want to make or have made changes to your home, in order to certify whether the integrity of the building's load-bearing structure has been affected by the interventions and is requested by the City Hall or the Bank.
The service involves checking the distribution of stirrups in the columns, beams and diaphragms and correlation with the technical design, the E.E.D.-the (execution details). It is possible to highlight the areas with concrete vibration defects in the construction elements. The on-site correlation with the technical documentation has a decisive role in the decision to buy or not to buy the real estate. In the framework of this service, it is possible, optionally, to check the mark of the concrete in place by means of a sclerometer. This service is realized in collaboration with the testing laboratories with which we collaborate.
We perform thermoscanning in the field of:
- construction (highlighting building envelope defects, identification of thermal points, etc.);
- electrical installations (highlighting imperfect contacts and possible defects in electrical panels and on the internal distribution network);
- heating installations (detecting the efficiency of heating units, detecting clogged areas in heating installations, detecting leaks in pipes through walls and floors, etc.);
- water supply (detecting broken or clogged pipes, including in inaccessible areas); - thermography of machinery and equipment in order to determine malfunctions.
Moisture can have several sources:
- Due to infiltration through the roof, terrace, facade, etc.;
- Due to capillary action - usually indicating foundation waterproofing defects;
- Due to damage to water distribution, heating, sewage drainage systems;
- Due to excessive condensation on the wall surface (thermal bridges, inadequate ventilation, undersized heating system).
- Moisture detection is done by a combined method: by direct determination with a contact moisture meter and with a thermal imaging camera.
Checking the installations (electrical, heating, plumbing, water supply, air conditioning) is a key element when buying a property, because poor workmanship, use of poor quality materials, failure to comply with the installation project, etc. can lead in a short time to the need for repairs and repairs. Each category of installations has specific methods of investigation, usually in the case of non-destructive examinations the results of two or more methods are combined
