Frequently Asked Questions

 

 

 

What is real estate Technical Due Diligence and what is it used for?

Real estate Technical Due Diligence is an analysis process that combines checks on the physical condition of the property with documentary and regulatory reviews. It identifies critical issues, risks and liabilities, supporting informed decisions in acquisition, sale, management or value enhancement transactions. It is an essential tool for assessing costs, timing and the necessary interventions. 

What is the difference between Phase 1 and Phase 2 Due Diligence?

Phase 1 includes document review and visual site inspection without invasive investigations, useful for an initial risk assessment. Phase 2 further investigates the aspects identified through technical, environmental and structural analyses, defining actual risks and corrective actions. The two phases are complementary and scalable according to project requirements. 

Which areas does Environmental Due Diligence cover?

Environmental Due Diligence analyses elements such as soil and subsoil, the presence of asbestos and man-made vitreous fibres, radon gas, underground tanks and waste management. The objective is to identify potential environmental liabilities, estimate intervention costs and define actions for alignment with current regulations. 

In which phases of the asset life cycle is the service applied?

The service is applied during the acquisition, management, value enhancement and disposal phases of the property. It supports strategic decisions by providing technical and regulatory information, contributing to risk management and the planning of interventions throughout the entire asset life cycle. 

What is the role of the Data Room in real estate transactions?

The Data Room enables the collection, organization and digitization of the property’s technical and administrative documentation. It includes information on title, restrictions, urban planning, building systems and environment, ensuring transparency and data accessibility in support of analysis, valuation and negotiation processes. 

How do the services contribute to the regulatory compliance of the property?

Cadastral and building regularization activities, together with certifications and declarations of compliance, make it possible to align the property with current regulations. This process reduces legal and operational risks and ensures the documentary accuracy required for sale, lease or asset management transactions.
