THE RISKS OF INVESTING WITHOUT A PROFESSIONAL AUDIT:
❌ Hidden structural defects that turn your investment into a money pit.
❌ Unforeseen renovation costs exceeding your original business plan.
❌ Non-compliant technical solutions leading to legal and safety issues.
❌ Overpaying due to lack of an independent technical valuation.
❌ No one on-site to protect your interests and hold contractors accountable.
Ignoring these risks can cost you thousands of euros and years of headaches.

About Me
As a chartered civil engineer with extensive domestic and international experience, I have spent my career delivering complex, large-scale construction projects across Europe. My professional portfolio includes high-rise developments in London, industrial and data center projects in Amsterdam and Vienna, as well as major infrastructure, airport, and logistics investments in Hungary.
Working as a Project Manager and Site Manager, I have gained hands-on expertise across the entire building lifecycle: from the initial design phase, cost control, and scheduling, to site coordination and professional **building survey** practices. In my work, precision, proactive risk management, and the rigorous protection of my clients' interests are non-negotiable.
Thanks to this international background, I operate under the highest professional standards. I apply proven methodologies to ensure that every **real estate due diligence in Hungary** is transparent, efficient, and predictable—whether evaluating a single apartment or a complex property portfolio.
My journey into property consulting began in 2020 with a complete apartment renovation within my family. The task seemed straightforward at first, but it quickly highlighted a massive market gap: local technical supervisors either refused the project due to its smaller scale or charged disproportionately high fees.
Deciding to rely on my own engineering expertise, I managed the project entirely. Since I was working abroad at the time, I coordinated the processes mostly online, combined with personal site visits during critical phases. This experience taught me exactly what a remote investor needs: absolute transparency, reliable boots on the ground, and clear digital reporting.
Building on that successful model, my mission today is to protect foreign buyers from costly mistakes. By providing professional **property inspection in Budapest**, I bridge the distance gap, delivering independent technical clarity from the pre-purchase phase to renovation management and final handover.
As a certified Civil Engineer and a registered member of the Hungarian Chamber of Engineers, I ensure all assessments strictly comply with the latest local MÉptv (Act on Architecture) and TÉKA regulations.
