What is the Building Specifications of a property?

Before a real estate sale or purchase of a new home, developers must provide the buyer with a document that specifies all the materials used in the construction. This document is known as the Building Specifications. 

What kind of information does the Building Specifications include? 

Buying a new home is an important decision for anyone. It is not only an important financial outlay, but also an investment in a very personal project. 

In order to take this step with all the guarantees of security, buyers need to have a clear and detailed idea of what the property they are going to invest in is like. Videos, plans and models serve as tools to show the characteristics of the property in a very visual way, but when it comes down to it, what really counts is the information contained in the Building Specifications. 

• Construction elements: roofing, insulation, façade, metalwork, foundations and, in general, all exterior elements of the dwelling.
• Materials used: carpentry, fittings, cladding, bathroom and kitchen equipment and other elements inside the dwelling.
• Services and installations: air-conditioning, plumbing, electrical installations, home automation, telecommunications... 

It is not enough to include general information. Each of these elements must be identified in detail, including information such as models, makes, finishes and technical characteristics. 

Why is the Building Specifications of a house important? 

The Building Specifications is a compulsory, free and binding document in which the developer undertakes to use the elements and materials listed in it. Its importance lies in the fact that, depending on this selection of elements, the energy efficiency of a home can vary significantly, as well as its cost. 

Through this document, the buyer has the guarantee that he/she is paying for what has been agreed. Precisely for this reason, the Building Specifications of a home is a document that is included in the contract of sale of newly built properties.
