Pre-Purchase Advisory

We assess the existing conditions of properties and land before you buy. We analyse solar orientation, privacy, climate and planning viability to help you avoid mistakes and unexpected costs.

Pre-purchase property advisory in Portugal

Overview

Teambox assesses properties and land before purchase, identifying technical and legal factors that are not always obvious during a standard visit. We examine solar orientation, privacy, access, climate, legal framework and planning viability to reduce the likelihood of problems, limitations or unexpected costs.

Drawing on consolidated experience and detailed research, we provide a clear and well-founded assessment, helping you make more informed decisions and understand realistically what can — and cannot — be done on the site.

Phases

  1. Site or property analysis

    Assessment of solar orientation, privacy, topography, access, noise and surroundings, identifying opportunities and potential limitations.

  2. Legal framework

    Review of regulations, municipal masterplan, planning constraints, permitted areas and licensing requirements.

  3. Construction / renovation feasibility

    Study of possible scenarios, technical limitations and likely risks, helping to anticipate cost implications or impact on future use.

  4. Conclusion and recommendation

    Meeting or written report with a clear summary and well-founded recommendation: proceed, do not proceed, or proceed under certain conditions.

Frequently asked questions

What is pre-purchase advisory?

It is a technical and legal assessment of a property or plot before purchase, helping to identify relevant factors, opportunities and potential risks that are not obvious during a standard visit.

Why is solar orientation analysis important?

Because it influences light, thermal comfort, privacy and future value. This analysis helps determine whether the intended use of the space will work as expected.

Do you verify whether building or extending is possible?

We analyse the urban planning and technical framework, enabling an estimate of the likelihood of being able to build, extend or intervene on the site.

Do you assess climate and comfort?

Yes. We consider ventilation, shading, solar exposure and other factors that can influence the comfort and performance of the future construction or renovation.

Do you provide a written report?

A report can be delivered or the information presented in a meeting, depending on the level of detail required and the complexity of the case.

Can Teambox handle the planning permission afterwards?

We can develop the project and support the planning process if the client decides to proceed, always depending on the technical and regulatory requirements of the municipality.
