Technical Due Diligence

Technical Due Diligence in Sweden

When investing in property, especially in a foreign market like Sweden, conducting a Technical Due Diligence (TDD) is not optional – it’s essential. At Sustend, we provide independent, in-depth Technical Due Diligence services that help you uncover hidden risks, understand true asset value, and make confident, data-driven decisions.

Our goal is to protect your investment, simplify your transaction, and ensure that your property meets both your business expectations and local legal requirements.

What is Technical Due Diligence?

Technical Due Diligence is a structured, comprehensive review of a building’s technical condition and compliance. The process includes on-site inspections, document analysis, and expert assessments – all aligned with Swedish construction regulations and international best practices.

Whether you’re buying, selling, refinancing, or investing – a Technical Due Diligence from Sustend gives you the technical insight you need to move forward with confidence.

What’s included in a Technical Due Diligence?

🏗️ Building Condition Analysis

We inspect the building envelope, structure, and key components such as:

• Foundations and load-bearing systems
• Roofs, facades, windows and doors
• Visible signs of damage, wear, or construction errors

We provide a detailed condition report, photo documentation, and clear cost estimates for any recommended repairs or improvements.

⚙️ Technical Installations

We assess the condition and functionality of the property’s shared installations including:

• HVAC (heating, ventilation, and air conditioning)
• Electrical systems and lighting
• Plumbing and drainage
• Fire safety systems

All inspections are performed in collaboration with our certified partners in accordance with Swedish standards.

🌱 Environmental & Energy Performance

Our team evaluates the property’s energy efficiency and environmental risks. We include:

• Energy use and thermal efficiency
• Potential for sustainability improvements
• Compliance with environmental standards

We often integrate these insights with your future maintenance strategies.

📄 Documentation & Regulatory Compliance

We review all relevant technical documentation including:

• Building permits and drawings
• Inspection protocols and certificates
• Maintenance records and plans
• Compliance with Swedish building code (BBR)

This ensures that the property is legally compliant and ready for ownership transfer.
