FAQ - Handover 

What is a home inspection? 

A home inspection is an opportunity to visit your home with one of our property handover representatives. During the home inspection, any faults that require attention will be recorded on a home inspection form. Bavaria Gulf’s project manager will liaise with the contractor to ensure that all of these faults are remedied (subject to acceptance by Bavaria Gulf and consultants). 

Can I authorize someone to do the home inspection on my behalf? 

You can provide us an authorization letter duly notarized or attested by a legal or consular authority stating the person who will represent you. Please include a copy of your passport so we can verify the signature.      

When will the home inspection be? 

You will receive a call from our Project Management Department to schedule an appointment for your home inspection. The inspection usually takes place approximately 2 to 4 weeks before the property handover date. In exceptional cases, when the property is not ready on time, we will inform you of the new date. 

Can I change my home inspection date? 

ou can change your home inspection date once, as long as it is within the period scheduled for home inspections.
