How can I find out about the history of my home?

There are a number of ways to trace the history of your home through the archives, to find out when it was built, and what alterations have been made, but the best way is to apply to your local land registry for a copy of the documents archived there.

Where can I find authorized plans and building permits for a building?

The authorized building plan and building permit are in the land register if your building is titled and updated. On request, please quote the title number. If not, you can obtain these documents from the municipality responsible for your property, by request to the relevant department, quoting the date or number of the authorization.

Sometimes you don't have the exact date of construction or the authorization, which makes it trickier for the authorities to search, since they are archived by authorization number.

Doesn't the plan you've found reflect reality?

In this case, a building survey is essential to update the elements of the plan and present the actual state of the building.

Future project and execution plans will be based on the site survey, so their accuracy in terms of reality will be the result of meticulous, rigorous and precise work.

A survey assignment may result in the supply of one or more documents in *.dwg or *.pdf format:

1) Facade plans
