ᐅ Expert Consultant: In Which Construction Phases Is Their Involvement Crucial?

Hello everyone,

we are about to start construction through a general contractor.

Now we are wondering about hiring an expert inspector. We initially planned to hire one for all construction phases. The seller agrees but advised us to save money by hiring the inspector only for the shell construction. According to them, it wouldn’t be worth it for the interior finishing.

What is your opinion on this, and do you have any experience?

Best regards

Michael

Ah, okay... Then the prices are just different. Our soil survey was also conducted by an engineer from your area and cost half as much as one from around here. Even with travel expenses!

I am honestly unsure about what is supposed to be "incredible" here?

For us, in the BGL area, it would cost about twice as much.

I almost feel a bit bad hitting "like" — thanks for the info. I already found our expert charging us 300 EUR (gross) per visit expensive enough.
