Expert Witness for Homeowners' Associations in Barcelona | Technical Reports

The Technical Ally for Your Homeowners' Association

Homeowners' Associations (HOAs) face unique technical challenges. Problems affect a collective, not just an individual, and decisions must be made at Board meetings, often with differing opinions. A technical expert report acts as an impartial arbiter, replacing opinions with facts and providing a solid, unified basis for action.

Our service is designed to address the most common situations an HOA encounters, providing the necessary technical evidence to resolve conflicts and plan solutions.

When Does Your HOA Need an Expert Report?

A technical report is essential in multiple scenarios:

• Post-Construction Claims: If the building is new and defects appear in common elements (facades, roofs, common areas) within the warranty periods of the Building Planning Act (LOE), our report will be the fundamental evidence to claim against the developer or construction company.
• Insurance Disputes: When the insurance company denies a claim or offers insufficient compensation for damages to common elements, our expert report challenges their assessment and substantiates the community's claim.
• Diagnosis of Common Pathologies: In the event of cracks, dampness, or spalling on the facade, roof, or garage, the report identifies the root cause, assesses the risk, and defines the correct repair solution, allowing the Board to approve a data-driven action plan.
• Disputes Between Neighbors or with Third Parties: To objectively determine if damage to private property is caused by a common element (e.g., a main downpipe) or vice versa.
• After an Unfavorable Building Inspection (ITE): If the Technical Building Inspection is unfavorable due to serious deficiencies, our report can detail the scope of the necessary work and serve as the basis for the rehabilitation project.

A Clear Report for Clear Decisions

We understand that an expert report for an HOA must be, in addition to being technically impeccable, clear and easy to understand for non-experts. Therefore, our reports are written in accessible language, supported by an extensive photographic report, and conclude with a summary of clear, prioritized recommendations.

The goal is for the HOA Board and its manager to have a useful tool that facilitates decision-making, unifies criteria, and effectively protects the interests and safety of the entire community.
