What affects the cost of a snagging inspection?
Three factors set the price: property type, built-up area, and property age. Villas cost more than apartments because they have more systems to inspect, including pools, gardens, roofs, and boundary walls. Larger and older properties take more inspection time, which is reflected in the cost.
Is professional snagging worth the cost?
Yes. A snagging inspection costing under AED 2,000 regularly uncovers defects worth far more. In one recent resale case, the snagging report gave the buyer grounds to negotiate AED 75,000 off the asking price. For new builds, every documented defect is fixed at the developer's cost, not yours.
How long does a villa snagging take?
A professional villa snagging takes 3 to 5 hours on site, depending on the size of the property. The full inspection covers 500+ checkpoints, and your detailed report with photographic and video evidence is delivered within 24 hours of the visit.
