Working with the primary real estate market requires a completely different level of involvement compared to purchasing a completed property. In the opinion of architect Raúl Llorente, it is the construction phase that shapes up to 70% of a property’s future value, while most risks are embedded long before the building is commissioned. At RentSale RealEstate, construction process management is viewed as a core element of investment security rather than a formal check on deadlines.
The first level of control begins even before construction starts. The developer is thoroughly analyzed – including completed projects, financial stability, contractor reputation and transparency of project documentation. RentSale RealEstate works exclusively with developers whose business model is focused on long-term value rather than rapid capital turnover.
Attention then shifts to project decisions. The architectural concept, structural system, engineering solutions and materials are assessed not at the level of visual renderings, but from the perspective of real-life operation. For RentSale RealEstate, it is essential that declared solutions are technically feasible and genuinely correspond to the stated class of the property.
During the active construction phase, control becomes regular and multi-layered. Compliance of actual works with the approved project is monitored, along with adherence to technologies, quality of execution of key components and engineering systems. RentSale RealEstate treats any deviation as a potential risk to future liquidity and initiates corrective actions with the developer at an early stage.
Particular attention is paid to timelines and the logic of construction stages. Violations of work sequence, attempts to accelerate progress at the expense of quality, or material substitutions without reapproval are regarded as critical warning signals. In RentSale RealEstate practice, such issues are identified early, helping to avoid systemic problems at the handover stage.
Final control prior to commissioning includes verification that the completed property corresponds to the project, engineering calculations and declared specifications. Lighting, ventilation, sound insulation, common areas and infrastructure elements are analyzed as a single integrated system. RentSale RealEstate considers this phase as protection of future owners’ interests rather than a formal completion of construction.
Documentation is equally important. Permits, acceptance certificates, regulatory compliance and the possibility of future modifications or redevelopments are assessed in advance. Errors at this level can significantly limit flexibility of use and reduce investment attractiveness.
As a result, construction process management at RentSale RealEstate is not passive supervision but active work with risks, quality and the future value of real estate. This approach makes it possible to select primary market projects that preserve their declared quality level and meet the expectations of both investors and end users.
