Remote House Check

What is Remote House Check?
Remote House Check is a professional remote property inspection service in Spain for expats, students and everyone else who can’t be present in person.
If you are renting an apartment in Madrid and want to avoid surprises, then we will visit the property on your behalf and provide a thorough and honest house check.
During the visit, we carefully inspect the condition of the property, check for potential issues and ask all the questions you might have in Spanish, English or Dutch.
We provide a live video call so you can ask questions in real time. After the inspection, you receive clear feedback, so you can make an informed decision with confidence.
This service is ideal if you are moving to Spain, studying abroad or renting a property from another country. Remote House Check helps you save time and gives you a peace of mind by giving you a reliable, local check of your future home in Madrid.
About the founder
My name is Melissa, and I’m the founder of Remote House Check. I started this service after experiencing firsthand how difficult it can be to find an apartment in Madrid when you’re not physically present.
After moving to the city myself, I realized how difficult it is to truly know the condition of a property from a distance.
Photos often hide problems, communication with landlords or agencies can be unclear, and being abroad means you don’t always have someone you trust on the ground. That’s where Remote House Check was born.
My goal is simple: to help you avoid surprises, make informed decisions, and feel confident about your home in Madrid, even when you can’t be there yourself.
Remote House Check is built on transparency, reliability, and local knowledge, so you always know exactly what you can expect.

“I couldn’t be in Madrid for viewings, so Melissa went for me. She showed everything clearly, gave her honest opinion, and made it feel like a friend was helping me out.”

“I’d seen few apartments on my own, but I wasn’t sure what to trust. Remote House Check helped me figure out which place actually felt right, no pressure, just honest advice.”
