Yes, a deed of division can be checked quickly and affordably — without a notary or lawyer. ApartmentCheck reads the deed (and house rules) with AI and flags rental restrictions, usage rules and liability for the previous owner's debts. Free result within a minute; a quick scan with the main findings costs €49.
As a buyer you have a duty to investigate: you're deemed to have read and understood the deed of division before you sign. But the deed sets out rental restrictions, usage rules and liability for the previous owner's debts in dense legal language — not exactly accessible. Miss a rental ban or a joint liability clause, and you can't claim afterwards that you didn't know. We read the deed for you and put it in plain language.
Not a list of ticks, but findings with amounts, years and what to do about them. Three examples from the sample report:

◐ MediumMaintenance
Recurring leaks in kitchen floors. Preventive replacement is too expensive, so only local repairs are done.
Ask the seller whether the apartment has had a leak.
○ LowGovernance
75% of votes at the last meeting, decisions almost unanimous. There is a call for new board members.
No action needed for your offer.
Everything the seller sent you, as PDF. No account needed.
Within a minute, your biggest risk highlighted: what it is, what it costs and the sentence in your own documents that says so.
Every finding with an amount, a timeline and advice. Ready for your offer or your notary.
VvE documents are full of hidden risks. We find them before you sign — while it still makes a difference.
Some deeds prohibit renting out the unit or require VvE approval (often set out in Annex 1).
Joint liability can mean unpaid contributions from the previous owner pass on to you with the property.
Flooring requirements, noise rules and a missing or unreadable house rules document: easy to miss, with real consequences.

“I've bought several apartments with a VvE myself. The risks are almost always in the documents. Nobody really reads them.”

That's set out in the deed of division (often in Annex 1) and can vary per VvE: from free rental to a full ban or a permission requirement. This is exactly the kind of clause that catches investors and buy-to-let buyers off guard afterwards — we check it upfront.
Annex 1 (or a similar appendix) often contains the rules around renting and permission. If it's missing, it's unclear what's allowed.
It can mean you end up paying for a debt the previous owner left with the VvE. We flag this risk in the deed and the other documents.
No. It's a fast first check; for legal implications we recommend consulting a notary or lawyer.
