Coexistence in neighbor communities can be a challenge. Differences of opinion, maintenance issues, and disputes over the use of common spaces are situations that can generate conflicts and tensions. In this article, we will explore how expert assessment can be a valuable tool for managing and resolving these conflicts objectively and effectively.
Common conflicts in neighbor communities:
- Construction defects and dampness: Problems in the building's structure, such as cracks, leaks, or dampness, can generate disputes over the responsibility for repairs and the distribution of costs.
- Noises and disturbances: Excessive noise from neighbors, construction work, or commercial activities can cause disturbances and conflicts.
- Use of common spaces: Improper use of common spaces, such as terraces, gardens, or pools, can lead to disputes over compliance with community rules.
- Non-payment of fees: Non-payment of community fees can create financial problems and conflicts with compliant neighbors.
- Disputes over construction work: The execution of work in private homes or common elements can generate disputes over legality, scope, or quality of the work.
How can expert assessment help?
- Objective damage assessment: An expert can objectively assess the damage to the building's structure, installations, or common elements, determining the causes and extent of the damage.
- Determination of responsibilities: An expert can determine the responsibilities of each party in generating the damage, facilitating the resolution of disputes over cost distribution.
- Preparation of technical reports: An expert can prepare detailed technical reports that serve as evidence in mediation, arbitration, or judicial processes.
- Technical advice: An expert can advise the community of neighbors on the most appropriate technical solutions to resolve problems and prevent future conflicts.
Benefits of expert assessment in neighbor communities:
- Peaceful conflict resolution: Expert assessment facilitates the peaceful resolution of conflicts, avoiding escalation of tensions and the need to resort to judicial processes.
- Informed decisions: Expert assessment provides objective and precise information that allows the community of neighbors to make informed decisions about the management and maintenance of the building.
- Cost savings: Expert assessment can help avoid unnecessary costs arising from poorly executed repairs or judicial disputes.
- Improvement of coexistence: Expert assessment contributes to improving coexistence in the neighbor community, generating an atmosphere of trust and respect.
