VERA RATING REAL ESTATE PERFORMANCE

Thereal-worldbuildingperformancerating

A trust infrastructure that measures, interprets, documents and enhances a building's actual quality over time.

EPC = forecastVERA = proof
01

Market problem

The market claims quality, but rarely proves it over time.

A documentary gap still exists between designed quality, claimed quality and quality actually delivered.

01

Designed quality

The design defines expected performance, materials and technical solutions.

02

Claimed quality

Marketing communications describe efficiency, comfort, healthy spaces and sustainability.

03

Delivered quality

What the building actually delivers over time, while in use.

04

The blind spot

Without structured, verifiable and transferable data, quality remains difficult to prove.

Building quality is simple. Proving it is the real challenge.

From promise to proof

Living quality is real: it can be measured, documented and turned into value.

02

Real living well-being

A home's value starts with how it makes you feel every day, even before how it is built.

VERA measures real living well-being: air, comfort, stability, consumption and environmental quality over time.

Air, comfort, stability. How the building is actually experienced, measured over time.

Solution

Declared performance becomes verified.

VERA complements traditional tools with documented insight into a property's actual performance.

01

Measures

Collects real data through a defined sensor plan.

02

Assesses

Interprets data according to a methodological protocol.

03

Documents

Provides structured, verifiable and usable evidence.

04

Makes transferable

Builds a dossier that remains with the property over time.

VERA goes beyond the promise: it adds a layer of proof.

04

What it assesses

Five performance areas, one verified assessment.

Five dimensions of the building, assessed together to document its actual quality.

01

Thermal and hygrometric comfort

Temperature, relative humidity, comfort stability, surfaces and building envelope response.

02

Air quality

CO₂, particulate matter, VOCs, formaldehyde and relevant indoor air-quality parameters.

03

Actual energy use

Actual electricity use, photovoltaic production, self-consumption, energy imported and exported.

04

Building systems performance

Thermal energy actually supplied, operating continuity, efficiency and systems behaviour.

05

Electromagnetic assessment

On-site survey at completion of low-frequency and radiofrequency fields within the unit.

05

How the protocol works

From construction to the building's real life.

A structured process that turns performance into documentation.

  1. 01

    01

    Initial setup

    Analysis of the development, design, assemblies, systems and assessment goals.

  2. 02

    02

    Sensor plan

    Parameters, measurement points, sampling frequency and collection conditions.

  3. 03

    03

    Construction and handover

    Technical information, review of initial conditions and monitoring activation.

  4. 04

    04

    In-use monitoring

    Collection of real data while the building is in use, season after season.

  5. 05

    05

    Analysis and interpretation

    Data cleaning and review against defined criteria, excluding non-representative events.

  6. 06

    06

    Dossier and attestation

    Evidence, indicators, executive summary and traceable data in a real-performance dossier.

The protocol should start early. Some decisive information is created during design and construction; if it is not collected then, it does not retain the same documentary strength.

06

Trust governance

Blockchain protects the data. Method makes the proof credible.

Credibility comes from the whole system: method, third-party validation and traceability.

01

Sensors and measurement plan

What to measure, where, how often and under which conditions.

02

Data collection protocol

Operating rules for coherent, comparable data that remains usable over time.

03

Methodological interpretation

Data read against defined criteria, excluding non-representative time windows.

04

Rating and attestation

Transformation into indicators, concise evidence and stakeholder-readable documentation.

05

Scientific and technical validation

A method developed with scientific support and subject to progressive external validation.

06

Registry and blockchain

Timestamps, hashes and a distributed ledger ensure temporal integrity and traceability.

07

Property value

Real data, genuine well-being, lasting value.

VERA reduces information asymmetry and turns invisible quality into documented evidence.

01

Living value

Measures well-being, comfort, air and actual environmental quality over time.

02

Property value

Differentiates the development, builds trust and documents actual quality.

03

Data value

From year three, it can become an ESG indicator and generate annual payment.

A lever for those who build, invest and live there.

Developers, real estate companies and investors

  • Differentiates the development
  • Greater market credibility
  • Supports a price premium
  • Transferable asset-linked dossier
  • Supports due diligence and ESG

Buyers and residents

  • Measured, real well-being
  • Air, comfort and consumption monitored
  • Transferable documentation
  • A more informed home
  • Greater resale potential
08

Data value enhancement

From year three, data can also create value for residents.

Voluntary consent-based programme

€ 500per year, per monitored unit, starting from year three

Through the voluntary programme, clients can authorise the use of aggregated actual-performance indicators for ESG, energy and financial purposes.

01

Level B

The unit is monitored from year three under the protocol.

02

GDPR

Clients freely authorise and may withdraw use of the indicators.

03

ESG

Data becomes aggregated, anonymised summary indicators.

04

Value

€500/year per unit, for every year with active consent.

Participation is voluntary and consent can be withdrawn at any time. Value enhancement concerns processed, aggregated indicators, not transfer of raw data.

09

Protocol activation

Activate VERA before quality becomes invisible.

The protocol can be activated during design, construction or the property's initial operating period.

01

Real-performance dossier

Evidence, data, indicators and performance insights.

02

Attestation

A verified summary of actual performance, measured under the protocol.

03

Executive summary

A concise version for business audiences, investors, buyers and stakeholders.

04

Commercial evidence

Documented arguments for sales, leasing and ESG communications.

05

Traceable data

A registry of data and documents, with temporal integrity secured through blockchain.
