What does Basis op orde check?

Buur is not live yet. This guide describes how it works at launch. Details in the app may still change.

Basis op orde ("basics in order") is a checklist for the board. You see at a glance what is already in place and what still needs attention. It is a useful starting point, especially for small or dormant VvEs.

What is on the checklist?

Your VvE's setup in Buur

• the deed of division has been uploaded;
• the apartments and shares have been confirmed;
• the owners have been invited.

Your VvE's basics

• KvK registration: a VvE should be registered in the trade register.
• Reserve fund: the law requires a VvE to keep a reserve fund (article 5:126(1) of the Dutch Civil Code, BW).
• Two accounts: a current account for running costs and a separate account for the reserve fund. For residential buildings, the reserve fund must in principle be held in a separate account in the VvE's name (article 5:126(3) BW).
• Building insurance: the regulations set out who insures the building and against which risks (article 5:112(1)(d) BW).
• Audit committee (kascommissie): many regulations call for an audit committee that checks the finances.

How does it work?

For each item you record its status. Buur reminds you of items that are still open. Basis op orde tracks status and gives you an overview. It does not arrange things for you: you open an account or take out insurance yourself.

What Basis op orde does not do (yet)

Calculating contributions and tracking payments belong to Buur's money features. They are coming soon. Until then, the checklist may show "not set" for money items.
