Get a commercial building inspection for your multi-family unit, rental home, or condo at any time from a licensed professional. Many professionals who inspect private homes are also licensed to inspect rental properties using commercial standards. Most landlords do inspections on a schedule that suits the maintenance needs of the building and local laws. This usually includes inspections at least once a year and before new tenants move in.
Ask your inspection team about their certifications and any optional inspection services they offer. Typical inspections will cover some mold and air quality assessments as well as the roof, stairs, fire equipment, and emergency exits. Your inspector will also check the plumbing, electrical, HVAC system, landscaping, and additional systems or utilities. Inspectors may check the foundation and crawlspace and use advanced equipment to assess moisture issues, the amount of carbon monoxide, and more.
Expect to have the attic and basement inspected as well as the entire interior and exterior. Your inspector may be able to help you with any complaints, repair records, and assessment estimates. It can be helpful to have an inspector assess your building before you decide to proceed with certain repairs, renovations, or replacements. A licensed inspection report is valuable for your building records and any insurance documentation you might need. An inspection can also help you assess the financial value of your project before you begin.
Some inspectors offer thermal heat imaging, quick report turnarounds, radon testing, advanced air quality surveys, and water testing.
