What types of inspections are common during a commercial real estate purchase?

Commercial inspections vary depending on the property, but they often include evaluations of the building’s structure, roof, electrical systems, HVAC equipment, plumbing, parking areas, and other major components. Depending on the property’s history and intended use, additional inspections or specialized evaluations may also be appropriate.

The purpose of inspections is to better understand the property’s condition before completing the purchase. Inspection findings can help buyers make informed decisions during the due diligence period.

I’d be happy to explain the types of inspections commonly considered and discuss how they may apply to a particular property.
