We're continually expanding our commercial service offerings—reach out and ask!
We inspect retail, office, light industrial, multi-family (5+ units), mixed-use, and small to mid-size commercial buildings throughout Northeast Ohio. If you're buying, leasing, or conducting due diligence on a commercial property, we can scope the engagement to match your needs.
Commercial inspections follow ASTM E2018 standards for Property Condition Assessments rather than residential guidelines. The scope is tailored to the property type and the client's intended use — the report is a risk management tool, not a punch list for a home buyer.
Yes. We inspect duplexes through larger apartment buildings. For multi-family acquisitions, we assess common systems, individual units (sampled or full), exterior envelope, and deferred maintenance — the things that determine whether your proforma holds up after closing.
Pricing is based on building size, type, age, and scope. Commercial engagements are quoted individually — call us with the property details and we'll turn around a number quickly. We don't post commercial pricing online because the variables matter too much to give a flat rate.
Serving Cleveland, Akron, Canton, Medina, Strongsville, and communities throughout Northeast Ohio, our experienced inspectors deliver clarity, honesty, and timely reports so you can confidently move forward with your real estate decisions.
