Multi-Unit Inspections
- Certified Home Inspectors
- Detailed Reports
- Experienced Inspectors
- Modern Inspection Tools
Multi-unit inspections on multi-family properties can be customized to your needs. We can do a full multi-unit inspection of the entire building including reports on each unit, or, we can do a slimmed down inspection that focuses on the major systems only and one unit as an example of the additional units.
Whether you want the full inspection or partial, our Home Inspectors can help you protect your investment by providing you with an accurate assessment of your Multi-Unit purchase before you buy. Our inspection reports can provide you with a full view of the current state of the building from the individual units to the roof, exterior, and other major systems.
We provide full property inspections for Multi-Unit dwelling‘s whether they be mixed-use i.e. residential and commercial, or full residential. Depending on the size of the property, we are able to provide multiple inspectors to come out and cover the square footage in a reasonable amount of time, and with minimal impact on current tenants, but you should expect the inspection to take 3-4 hours at a minimum depending on the size of the property.
Our multi-unit inspections are designed to examine all the major systems of the property in addition to evaluating each unit individually. However, we can also limit the number of units if it is desired by the client.
