The purpose of a commercial property inspection is to identify, observe, and communicate physical and functional deficiency of the structural systems & components and mechanical equipment within a commercial property.
Not even newly constructed buildings are built perfect-guaranteed. Buildings recently remodeled or ready for renovation (such as office space converted to residential units or warehouses converted to retail shopping centers or vice versa) also need an inspection for safety, construction flaws, and violations. Older properties require maintenance and repairs over time (and most of the time have deferred repairs/maintenance & safety issues). And a good inspection can inform you about areas of concern, improve your negotiating position, and provide you with an assessment of the property’s current condition for future reference or monitoring negotiations if purchasing.
