Know What You Are Signing Up For

Without an independent baseline, disputes over repairs, leaks or damage that was already there have no record to settle them. A lease inspection creates that record before move-in, and it protects both sides.

Many commercial leases also make the tenant responsible for maintaining the building systems, sometimes including the roof and HVAC. Knowing their condition on day one is part of knowing what the lease costs you.

Who orders a lease inspection

  • Tenants signing or renewing, in retail, office, restaurant or warehouse space
  • Landlords documenting a space at handover
  • Property managers handling a turnover
  • Investors, brokers and attorneys who need a neutral report

When you share the maintenance sections of the lease, the report notes which systems and components they cover. We report conditions. Your attorney interprets the lease.

Questions We Hear

What is a commercial lease inspection?

A written record of the condition of a commercial space, made by an independent inspector before you sign or move in.

Why do I need one before signing?

Once you move in, it is hard to prove what was already there. A baseline report settles questions about repairs, leaks and existing damage with a dated record.

Should the landlord or the tenant order it?

Either can. Many tenants order one at move-in, and some order a second at move-out to compare.

What does it cover, and what do I receive?

The level you choose sets the scope. You receive a written report with photos.

How much does it cost?

You get a fixed fee in a written proposal before anything is scheduled. It depends on the size and type of the property, the level you choose and the travel involved.

When should it happen?

Ideally during due diligence, before you sign or move in. If your lease sets a deadline to inspect the space, tell us on the call so we can plan around it.
