Condominium Inspections

Chicago area Condominiums, Townhouses, and Lofts are obtainable in several different types of building structures and land settings. The inspection is based on the systems and components within the unit you are purchasing, as well as common areas and components that may directly affect your unit.  Each building structure and setting determines which common areas are accessible for the inspector to view and what components can be inspected. Access to a property's common areas and system allows us to perform a complete inspection of the unit. Our inspectors' professional experience gives us the ability to make critical decisions about the property condition and to determine what common areas or elements in your type of building that should not be over looked. You should always obtain a list of building components and areas that are the responsibility of the association of the condo or town home you are considering purchasing and some areas and components that you may have direct responsibility for as a building unit owner. Whenever possible and as a safeguard, a prudent evaluation of the condition of the roof, exterior walls, decks or balconies, as well any basement storage areas or parking facilities, is part of a quality inspection service that we provide to you. We recommend that you inquire, prior to the inspection of your unit, whether or not these areas can be made accessible for your inspector in order to make an evaluation of the overall condition of the property.
