What is a Property Condition Assessment?
A Property Condition Assessment, (PCA), involves thorough investigations into real estate or commercial properties. A PCA provides clients with comprehensive information about a building or property they are looking to purchase, lease, or finance. In simple terms, it evaluates a property’s physical condition. These assessments are also commonly referred to as Commercial Building Inspections, Commercial Property Inspections, or Residential Property Inspections for Multifamily. They all have very similar meanings and are easy to compare!
The quality of a property condition assessment can make or break a deal. A solid assessment will help improve current and future decision-making, asset management, and potential resale value. At zumBrunnen we understand the risk involved in purchasing existing properties and help manage it by utilizing project managers with decades of field experience. We make good, smart deals possible!
