Limited Building Evaluations

Building Analytics provides Limited Building Evaluation reports in both a checklist and a narrative style format. Limited reports are generally used as a Lenders report for re-finance or purchase of small to mid sized properties. Buyers of large properties frequently prefer a full General Building Evaluation.

The Limited Building Evaluation is performed by a registered professional. Both the checklist and the narrative versions of the Limited Building Evaluation cover the same topics. The narrative report offers more detail for a more prudent decision making process.

The scope of services in a Limited Building Evaluation includes:

• Site evaluation by a registered professional
• A one to two page executive summary including introductory statement, general property condition, bullet list of major repair items, and an estimated cost of repairs
