PROPERTY INSPECTION Managing agents do a
reasonable job of inspecting the building. However, the best inspections
are done by an independent person who is qualified to do so and is
objective as well as impartial.
Owners and board members are
surprised when they receive an eight page or more inspection report,
listing deficiencies, violations and poor- or no-maintenance program in
their building.
The report also includes options for
cure, and if asked, estimates for the repairs and a stated course of
action. Keep in mind, the spirit of the report is not to replace an
engineer's report.
The inspection report is what I
like to call a "state of the building" report.
Finally, it is bold enough to
state who was derelict in their duties, but not for the purpose of
putting the blame on
someone - rather to show where the problem lies.
