3 Red Flags Commercial Property Inspectors Looks For

A commercial building inspection from Inspect360 is a critical process that helps business owners make informed decisions about their investments. After all, your commercial property reflects your business practices, and any red flags need to be addressed. So, let’s look at three common red flags our commercial property inspectors look for during inspections.

1. Low Ceiling Height

One of the biggest red flags for commercial property is a low ceiling height. This can be a problem for a number of reasons. First, it can be difficult to store inventory or equipment in areas with low ceilings. Second, it can be difficult to move around in these areas, which can impact productivity. Finally, it may be difficult to install new equipment or renovate existing areas if the ceilings are too low. If you're considering a commercial property, be sure to ask about the ceiling height and see if there is potential for upgrades or expansion in the future.

2. Foundation Damage

Another serious red flag our commercial property inspectors look for is foundation damage. If the foundation is unstable, it can lead to a variety of other problems with the property, including water damage, mold growth, and even structural failure. Signs of any of these indicate serious problems with the building, and you'll likely spend more money on renovations and repairs than your business can afford. So if you're considering buying a commercial property, be sure to have it inspected by a professional to look for any signs of foundation damage.

3. Possible Environmental Issues

Finally, another red flag our commercial property inspectors often look for is environmental issues. This could include anything from asbestos and lead paint to underground oil tanks or chemical spills. Removing these from a building can get expensive. So, knowing about these before you buy or lease can save you a lot of time and effort.
