Large corporations, real estate investment trusts, and individual investors have different perspectives, different portfolios, and different investment goals. Some purchase commercial buildings regularly, others only occasionally. Criterium-Yancy Engineers understands these differences. We can meet investors wherever they are and provide the entire range of advice and assistance they need, from the sophisticated analysis experienced investors may require to the additional handholding less experienced investors may appreciate.
All commercial property buyers need to perform due diligence before they make a purchase commitment, and Criterium-Yancy Engineers guides them through that process. Our licensed Professional Engineers perform a thorough visual inspection of the commercial building that encompasses its overall condition, focusing on all the critical building components (structural, roof, electrical, plumbing, air and heating, paving, drainage, etc.), environmental factors (including air flow and insulation) and safety issues – fire and other potential hazards.
