Commercial Property Condition Assessments (PCA) are performed to ASTM Standard E 2018-15 and describe the scope of work and the limitations.A PCA is typically required prior to acquiring a real estate property or for financing/refinancing purposes. Often times it is also a requirement of lenders in order to assure the building is in satisfactory condition. It can also be a tool for investors to negotiate the best possible price for the property or dictating repairs before the building transaction is complete.
