Commercial Property Inspections

A thorough commercial building inspection before buying is essential for any buyer. Whether your business will be occupying the space or whether it will serve as an investment property, it’s important to know exactly what you are buying and to protect your investment.

The knowledge you obtain from a commercial inspection will allow you to ensure any problems are understood or addressed before you sign on the dotted line. Daylight Inspections will help you identify the property’s problems before they become your problems, which could save you thousands—even hundreds of thousands—of dollars.
