A multi-unit residential property inspection is performed for a range of clientele, including mortgage lenders, investors, condominium associations, and property managers, and for a variety of different real estate transactions, or as part of a standard maintenance and repair strategy.

Unlike most commercial properties, a multi-dwelling property experiences continual usage as long as the unit is occupied or during the operating hours of a communal space, resulting in wear and tear by occupants and visitors to varying degrees. Some occupants or renters may maintain their unit responsibly; others may not, even if they’re contractually required to. Some tenants may own pets, which adds to the normal amount of wear and tear. And some unoccupied units may suffer from neglect or deferred maintenance, and even vandalism by trespassers. Regardless of the client’s objective for the inspection, having the physical condition of the property assessed by a commercial inspection professional is especially important from both a financial standpoint and a safety perspective.

A multi-dwelling property is also known as a multi-family residential property or multi-unit housing. An inspection for this type of residential property is performed for apartment buildings, condominiums, and townhome developments. Although the interior of each individual unit is similar to a standalone residential property and typically inspected by a home inspector, a multi-dwelling property is designed and built with commercial applications and entail systems and features that require the core competency of a commercial inspector. A commercial inspection may also be mandated by the mortgage lender, oversight association, or authority having jurisdiction based on the property’s zoning and purpose.
