Property Condition Assessments for New Westminster properties

What a condition assessment covers on a typical commercial or apartment property in New Westminster.

New Westminster, once the colonial capital of British Columbia, has one of the region's oldest and densest urban cores, built along the banks of the Fraser River. We cover the full range in New Westminster, British Columbia: commercial, industrial and apartment properties, assessed to ASTM format, for due diligence, financing and refinancing. We attend from our Vancouver office, 20 km or so away — close enough that a site visit is never the bottleneck.

The scope is set by two things: the property itself, and what the report needs to accomplish. Whether it's for a transaction, a filing, budgeting or a dispute, tell us the purpose and we'll confirm scope before providing a quote.

The licensed professional who seals the report also prepares it — and it's written so you can act on the findings directly, without needing to translate them yourself.

The property condition assessment page sets out exactly what the report covers and how the process runs.
