Property Condition Assessments for Oshawa properties

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

Oshawa's economy has long been tied to automotive manufacturing, and the city sits on Lake Ontario at the eastern edge of the Greater Toronto Area. Our Oshawa work covers commercial, industrial and apartment condition assessments, all to ASTM format, typically for a purchase, a financing decision, or a refinance. We attend from our Vaughan head office, 55 km or so away — close enough that a site visit is never the bottleneck.

Scope is never generic — it follows directly from the building and the reason the report exists. The purpose drives the scope, so tell us if it's for a deal, a filing, planning or a disagreement, and we'll confirm coverage before quoting.

Preparation and sealing are done by the same licensed professional, and the report is written for action, not interpretation.

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

Common questions

Property Condition Assessments in Oshawa

When do I need a property condition assessment in Oshawa?

Most often the report is needed when a property is being bought, financed or refinanced. It is a routine requirement on the lender's side of a commercial mortgage application.

What standard do you follow?

We work to ASTM E2018-24, the guide's current edition, in place since it replaced the 2015 version on 1 January 2024.

What does the report include?

The work involves reviewing the property's records, speaking with people who know the building, walking every major system, and pricing out the deficiencies found — typically across a ten-year outlook.

How quickly can you attend?

We're usually on site within a week or two of being engaged, and the report is generally ready two to three weeks after that visit.
