Inspections That Protect Your Capital

Propertyexam provides Oregon Metro commercial property inspections for buyers, owners, lenders, and agents who need clear answers before closing, refinancing, or budgeting. Owner and chief inspector Scott Harris is a Certified Master Inspector®, general contractor, graduate engineer, and international facility maintenance expert with more than 35 years of experience and thousands of commercial inspections completed. He also wrote Commercial Property Maintenance, a book built on one principle: responsible capital management and value preservation. That principle drives every report. Your findings cover material physical deficiencies, deferred maintenance, and health and safety concerns, along with immediate and short-term cost projections and a five-year outlook of predictable expenses. When you hire a commercial building inspector, those numbers matter most.

Local Conditions That Age Metro Buildings

Rain, ice, heat, and seismic risk all challenge buildings here. These local patterns guide each survey.

A Long Rainy Season

Nearly 90% of Portland’s yearly rain falls from mid-October to mid-May, straining roofs, gutters, seals, and drains.

Seismic Vulnerability

Portland counts over 1,600 unreinforced masonry buildings. Reports flag visible seismic concerns for engineer review.

East Winds and Ice Storms

Freezing rain and east winds hit Gresham, Troutdale, and Fairview hardest, loading gutters and cracking pavement.

Summer Heat Spikes

Portland hit 116°F in June 2021. Heat like that ages roof membranes, sealants, and rooftop HVAC equipment faster.

Services Built for Commercial Property

Offices, warehouses, hotels, apartments, clinics, and equestrian facilities all get the same thorough, non-intrusive approach.

Commercial Property Condition Assessments

Each ASTM E2018 property condition assessment combines an on-site survey, document review, and interviews with opinions of probable cost.

Pre-Purchase Due Diligence Inspections

Each due diligence inspection documents defects and deferred maintenance in time for buyers to negotiate price, credits, or repairs.

Facility Maintenance & Capital Planning

Owners receive multi-year expense outlooks plus trusted contractor and vendor recommendations to budget repairs and preserve value.

The detailed and attentive property inspection was excellent. I am very glad I had Scott on my side. It was the best money I could have spent: to REALLY know what I was looking at.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I worked with Scott on a couple of projects related to a roof and a garage door installation. Scott was professional, knowledgeable, thoughtful, and easy to schedule with. I really enjoyed working with him, and expect to work more with him in the future.
