Commercial Inspections & Property Condition Assessments with local service in Southwest Washington and scheduled visits statewide.
Scott Harris, owner and chief inspector of Propertyexam, personally leads every commercial property inspection in Washington. He is a Certified Master Inspector®, General Contractor, graduate engineer, and Washington State licensed inspector (#864) with more than 35 years of experience and thousands of commercial inspections completed. As the author of Commercial Property Maintenance and an internationally experienced facility maintenance expert, Scott works as more than a commercial property inspector. He looks past the defect list to what each finding means for your budget. Your report includes immediate and short-term cost projections for repairs, deferred maintenance, and safety items, plus a five-year outlook of predictable expenses. That makes it a practical tool for capital management and value preservation, whether you own a single storefront in Vancouver or a multi-building apartment complex in Spokane.
