Permit History Reports

- Identify any structural issues
- Inspect plumbing, electrical, mechanical, and related systems

Neighborhood Environmental Reports
Location, location, location. It’s arguably the most important criteria to consider before investing in a commercial property. While countless hours and dollars are spent on market research, building and systems inspections, and other due diligence, environmental risks can sometimes be overlooked. At All Pro Home Inspection - Commercial Inspection Division, we offer a report that is designed to identify potential environmental liabilities at and nearby a property. Request a proposal now or call (716) 772-2548 to speak with one of our experienced team members.
Similar in function to a Phase I Environmental report, our non-intrusive service includes the review of the following as they apply to the property:
- Underground leaking oil tanks
- Hazardous waste sites and landfills
- Signs of illegal drug manufacturing
- Industrial or agricultural contamination
- Contamination from toxic spills
- Impact from neighboring properties
- U.S. EPA’s top cleanup priority properties
- National Wetlands Inventory map (1 mile radius)
- Flood zone map (1 mile radius)
- Environmental map (1 mile radius)
KNOWLEDGE IS POWER
It’s impossible to know everything about a property, but it’s wise to discover as much information as you can prior to making decisions. Some of the most costly and dangerous hazards can actually exist outside a building and could contaminate the water, soil, and air on the property. These issues are often found underground and can include toxic substances that were leaked, spilled, or dumped in the past.
By having All Pro Home Inspection - Commercial Inspection Division provide a Neighborhood Environmental Report (somewhat similar in function to a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment report, without the expense), you’ll know much more about the property’s historical and current condition. The report compiles information from over 1,400 databases to screen for potential environmental liabilities at the property and neighboring properties.
In addition to providing detailed and professional environmental impact reports, we offer commercial property inspections, reserve fund studies, problem investigations, specialty evaluations, and permit history reports in Buffalo, NY and the surrounding WNY areas. Request a proposal now or call (716) 772-2548 to speak with one of our experienced team members.
Permit History Reports
Similar in function to a CarFax® report, a permit history report (powered by BuildFax) from All Pro Home Inspection - Commercial Inspection Division provides all documented construction history of a commercial property. Request a proposal now or call (716) 772-2548 to speak with one of our experienced team members.
The following items are included in our commercial property permit history reports:
- Documented construction and repair history
- Value increases due to significant improvements
- Ages of major systems and components (HVAC, etc.)
- Documented history of water or fire damage, etc.
*The Permit History Report attempts to make the construction history of the commercial property easy to understand and use. However, the provider of this report encourages finals user to verify all report data with the local governing municipality. The report provider collects data from building departments throughout the United States and searches for your address, city, state, and zip within that data. Even if permit history is not available for your specific address, the report information is useful to know information for the surrounding areas.
