The Caliber difference
Commercial property transactions carry significant financial and structural liabilities. You need an assessor who evaluates building systems with industrial-grade precision. Backed by college degrees in Engineering and Safety, along with over 24 years of engineering, operations, industrial equipment, and high-pressure boiler inspection experience—including systems operating at some of the highest pressures in the world—we view systems with a level of technical precision standard checklists can't match. We evaluate commercial properties using the same quality control we applied to projects for NASA, the U.S. Military, and Fortune 500 corporations. Our protocols are rooted in decades of compliance with ASME, UL, FM Global, NFPA, and global maritime authorities.
Services
Baseline property condition assessments performed in accordance with ASTM E2018-24. We evaluate the readily accessible site, structural frame, building envelope, roofing, plumbing, heating, air conditioning, and electrical systems. You receive an Opinion of Probable Costs broken into immediate repairs, short-term deficiencies and long-term capital reserves to support your acquisition or refinancing.
