Pre-Acquisition Due Diligence for Multifamily Investors
Don't buy a legacy of hidden liabilities.
We conduct exhaustive on-site physical and operational audits of communities so you can close with absolute certainty.
The Core Inspection Pillars
🏢 Physical Condition Audit
We walk 100% of the units not just a random sample.
-
What we inspect: Roof lifespans, HVAC age and serial numbers, foundational settling, plumbing systems (including camera scopes if needed), and deferred maintenance liabilities.
📊 Financial & Rent Roll Forensic Audit
We cross-reference the seller's marketing package with reality.
-
What we inspect: 12 to 24 months of historical profit and loss statements, bank deposits, utility bills, and actual property tax liabilities.
🔑 Lease File Audit
Paperwork discrepancies are where major legal and financial leaks hide.
-
What we inspect: Actual physical or digital lease agreements matched against the current rent roll. We look at security deposit matches, lease start/end dates, concessions, and utility bill-back structures.
👥 Occupancy Verification
A building can look full on paper while being empty in reality.
-
What we inspect: Physical "eyes on" verification of occupied units, checking for unauthorized tenants, vacant units dressed up to look occupied, or units being used as unapproved storage.
🦺 On-Site Staff Assessment
The success of an asset relies heavily on who is running it.
-
What we inspect: Anonymous and direct evaluation of the current on-site leasing agents and maintenance crew. We evaluate their efficiency, overall capabilities, and whether they should be retained post-acquisition.
⚖️ Compliance & Local Zoning Review
Local ordinances can shut down a renovation plan overnight.
-
What we inspect: Local building codes, active permit histories, pending life-safety violations, and Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) compliance.
