Commercial inspections and ASTM-scoped Property Condition Assessments for Savannah and Chatham County, available by arrangement. Understand warehouse, office, hospitality, retail, and older-building conditions before closing, leasing, or planning capital work.
Savannah’s economic-development resources emphasize logistics, distribution, and manufacturing, while the city’s historic districts bring different building and alteration questions. A large distribution property and an older mixed-use building should not receive the same generic scope. High Mark helps define the research, access, observations, and reporting needed for the actual asset.
Review agreed roof sections, accessible structure, loading areas, pavement, drainage, utility systems, and office components. Identify operational restrictions early. Production equipment, rack engineering, and capacity calculations require separate evaluation.
Request alteration records, prior evaluations, and roof or masonry repair history. Accessible conditions can inform follow-up, while historic approvals, materials conservation, structural design, and permission for a new use remain separate matters.
Clarify which floors, suites, rooms, common areas, roofs, and equipment are included. Shared systems and different tenant uses affect access and reporting. Agree on any sampling rather than assuming every occupied space can be entered.
For an older Savannah property, a repair recommendation is only one part of planning the work. For an industrial acquisition, the building’s condition and operational suitability also need distinct answers. Address both before the due diligence deadline.
Savannah identifies historic districts where certain exterior changes may require review. Ask the responsible authority about the specific property and proposed work; a condition report does not grant those approvals.
Request roof, flashing, exterior, and drainage repair history and identify known affected areas. Where coastal or site exposure is relevant, document visible evidence without treating every Savannah property as having the same risk.
Provide lender instructions, the planning period, property documents, and intended use. A PCA can organize material physical deficiencies and cost opinions, while environmental and engineering assignments remain separately scoped.
Answers a defined question about selected building systems. Useful when you need a limited review rather than a property-wide assessment.
Documents observed conditions in the agreed accessible areas and building systems, with photographs, limitations, and recommendations.
Adds immediate repair-cost opinions and a five-year capital reserve outlook to the commercial inspection, helping you plan ownership expenses.
Provides a detailed PCA and Property Condition Report with research and a ten-year planning outlook, as specified in your agreement.
An ASTM E2018-24 Property Condition Assessment combines a walk-through survey with document review, interviews, and research to identify material physical deficiencies. The resulting Property Condition Report communicates findings and opinions of costs for suggested remedies. For your Savannah assignment, the proposal defines the research, access, cost-planning period, and reporting requirements.
Send any lender requirements before selecting a scope so we can confirm whether the requested assessment, report format, and reliance terms can be met. A focused inspection is not a substitute for a full PCA. Phase I environmental assessments are separately scoped and quoted; High Mark coordinates fieldwork with the environmental consultant who prepares the environmental report.

The completed assignment below is an example from our wider portfolio. Its actual location is shown; it illustrates our reporting approach for a relevant property type.
Our Fort White historic-building inspection documented roof wear, moisture and wood-decay indications, and masonry concerns. It demonstrates condition reporting for an older asset, with its actual project location clearly identified.
Read the project details →Your report organizes observed conditions, supporting photographs, access limitations, and recommendations. Use it to prepare repair questions, discuss findings with the seller or property team, and arrange further evaluation. Cost opinions and reserve planning are included when specified in the selected scope; they are planning tools, not contractor bids.
Most commercial inspection reports are delivered within 3–5 business days after inspection. Detailed PCAs, larger properties, research, and cost planning may take longer. Your proposal confirms the anticipated delivery date, so share your due diligence deadline before scheduling.
Yes, within an agreed condition-assessment scope. Tell us the proposed use and provide available plans and alteration records. Zoning, historic approvals, occupancy requirements, and engineered design need separate review by the appropriate parties.
Start with the buildings and areas included, construction history, available records, occupancy, access restrictions, lender instructions, and deadline. The proposal defines observations, research, reporting, and cost planning, plus any separate specialists needed.
We serve commercial assignments in Savannah and Chatham County by arrangement. Send the actual address so we can confirm property access, travel, scope, and the anticipated reporting date before scheduling.
For a useful proposal, include approximate square footage, the number of buildings or suites, current and intended use, occupancy, known concerns, and your deadline. Attach or describe written lender requirements when relevant. Select “Help me choose” on the proposal form if you are unsure which inspection option fits.
