Understand the property you’re acquiring.
Property condition reviews in Atlanta for equity buyers and ownership teams. Document repair needs, deferred maintenance and open questions before or after acquisition.
Property condition reviews
A newly acquired property can come with unanswered questions about deferred maintenance, repair costs and potential safety concerns. Transom brings construction experience to a focused review of visible conditions, helping you establish a record and decide where to investigate next.
Define the question
Start with the acquisition, known concerns and available records. Agree which areas and questions the visit should address, including conditions that may affect repair priorities or property operations.
Record visible conditions
Document accessible areas with photographs and construction-informed observations. Note visible maintenance, repair and potential safety concerns within the agreed scope.
Plan the follow-through
Organize the concerns and open questions into priorities for your team. Identify what needs records or further access, and which concerns need investigation by a qualified specialist or attention from a contractor.
Questions about the review
Can you review a property we recently acquired?
Yes. A focused visit can establish an initial record of visible conditions and flag concerns for follow-up after acquisition. Share what you know about the property, available reports and any immediate concerns so we can agree a useful scope.
Can you review an occupied property after a change in ownership?
Yes, subject to agreed access and scope. We work with your team to identify accessible areas and review available reports and maintenance records. The visit establishes a record of visible conditions and questions for follow-up without assuming access to every occupied space.
Is this a formal Property Condition Assessment?
A focused Transom site visit is an observational service. If you need a lender-specified report, ASTM assessment or specialist certification, share the requirements first so the appropriate scope and provider can be identified.
Can the review help a receivership team?
We can discuss the need for an initial local record of visible conditions and questions requiring follow-up. Access, urgency and the required level of investigation are agreed before engagement.
Can you document the property over time?
Repeat visits and 360-degree documentation can be discussed where they support the engagement. Coverage, viewing arrangements and retention are defined in the scope.
Will you manage repairs?
Transom advises the client through observations and review. The responsible owner, receiver, manager or contractor arranges corrective work.
