Building/Due

The condo question every buyer now asks

Since Surfside, buyers and lenders ask three things about a condo building before closing: has it passed its milestone inspection, done its reserve study, and is anything open with the building department? Our condo report answers from the public record, in plain language, on one page you can send a client.

Condo reports, 10-pack $199 — $20 a report

Ten reports to run whenever a listing or closing needs one, each with its own link to send on; the pack's page keeps them together. A single report is $29.

Compiled from county, city and state public records. A report is a starting point for due diligence, not an inspection or a legal opinion; the association's own reports and the building official are the authority.
