Real Estate Due Diligence

Buying a building or developing a property comes with big questions—and big risks.

Architects can help you answer those questions during the due diligence period, before commitments are made.

​

• We review zoning and land use regulations to confirm what’s allowed on a site.

• We evaluate code compliance, from accessibility to building type classifications, to be sure the property will perform safely and legally.

• We analyze whether the building can accommodate your specific function—whether that’s office, retail, hospitality, or something more unique.

• Beyond compliance, we also help establish realistic budgets for tenant upfits, renovations, and long-term improvement.

This insight can strengthen your lease negotiations or purchase agreements by giving you a clearer picture of total costs before you sign. With an architect on your side during due diligence, you’re not just buying or leasing space—you’re investing with confidence, backed by expert knowledge of how buildings really work.
