I was recently involved with the sale of a small single story commercial building. It’s a flat roof building with a parapet wall. The “inspector” disclaimed the roof, and all equipment on it, because it was “inaccessible”. The roof access ladder was locked. I guess he didn’t have a ladder.
The current tenant is a restaurant. He disclaimed the fire suppression equipment. Didn’t reference the inspection tags or anything else. Disclaimed the plumbing and drains.
Needless to say, it was a very short report.
He called out the parking lot as needing a sealcoat and stripping. And a couple small divets in the painted concrete floor.
I hope my other Nachi inspectors are a little more thorough.

Well Frank, when you have unqualified Home inspectors performing Commercial inspections for home inspection prices, you get what you pay for!!!

Btw… Are you back to work??
No, just enjoying retirement. I suspect that the Inspector was unqualified. The report was done with Spectora, and not to any standard I’m familiar with.
Nice!

Sad. If you don’t know UL-300, you’re fired. I have to say that restaurants are my favorite commercial because I get to tell my wife that we’re never eating at that place again.
