Commercial Permit Management
What to Check Before Leasing or Buying a Commercial Property
Before a commercial lease, purchase, or buildout, review permit history, open permits, inspections, municipal records, zoning-related issues, and unresolved risk items.
Check the Property Before You Commit
Commercial permit due diligence reviews municipal records before a project team commits to a property, lease, purchase, renovation, or opening plan.
The goal is to identify permit and record issues that could change the project scope, schedule, cost, or next steps before the commitment is made.
Records Worth Checking
The review can include permit history, open permits, expired permits, inspection history, violations, business-opening records, and other available municipal information tied to the property.
The proposed business use and project scope should also be compared with what is already known about the location.
Questions the Review Should Answer
The team should know whether old permits remain unresolved, whether prior inspections are incomplete, whether municipal records show a code issue, and whether the planned project may require additional approvals.
The review should separate confirmed records from items that still need city clarification.
