Condominiums with EEEs and are turning 6 years old will need to do inspections.

That’s right, when your condominium turns 6 years old from the date of issuance of the certificate of occupancy, the board of directors will need to commission a SB326 inspection. We’ve found that many management companies aren’t paying attention to this requirement or don’t know about it.

HOA managers will need to figure out their HOA/Condo clients buildings age and get them bids for balcony inspections as they turn six years old. Reserve study companies will need to incorporate into the reserve study the anticipated costs for their SB326 inspection ASAP so that the association can set aside cash for their inspection costs.

If your HOA is turning 6 years old from the date of issuance of the certificate of occupancy, reach out for a bid on doing your first SB-326 inspection. We’ll lead you through the inspection process and get you in compliance fast with our proven inspection methods.

Given that the association is fairly new and hopefully you have been doing your maintenance, the only inspection that should be necessary on newer newer buildings is a stage 1 visual inspection.

We check off all the boxes for our clients! No conflicts of interest, a structural engineer inspects the EEEs, and fast report turn around!
