Professional Engineer Site Inspections: the foundation of a lender-ready reserve study

Under Full Review — now the only review path for applications dated August 3, 2026 and later — lenders expect reserve studies backed by qualified, independent assessment. Every Strategic Inspections Reserve Study starts on-site, with a licensed Professional Engineer.

PE-sealed reportsOn-site assessmentFull Review standard

What our Professional Engineers inspect

A full physical assessment of every major structural, mechanical, and amenity component — the basis for every funding recommendation we make.

  • Structural components and building envelope
  • Building exterior and site conditions
  • Mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems
  • Interior common areas and amenities
  • Deferred maintenance and safety issues
  • Replacement cost and remaining useful life for each component

Why a PE, not just a "reserve specialist"

A Professional Engineer's seal carries legal accountability and satisfies the highest bar lenders, insurers, and state regulators apply to condition assessments.

It also aligns your reserve study with structural integrity requirements in states like Florida and New Jersey, so one inspection can support multiple compliance obligations.

From inspection to underwriting

The PE site inspection is the source data behind every other Strategic Inspections product.
