INTERNATIONAL PROPERTY CONDITION ASSESSMENT (PCA)

INSPECTION • REPORT • CONSULTATION

North America - Caribbean - South America - Asia - Pacific

Westinspect provides International Property Condition Assessments (PCAs) in English-speaking and Spanish-speaking areas of the world. We specialize in small to medium Commercial Properties and larger Residential Properties. Westinspect provides site research visits combined with accurate online Property Condition Reports.

Your Report includes water intrusion concerns, safety issues, structural integrity and overall building systems including roof, foundation, plumbing, electrical, heating, and more. Based in Colorado, USA, we serve private businesses and investors in North America, Caribbean, South America, Asia and Pacific regions.

Property Condition Assessments are based on the international standard: ASTM Standard E2018.

When you contact Westinspect, we create a written Proposal with the scope of inspection services that you request. International PCAs are scheduled promptly after your acceptance of our Proposal. Turnaround time, from initial scheduling to final written Property Condition Report, is one to four weeks, depending on accessibility of the property.

The Team Approach: Based on the size and complexity of your project, one or more professional specialists may assist with the PCA. For example, specialist electrician, plumber, structural engineer, or others may be consulted during the PCA process. The cost of any specialists are included in the written Proposal. If significant unforeseen conditions are discovered during the on-site inspection, we may ask if you want to have additional specialist consultations.

Prices are determined by location and property size. Our prices are comparable to, or better than, hiring a local engineer. And unlike most engineers, we have the expertise that is needed to create a comprehensive Property Condition Report. Your written Proposal includes the exact cost for your International Property Condition Assessment.

A deposit is due when your PCA is scheduled. At that time, you may use the PayPal online payment button at the bottom of this page.

The remaining balance of your fee is due in two payments: Half on the date of the on-site inspection, and the other half on the date of your final written report. These final two payments are payable through PayPal, or bank-guaranteed check, or in cash, using US$ or local currency.

The 20% Benefit: For all International PCAs of private and commercial properties, 20% of the fee is donated to a children's charity in that country. For example, all private inspection-consultations in the Philippines result in a 20% donation to New Faith Family Childrens Home in Mindanao. On the other hand, all International PCAs performed directly for NGO's and ministry organizations receive a 20% discount from the standard fee.

You are responsible for the inspector's transportation from your nearest commercial airport to the inspection site, or to nearby simple accommodations. You are not responsible to pay for accommodations.

The inspector brings all needed tools, except for a ladder. If roofs or other areas cannot be inspected from the ground, then you are responsible to provide a safe, solidly-constructed ladder or scaffolding. The inspector reserves the right to decline use of unsafe ladders or scaffolding.

International Property Condition Assessments • Inspection • Report • Consultations are available in North America, Caribbean, South America, Asia and Pacific regions. Local laws and regulations always apply. PCAs are treated as a type of consultation in most countries. Remember that your International Property Condition Assessment is not a substitute for local building code inspections and zoning inspections. Commercial inspections are available in most USA locations, except where limited by local regulation. Residential inspections in the USA are available in Colorado.
