Building Condition Assessments

Building condition assessments (BCAs) provide building owners, property managers, and asset advisers with a comprehensive evaluation of a building’s physical systems, including enclosure, structure, and mechanical, electrical, and plumbing (MEP) components. RDH delivers BCAs that connect current condition data with lifecycle timing and cost forecasting, supporting capital planning, transaction due diligence, and long-term asset management decisions.

• System-level condition documentation evaluates the performance, remaining service life, and deficiencies of all major building systems, including wildfire exposure factors for portfolios in fire-prone regions.
• Capital cost forecasting projects repair and replacement costs over a multi-year horizon to support budget planning and reserve fund studies.
• Transaction and due diligence support delivers findings in formats suitable for real estate transactions, financing requirements, and portfolio-level decision-making.

Where appropriate, RDH also supports clients with Electrical Planning Reports (EPRs), coordinating and preparing EPRs for strata corporations in British Columbia and other jurisdictions in collaboration with qualified electrical consultants. EPRs complement BCAs by providing the electrical planning information needed to support long-term capital planning, building electrification, and retrofit strategies.
