Why Due Diligence Inspection Matters Here
Boca Raton's premium real estate market demands thorough pre-acquisition due diligence. Our inspections document building envelope conditions, SB-4D compliance status, and deferred maintenance for informed investment decisions.
Coastal Considerations
Local Building Challenges
Boca Raton properties command high prices — making undiscovered deferred maintenance a proportionally larger financial risk. Our assessment quantifies these conditions before closing.

Building Stock Profile
Boca Raton's building stock includes an estimated 100+ condominium and apartment buildings above three stories, plus approximately 600+ commercial structures. The predominant construction era is 1970s-2010s, with facades primarily consisting of stucco, reinforced concrete, glass curtain wall, Mediterranean-style tile roofs. Boca Raton's strict height ordinances kept most buildings under 10 stories until recent variances, creating a unique inspection landscape where mid-rise buildings with extensive horizontal facades benefit especially from drone coverage.
Regulatory Requirements
Florida's SB-4D legislation requires milestone structural inspections for buildings 3+ stories at 25 years from the Certificate of Occupancy, with subsequent inspections every 10 years. An estimated 60+ buildings in Boca Raton are approaching or have passed this threshold.

Our Process
How Due Diligence Works in Boca Raton
From initial consultation to PE-certified report delivery — here is how we execute due diligence inspection for Palm Beach County properties.
Consultation & Planning
We assess your Boca Raton building's specifics — height, facade materials, access constraints, and local airspace requirements. A detailed flight plan is created and all FAA authorizations secured.
Drone Data Capture
FAA Part 107 certified pilots deploy commercial drones equipped with 50MP cameras to systematically capture your building's exterior surfaces. A typical inspection flight takes 4-8 hours depending on building size.
AI Analysis & Engineering Review
Captured imagery is processed through our AI defect detection pipeline, classifying up to 20 defect types with GPS coordinates. A Florida-licensed Professional Engineer reviews the findings and prepares the inspection report.
Report Delivery & Action Plan
Your PE-certified report is delivered promptly. It includes high-resolution imagery, AI defect classifications, repair priorities, and cost estimates — everything Palm Beach County engineers and property managers need to take action.

Frequently Asked Questions
What should Boca Raton buyers look for in due diligence?
Approaching SB-4D milestones, salt damage on coastal facades, balcony structural conditions, and roof system age are the primary concerns. Our inspection specifically documents these items with remediation cost estimates.
How does a due diligence inspection differ from a standard facade inspection in Boca Raton?
Due diligence inspections include a broader scope: all facades, roof, visible structural elements, parking structures, and ancillary buildings. The report emphasizes financial impact — deferred maintenance cost estimates, compliance timeline, and SIRS reserve adequacy — rather than purely technical condition documentation.
Can the report be customized for Boca Raton lender requirements?
Yes — we tailor report format and content to meet specific lender requirements. Commercial real estate lenders typically need condition ratings, cost estimates, and compliance assessments in particular formats. We coordinate with your lending team to ensure the deliverable meets their documentation standards.
