Commercial & Multifamily · ROM Budget Included
A full property condition assessment for commercial and multifamily assets — performed by certified construction professionals who've spent decades in the construction defect and reconstruction industry diagnosing and fixing these exact problems. You don't get adjectives. You get a ROM budgetary figure, a 1, 3, or 5-year phased repair plan built around your capital strategy, and two ways to get the work done.
Commercial & Multifamily PCAs
Most condition reports end in adjectives — 'fair,' 'serviceable,' 'monitor.' You can't budget against an adjective. Every RECON PCA ends in a ROM budgetary figure mapped to a phased plan, because the people doing the assessing have spent decades pricing and repairing exactly what they find. An engineer writes about buildings. We've spent our careers tearing them open and putting them back together.
A full condition assessment of the commercial or multifamily asset: roof systems, building envelope, exteriors and sealants, balconies and walkways, site drainage and hardscape, and the visible condition of major building systems. Every finding photographed, located on the property, and rated by severity and consequence — the same documentation discipline we bring to every RECON closeout.
We are not engineers, and we say that plainly: RECON is not an engineering firm and does not provide engineering services — assessments are performed by certified construction professionals. Our assessors hold numerous certifications in Building Envelope and Roofing and have spent decades in the construction defect and reconstruction industry diagnosing and repairing these exact failures. Boots-on-roof experience over letterhead.
A written report with photo-documented findings, plus the part most reports never deliver: a ROM — rough order of magnitude — budgetary figure developed for your needs, mapped to a 1-year, 3-year, or 5-year phased repair plan. A number ownership can take to a budget meeting, a board, a lender, or an insurance conversation.
We define what the assessment needs to answer — budgeting season, an acquisition, an insurance conversation — and review what exists: drawings, leak logs, past repairs, reserve studies, prior reports. History explains most of what we find on the wall.
Systematic assessment of roofs, elevations, balconies, site, and interior evidence locations, with every finding photographed and keyed to location. Assessed by people who have opened up and rebuilt these assemblies for decades — we know where buildings hide their problems.
Findings are priced into a ROM budgetary figure and sequenced into the phasing plan that fits your capital strategy — triage the next 12 months, balance it over three years, or plan the long horizon over five.
We walk the report with your team or board, then you pick the execution path: RECON self-performs the repairs, RECON manages the right partner as your CM — or you take the report and run. No obligation either way.
1 / 3 / 5-Year Phasing
Capital plans aren't one-size-fits-all, so the phasing isn't either. Every PCA maps the ROM budgetary figure across the plan that matches how you fund repairs — and every phase is sequenced by consequence, so the money goes at what's causing damage first.
The 12-month plan. Active leaks, life-safety items, and the failures actively costing you money get priced and sequenced first. For owners who need the bleeding stopped this budget cycle — with a ROM figure for exactly what that takes.
The middle path. Urgent work up front, then the next tier of repairs spread across three budget years so no single year takes the full hit. ROM figures mapped per phase — the plan most boards and asset managers actually approve.
The full picture. Every finding sequenced across five years by severity and consequence, with ROM figures per phase — built for reserve studies, acquisitions, and owners planning capital across a hold period instead of reacting to failures.
ROM means rough order of magnitude — a planning-grade budgetary figure developed for your needs, not a fixed bid. It's the number that lets you reserve, phase, and negotiate before anyone mobilizes a crew.
After the Assessment
This is where a RECON PCA stops being a report and starts being a plan with an execution arm. When you're ready to act on the findings, you choose the path — and either way, one accountable party answers the phone.
Path 01
We make the repairs ourselves. The same certified construction professionals who assessed the property scope the work, mobilize the crews, and execute it with RECON's GC-lite discipline — defined scopes, real schedules, photo-documented QC, and a closeout package for the file. The people who found the problems fix them.
Path 02
Some scopes call for a specialist — so we find the right partner for the work and manage them throughout the repair. RECON vets the contractor, levels the bids, holds the schedule and quality standard, and protects the owner's interests end to end. You get the right crew for the job without babysitting them yourself.
Or take door number three: keep the report, run the work yourself. The PCA stands on its own — execution is an option, never an obligation.
Both are RECON assessments. They answer different questions — and they're built not to step on each other.

| Property Condition Assessment | Envelope IQ™ | |
|---|---|---|
| Scope | The whole property — roof, envelope, exteriors, balconies, site, major systems | Building envelope only — roofs, walls, windows, waterproofing |
| The number | ROM budgetary figure mapped to a 1, 3, or 5-year phasing plan | Prioritized capital recommendations — no construction pricing attached |
| Construction | Optional execution: RECON self-performs or manages the repair as your CM | Never includes the construction work — fully independent by design |
| Built for | Budgeting, acquisitions, insurance conversations, capital planning — then getting the work done | Boards, lenders, and underwriters who need findings with no bid behind them |
Need envelope-only independence? That's Envelope IQ™. Need the whole asset assessed, priced, and — if you choose — repaired? That's a PCA.
Fit
Budgeting season and capital planning with a ROM figure behind every line item — and acquisition due diligence that tells you what the asset will actually cost to own before you close.
A phased plan that gives owners a reason for the number and gives the board cover for the decision — with an execution arm ready when the vote passes, so approval doesn't stall into another year of deferral.
Condition clarity before money moves: documented findings, a ROM budget, and a phased plan a lender or investment committee can underwrite — from people who fix these buildings for a living, not a template report.
No — and we're not pretending to be. RECON is not an engineering firm and does not provide engineering services. Our assessments are performed by certified construction professionals holding numerous Building Envelope and Roofing certifications, with decades in the construction defect and reconstruction industry diagnosing and fixing these exact problems. An engineer writes about buildings; we've spent our careers tearing them open and repairing them. If a scope genuinely needs a stamped engineering opinion, we'll tell you — and help you get it.
ROM stands for rough order of magnitude — a planning-grade budgetary figure developed for your needs. It's not a fixed bid; it's the number that lets you reserve funds, phase work across budget years, and negotiate from an informed position. When you're ready to execute, the ROM becomes the baseline for real scopes and real pricing.
No. The PCA stands on its own. When you're ready to act, you have three options: RECON self-performs the work, RECON acts as your construction manager — finding the right partner and managing them throughout the repair — or you take the report and run the work however you want. The assessment is valuable either way; that's the point of it.
It depends on the size and complexity of the property — a single building moves faster than a sprawling multifamily community. After a short scoping conversation we'll give you a real timeline for the site walk and the report. What we won't do is rush the walk; the ROM is only as good as the assessment under it.
It becomes your CapEx roadmap. The ROM figure and the 1, 3, or 5-year phasing plan feed straight into our CapEx Projects & Tenant Improvements line — RECON prices each phase, schedules it against your budget years, and executes it GC-lite: self-performed where it should be, tightly managed trades where it shouldn't. Assessment to execution, one accountable party the whole way.
Request a PCA
Tell us about the asset and what the assessment needs to support — budgeting season, an acquisition, an insurance conversation, a board that wants a number. We'll scope the PCA, walk the property, and hand you a ROM budget with a phasing plan you can actually execute.
Thanks — your request is in. A RECON team member will reach out within one business day to get it scheduled. If it's urgent, call (720) 555-0134.
