Every figure on this page is computed from the inputs you enter, by the method stated below it. WalkthroughDesk publishes no average repair costs and quotes no survey: the defaults are a worked example to replace with your own.
Commercial property inspection software has a different job from the residential kind. There is no deposit to split; there is an owner who wants to know what needs fixing now, what it will cost, and what the building will need next year. The report has to walk every tenanted suite, every common area and every building system, log the deficiencies by severity with a cost against each, and end on an immediate repair figure the owner can act on. This guide is about what that software has to carry, and the free commercial property inspection report tool on this site works the figures with no account.

Walk suites, common areas and systems as three lists
A commercial building is three inspections in one: the tenanted suites the leases make the tenant responsible for, the common areas the owner keeps, and the building systems (roof, HVAC, fire, electrical, plumbing, lifts, envelope) that fail expensively and quietly. The report should keep them separate, because the same deficiency means a tenant charge in one list and a capital item in another.
Cost the deficiencies in two grades, in your figures
Minor is a maintenance ticket; major is a contractor, a permit or a system out of service. The tool asks for your cost per grade because an owner acts on a figure they can trace to a quote, and prints the immediate repair estimate as the headline, with the per-suite figure beside it so a portfolio owner can compare one building against another.
Put the reserve beside the repair figure, not instead of it
The annual capital reserve is the owner's number: what they set aside per square foot for the roof and the plant that will need replacing whether or not this inspection found anything. Showing it beside the immediate repairs stops a bad quarter looking like a bad building, and stops a clean walkthrough being read as a reason to skip the reserve.
Commercial property inspection software: common questions
What should commercial property inspection software include?
Separate checklists for tenanted suites, common areas and building systems; a deficiency log with a photo, a severity and a cost; an immediate repair estimate with a per-suite figure; the owner's capital reserve beside it; and the report saved against the building so this quarter's walk sits beside last quarter's. It is not an engineer's property condition assessment, and the report should say so.
How is a commercial inspection report different from a residential one?
There is no fair wear and tear split and no deposit, so the report is written for the owner rather than the tenant: what needs fixing now, what it costs, who is responsible under the lease, and what the building will need next. The tool on this site reflects that: it ends on the immediate repair estimate rather than a tenant charge.
Is there a free commercial property inspection report tool?
Yes. The commercial property inspection report tool on this site is free and needs no account: it counts the areas and systems walked, logs deficiencies by severity, prices them at your figures and ends on the immediate repair estimate with the per-suite figure and the owner's reserve beside it.
