Real estate engineering services help owners, tenants, brokers, and developers make confident, well-informed decisions. WFT Engineering aids with items like pre-lease due diligence, capital expenditure planning, code compliance evaluations, and sustainability analysis. Our team delivers clear, data-driven insights that reduce risk and support negotiations for long-term investment strategies. Having our engineers on your side can make all the difference in your commercial real estate actions.
A due diligence study typically evaluates existing mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and fire protection systems to determine code compliance, building condition, energy performance, and anticipated capital expenditures. This is completed before a lease or purchase is finalized.
Engineering reviews help identify system deficiencies, unusual maintenance responsibilities, compliance issues, and hidden costs. That way, tenants or potential owners fully understand their obligations before entering a long-term agreement.
We provide technical analysis that highlights mechanical or electrical requirements, as well as potential upgrade costs, compliance gaps, and landlord/tenant responsibilities, giving clients key information to negotiate favorable terms.
Life-Cycle Cost Analysis (LCCA) compares the long-term cost of equipment or system options to help owners select solutions with the best long-term financial return. This includes installation, maintenance, energy use, and replacement.
