Due Diligence

A Phase 1 Environmental Site Assessment (ESA) is a powerful tool for protecting and enhancing property value. By identifying environmental risks early, owners can maintain marketability, secure financing, and prevent costly liabilities—ensuring their assets remain strong investments.

Regular Phase 1 Environmental Site Assessments (ESAs) are critical for property owners aiming to safeguard their investments. By detecting environmental risks early, maintaining regulatory compliance, and supporting future development, routine ESAs help preserve property value, secure financing, and minimize costly liabilities.

Before you finance or buy that next property, think twice—what’s underground could cost you everything. A Phase 1 ESA isn’t just paperwork—it’s your shield against contamination, lawsuits, and major financial loss.

Before closing on any property, it’s critical to understand potential environmental hazards like soil contamination, poor air quality, or hidden hazardous materials. A Phase 1 ESA can reveal risks that affect property value and your peace of mind. Learn how to identify and manage them before it’s too late.
