What is a Defect Survey?

A defect survey is a non-invasive, visual inspection of common elements to identify possible defects. This optional service, which is part of a reserve study, documents potential defects and provides guidance as to the merits of conducting invasive investigations. It is best practice to obtain a defect survey prior to or shortly after your association is turned over from Declarant control.
