CIS provides comprehensive construction cost reviews, progress draw inspections, annual portfolio assessments, and a full suite of lender-focused inspection services.
We’ve inspected over $7.5bn in construction projects since 1999
We take ~450k construction photos annually and have seen it all!
We’ve been a trusted partner for over 250 lenders nationwide
Before construction begins, we review project plans, budgets, and contracts to identify risks or inconsistencies that could affect quality, cost, or timing. By validating that budgets are realistic, scope is complete, and terms are protective, we help lenders reduce exposure, prevent funding gaps, and ensure the project is properly structured from day one.
Throughout the build, we provide lenders with consistent on-site and photographic verification of progress to ensure work completed aligns with each draw request. Our team confirms appropriate use of funds, assesses remaining costs to complete, and identifies early signs of delay or risk. This ongoing oversight helps keep projects on schedule and within budget while reducing the lender’s exposure to financial loss.
We provide lenders with periodic evaluations of their existing commercial assets to verify property condition, occupancy, and overall upkeep. These inspections help identify deferred maintenance issues early, highlight potential risks, and ensure each asset remains secure, well-managed, and aligned with the lender’s long-term portfolio strategy.
