CONDITION & ENERGY AUDITS

Knowledge of your building’s energy performance is essential for effective property management. Further, in locations like Los Angeles, legislation is now in effect that mandates energy benchmarking, via ENERGY STAR® for all buildings over 20,000 sf, and mandates that Building Owners perform energy upgrades every two years. We provide the Energy Star benchmarking efforts, and can further advise our clients on the most cost effective measures to improve their score.

Modeling building energy performance is an important tool, whether using Energy Star, EETAP, or our LABBC technical advisory services.

R + A’s building survey team evaluates the utility systems of a building for potential buyers or sellers, to provide reliable information regarding existing conditions, the expected energy usage of the building, and the cost for replacement of equipment. We can make recommendations, along with cash flow and ROI analyses, to give the owner the financial tools to forecast future operational costs.
