Unexpected deteriorations should still be anticipated. The assessment should not be considered a

guarantee or warranty of any kind. Each component of the report should be thoroughly examined as

many issues arise within the course of the inspection which limits the visual inspection.

The Scope Of The Assessment

Purpose

The purpose of this assessment was to provide an observation and report on the physical condition

and maintenance of the property and its improvements. This report addresses items that we believe

are significant for the continued operation of this facility in its current usage and occupancy,

consistent with comparable properties of similar nature.

Scope

Structure & Site’s scope of services for this assessment included a visit to the property with

observations of the property and its improvements, reviews of available construction and maintenance

documents, and interviews with various persons. The purpose of these observations was to assess

the general physical condition and maintenance status of the property and to recommend repair and

operation and/or to be restored to a good condition consistent with comparable properties of similar

age.

Opinions of cost for recommended repairs have been prepared and divided into two categories:

Immediate repair needs and Short term needs. Immediate Repair Needs are those repairs that are

beyond the scope of regular maintenance that should be performed within one year of the date of the

report. Short-term needs are those items needing repair or replacement to remedy physical

deficiencies, such as deferred maintenance, that are beyond the scope of regular maintenance that

should be undertaken on a priority basis within one to two years.

Overall General Description

The subject property, developed in approximately over two decades ago for use as an industrial motor

workshop facility. The complex consisting of multiple single story workshop flatlats is approximately

5000m2 in size.

STRUCTURE OBSERVATIONS

The building walls of the Transido Motor Town properties are in extremely bad conditions.

Common major settlement cracks were observed in the building walls. This could imply that some structural movement of the building has occurred. Cracks of this type should be watched for any sign of additional movement. In the absence of any sign of ongoing movement, repair should not be necessary.

As seen above, one of the structures in the property, approximately 250m2 has collapsed walls and

the roof has been blown away by heavy winds.

ROOFING OBSERVATIONS

Many factors influence the longevity of roofs including; weather, quality of shingle and installation

method, proximity of tree limbs, degree of slope and amount of rooftop ventilation. Roofs with multiple

layers of cover typically have a shorter life span and require additional costs for removal when re-

roofing becomes necessary. Properly sloped roofs usually last longer than flat roofs.

Repairs to the roofing are needed. Damaged or missing roofing material should be repaired. All roof penetrations should be examined and sealed as necessary. Prior repairs to the roofing are evident. This would suggest that problems have been experienced in the past. This area should be monitored.

EXTERIOR OBSERVATIONS

The above deterioration was observed in all the buildings on the property. Localized pointing of

deteriorated mortar between the bricks of the exterior walls is advisable to prevent further

deterioration. The block should be painted to preserve the material.

Water reticulation system is constantly heavily leaking; the water runs through the mechanic tenant’s

workshops and moves with the oil grease to near vegetation.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM OBSERVATION

The electrical system is live and working properly on most of the buildings on site. However, the

cables are exposed as seen above on the electrical mains. With the constant leaking water in the

property, this is dangerous.

PLUMBING / SANITARYFITTINGS OBSERVATION

Water closets and showers look like they have not been maintained in years. All the sanitary in the

property are deteriorated and not in a healthy condition for use by tenants.

ACCESS TO THE PROPERTY

The property is fairly accessible. Parking is provided externally, however it is impossible to park

outside due large number of dysfunctional vehicles in the property yard.

LIMITATIONS OF THE ASSESSMENT

Evidence of prior leaks may be disguised by interior finishes.

Estimates of remaining roof life are approximations only and do not preclude the possibility of

leakage.

Leakage can develop at any time and may depend on rain intensity, wind direction and other

factors.

Roof inspection may be limited by access, condition, weather, or other safety concerns.

A representative sample of exterior components was inspected rather than every occurrence

of components.

The inspection does not include an assessment of geological, geotechnical, or hydrological

conditions, or environmental hazards.
