We Due Diligence!

​

Environmental due diligence isn't just a formality, it's a deep dive into the

ecological health of your property, which can directly affect its value and livability. 

The first step in your real estate transaction should be a thorough environmental study by our experienced professionals to find any potential hidden environmental problems.

“In order to provide our customers with the best product at the lowest price, McDonald’s requires the same of our environmental contractors. Michael O’Connor and AAI fill that requirement perfectly. I can pick up the phone and know I’ll have a proposal in my hand in an hour or two, with a firm due date and a very reasonable price. AAI also provides excellent follow-up services, when needed, after the report has been issued.”

“We recently hired AAI to evaluate one of our properties prior to putting it on the market. When the inspection revealed that a neighboring industrial facility was using a corner of our property as a burn pit and waste dump, we were afraid we’d spend months in court or thousands on a cleanup. Then Mr. O’Connor suggested something none of us thought of — convincing the owner of the adjoining industrial site to agree to a lot line adjustment to transfer ownership of the contaminated land to the industrial site. The owner of the industrial site site now owns the contamination he caused, and we’re now able to market the property free of any environmental encumbrances. AAI also streamlined the whole process by hiring the surveyor, helping with negotiations, and quickly updating the Phase I ESA to reflect the lot line adjustment. We really appreciate AAI’s personal service, innovative approach, and genuine concern for our situation.”
