Thread: Residential Inspector has Commercial questions

My name is Rob Kinsey and have been doing residential inspections for about 15 years. I am new to posting here but have been doing a bit of reading of posts. I have a call for doing an inspection of a 41 unit apartment building (it was converted from a motel per buyer). Single story pitched roof with at least some attic space and at least some areas with basement.
As I have not done anything this large before and I am wondering if any of you can give me some input on a few things. Such as a method of operation that has worked well for this type of inspection. As for the report I am thinking there should be one part for the common areas of the interior, one for the common areas of the exterior, and one for each unit. Right? As my PIA is written for the normal single family inspection, what should I include for this inspection?
As for the pricing of this inspection should I go with an estimated time frame I think it will take and multiply it by an hourly rate? Is there some sort of a per unit structure I should think about?
Any input from you folks will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Ok, I'll bite. What happened to the posts on this thread?

I messed up with the original post and there is another (identical) with several replies there. Turns out the buyer backed out and all was just exercise.
