How permit expediters and property managers equal approvals

Permit expediters and property managers make a great team. Here at Green Light Expediting, we're always ready to consult with property management companies and happy to help with sign-offs and approvals. Here are just a few benefits to combining our expertise with yours.

The benefits of permit expediters and property managers working together

Day-to-day property management involves a lot of effort. Add in a building renovation or modification? The amount of work spent researching and figuring out details can easily overtake property managers' time. In these cases (and more), finding a permit expediting firm makes a big difference. We help projects run smoothly and stay on track.

Our services are a second set of eyes

Because of the nature of the job, property managers deal with occupancy and tenant laws all of the time. But building renovations bring plenty of extra liability to the equation. Having permit expediters on your side helps. The reason? We’re a second set of eyes, checking and filing your tenant protection plan (TPP) application to make sure that it’s ready for approval and includes:

·      detailed crew entry and exit points

·      how to maintain essential services

·      noise compliance

·      tenant notification

·      and any and all other requirements needed

We keep budgets on track

We know you have a fiduciary responsibility to your clients. Our services can help you uphold it because we offer tailored, specific guidance. We review every detail of drawings and plans. And, we use our many years of expertise to identify all applicable codes and regulations and assess them against your project.

All of these steps let us secure fast approvals for permits. Quick turnaround manages costs for you and your client. Because it saves money over the long haul, minimizing delays and issues shows building owners you have their best financial interests in mind.

We are a one-stop shop to track filings, manage sign-offs, and inform you of any violations

Hiring an expediter to manage all the filings in your building gives you a one-stop-shop to track all of the filings, make sure they are signed off in an orderly fashion, and inform you when violations arise or if a Temporary Certificate of Occupancy is about to expire. This is helpful because open filings can accumulate, and the longer you wait to sign them off, the more difficult it is. That open plumbing application from 2002? You now may need to open the walls to allow the DOB to inspect, 18 years after the fact. You may even need to refile it from scratch because new codes have come out since then.

And that's where we come in. Because we know all things permitting, we can do anything from double-check your work to manage the entire process for you. Our years of experience let us seamlessly deal with government entities and agencies and locate and decipher building codes. As a result, we're able to submit applications that are designed for approval and make sure your building is in full compliance.
