GAIA SERVICES
Whether you’re securing financing or protecting an investment, a Phase 1 ESA surfaces environmental risk before it becomes your problem. Delivered through our partnership with a nationally certified firm with 27 years in the field.
A Phase 1 Environmental Site Assessment (ESA) is a standard component of commercial real estate due diligence. It evaluates a property for recognized environmental conditions (RECs) — past or present uses that could indicate contamination or environmental liability.
If you’re taking out a commercial loan, acquiring an investment property, or closing on a commercial transaction, a Phase 1 ESA is typically required by the lender — and it protects both the buyer and the financing institution.
GAIA Environmental Group provides Phase 1 ESA services in partnership with Environmental Assessment Services, Inc. (EAS) — a fully insured, nationally certified environmental firm with over 27 years of experience in due diligence and Phase 1 assessments.
EAS is certified by a nationally recognized environmental association and provides Phase 1 services not only across Florida but nationwide.
