Use this vacant property checklist to standardize inspections for closed or unoccupied retail and commercial sites. Verify exterior security and condition by checking doors, windows, landscaping, parking lot hazards, and lighting. Confirm alarms are active, note any roof or interior leaks, and ensure HVAC setpoints are correct. Lock roof hatches, review sprinklers and restrooms for leaks, and capture 10 exterior and 10 interior photos to document findings and drive corrective actions.
