AEI Consultants vs SiteCompli

Building assessments — Phase I ESA, PCA, and related environmental/engineering due diligence

This is for acquisition teams and lenders who need a Phase I ESA or PCA report attached to a closing binder, not software to buy. AEI is a well-established, insurance-and-lender-accepted environmental/engineering firm, which matters when a bank's due diligence checklist specifies who can sign the report. It's not a platform play — pricing is deal-by-deal and turnaround depends on their local coverage and inspector availability, so it's not the right fit if you need instant, self-serve reports at portfolio scale.

NYC building compliance monitoring — scans DOB/FDNY/HPD/DEP/DOT databases and alerts on new violations

Buyer: NYC landlords, property managers, and compliance teams needing automated violation alerts across the city's fragmented regulatory agencies (DOB, FDNY, HPD, DEP, DOT) rather than manually checking each database. Strength: single-city depth means genuinely deep coverage of NYC's uniquely complex compliance landscape that a national tool couldn't replicate. Caveat: NYC-only, with zero relevance outside that market, and now part of Inhabit -- confirm integration and roadmap continuity with your rep.
