2nd Avenue SubwayMay 18, 2007


I have a building on second avenue where they are building the subway (UES). I have recieved solicitations from an engineering company to survey the building for the MTA.

I believe it prudent to hire a company to represent me and my interest (the buildings), and think we would be negligent if we did not. A company that heas been reccomended to me is REAP Consulting, LLC who performs complete surveys of the existing contitions of the building, monitors, even will testify/arbitrate on our behalf if needed. They do alot more than just the engineering portion of a survey...

Question: My question is, has anyone ever had experience with them? Is this the best route for me?

2nd Avenue Subway - AR May 18, 2007


I manage several buildings on second avenue, between 62 and 96 streets. I am using REAP, who came highly reccomended, but I have not any prior experience with them. The reports they did for my building were extremely detailed and we even are using it for identifying and budgeting capital improvements and future repairs. The cost was fairly inexpensive and worth the investment.
I got this from thier website "Without us, you may end up spending years in court chasing financial remuneration for damages that you cannot prove were not existing, or did not happen from other circumstances." - REAPConsultingllc.com - I know first hand this to be true. Do it.
