When Do You Need a Phase II ESA

A Phase II ESA happens when the Phase I finds signs of a problem.

If the property was used in a way that could have caused contamination,

A Phase II helps check if something harmful is really there.

It’s how you get real answers before you buy.

Phase I ESA

Findings

When a Phase I ESA identifies

Recognized Environmental Conditions (RECs)

or historical uses that

indicate potential contamination,

a Phase II ESA may be recommended

to confirm and assess the issue.

Past Use of Hazardous Materials

If the property or nearby sites were used for things like:

Gas stations or auto repair shops

Dry cleaners

Manufacturing or industrial facilities

…it may have leftover pollution in the soil or groundwater.

Lender

Requirement

Lenders in a real estate transaction

may request a Phase II ESA

to understand the

environmental risks

of the property.

What is included

Phase II Environmental Site Assessment

Smart, focused testing

We don’t guess where to test. We use the Phase I findings to focus on the right spots - saving you time, money, and stress.

Sampling and Lab analysis

We collect the right type of samples from soil, water, and sometimes indoor air. A lab tests to check for the chemicals - so you know what’s on the property.

Data Review

We check your test results to see if anything is wrong. This helps you understand the risk - so you can make smart choices and avoid big problems later.

Risk Assessment

We use the test results to see if there are problems - like deal delays or big cleanup costs. You’ll know what’s safe and what’s not before you buy.

Clear Report

You get a simple easy-to-read report that explains what we found, what it means, and what to do next - so you’re never left guessing.
