Lafayette due-diligence FAQ
What does an environmental records screen for a Lafayette, CA property show?
It surfaces what the public EPA record (ECHO/RCRA/TRI) holds within about one mile of the address — formal enforcement actions, current violations, and assessed penalties at nearby regulated facilities. Public EPA records show no significant enforcement signal within about 1 mile of Lafayette, California. The paid report adds the facility names, distances, exact amounts, and a plain-English screening rating for the specific address you enter.
Is this a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment (ESA)?
No. This is a preliminary, descriptive screen of public federal records — not an ASTM E1527 Phase I ESA, not All Appropriate Inquiries (AAI), and not legal advice. It does not visit the site, interview anyone, or certify the property. Use it to decide whether a full Phase I (typically $2,000–$5,000) is warranted before you close.
Why run this before an SBA loan or commercial purchase in Lafayette, CA?
Lenders, title/escrow, and SBA programs care about environmental exposure because contamination can transfer to a new owner. A $399 records screen lets you see the public EPA signal in minutes — for a fraction of a Phase I — and hand a forwardable record to your lender, partner, or attorney early in diligence.
What does the Lafayette, CA report cost and what do I get?
A single full report is $399 for one property (a 5-Pack is $1,499 and Portfolio Watch is $999/yr). You get the facility-level detail behind the signal, distances, penalty amounts, a Low/Moderate/High screening rating, what it means, a recommendation, and a clean branded PDF — emailed to you. All sales are final.
Does a clean result mean the Lafayette property has no environmental risk?
No. Public databases can be incomplete or lag the agencies that maintain them, and the absence of a listed record does not guarantee a property is free of environmental concerns. A clean screen is a useful, forwardable data point — not a certification — and is not a substitute for a Phase I ESA.
How current and where does the data come from?
Directly from the U.S. EPA's public ECHO/RCRA/TRI databases at lookup time. Vertexium Environmental is an independent firm and is not affiliated with or endorsed by the EPA or any government agency.

Honest scope
This is a preliminary, descriptive screening of public EPA records — not an ASTM E1527 Phase I Environmental Site Assessment, not All Appropriate Inquiries (AAI), and not legal advice. It does not satisfy a lender’s AAI or landowner-liability requirements. Public databases can be incomplete or lag the agencies that maintain them, and the absence of a listed record does not guarantee a property is free of environmental concerns. Use this screen to decide whether a full Phase I ESA is warranted; do not use it as a substitute for one.
