What Property Owners Say
“We thought we needed a full inspection. DrBalcony confirmed we were exempt and saved us tens of thousands.”
M. Ortiz
LA Owner
“Buyer’s lender asked for SB721. DrBalcony documented that our condo is covered by SB326, not SB721, and the deal closed on time.”
M. Chang
San Diego Broker
“Portfolio review was huge. Out of 11 properties, 5 were exempt. We redirected budget to roofs instead of inspections we didn’t need.”
T. Brooks
Regional PM, Los Angeles
Frequently Asked Questions
What happens if I miss the January 1, 2026 deadline?
Missing the deadline can result in fines from your local jurisdiction, potential liability issues if an accident occurs, and difficulty selling or refinancing your property. We recommend scheduling your inspection at least 60 days before the deadline to allow time for any necessary repairs.
How much does an SB721 inspection cost?
Costs vary by building size and complexity, but typically range from $1,500-$5,000 for most properties. Use our cost calculator for an instant estimate. Remember: we beat any competitor quote by 20%!
Can DrBalcony also do the repairs if issues are found?
To avoid conflicts of interest, we only conduct inspections. However, we can refer you to qualified, licensed contractors from our network who can handle any necessary repairs efficiently.
How long does the inspection process take?
The on-site inspection typically takes 2-4 hours depending on the number of units and elements. You’ll receive your detailed, compliance-ready report within 3-5 business days.
Do I need an inspection if my building is all concrete or steel?
While SB 721 focuses on wood-framed structures, you may still need documentation proving your exemption status. Take our 2-minute qualification quiz to find out for certain.
Don’t Wait Until the Deadline
Schedule your SB-721 inspection today and ensure your property is compliant, safe, and protected from liability.
