A decision to purchase or lease a property is often more influenced by commercial pressures than the actual quality of the land and building. However, due diligence can alert you to any issues that will affect the building in the long-run. This enables the risks inherent in property acquisition to be managed. In general, getting legal due diligence is a normal practice in the real estate market. Unfortunately, doing legal due diligence only emphasizes ownership title clearance and land area size and measurements as per government records. So legal due diligence report doesn't highlight any technical or environmental risks that can obstruct or hamper the project's investment.

How Technical and Environment Due Diligence plays vital role in real estate activities?

The due diligence process is an important step in the real estate development process. It is a crucial step to ensure that the project will be successful. Due diligence is a critical process that must be followed if a project is to be successful. It involves assessing the risks involved in the project and any available information that may pose a risk, such as environmental hazards, social or community impacts, economic impacts, and construction risks. Due diligence mandates the collaboration with outside experts to successfully perform its function.

A technical due diligence is a process of investigation and analysis to determine the suitability of an investment in the land or building. Before initiating any kind of real estate project, it is crucial to make sure that the regulatory and statutory frameworks governing the envisaged class of buildings are understood. Failure to do so can lead to impediments in execution of the project and long-term difficulties for building occupants. The applicable building bylaws and state laws need to be considered and employed at various phases of the construction process so that the project is hassle-free for the owner and the occupants.

Purchasers should always remember that caveat emptor, or "let the buyer beware," is the doctrine that governs all property transactions.

An environmental due diligence is a process that provides information on all aspects of an environment that may affect the business operations or performance of an organization. It includes natural hazards, environmental regulations, land use restrictions, cultural considerations, labor relations, community development activities, political stability and quality-of-life issues. There is a variety of different views on what should be included under an environmental due diligence, but typically the process incorporates a review of local land use and zoning restrictions, as well as environmental regulations. An environment due diligence is a report that evaluates an individual's or company's ability to comply with environmental laws in order to avoid fines or penalties.

The famous Latin maxim "Ignorantia legis neminem excusat" states that there is no excuse for not knowing the law, and ignorance of the law does not excuse anything. Someone who is ignorant of the law cannot claim an ignorance defense.
