Question about ADA and ramps

David Switzer
Posted

Hey all!

I am interesting in a small (brand new) commercial condo, and when I entered for a viewing the floor had been slightly raised up (I think because of the basement) and there was a long ramp up the side of the room.  I asked why they did that and they said it was for the ADA compliance. (there was a tiny set of stairs also)

The developer told me there was also an alleyway down the side of the building that could most likely fit a wheelchair and had direct access to the condo, so it's possible that would satisfy the ADA and they could remove the ramp on the inside of the unit.

I have never dealt with a property like this before, so I'm wondering, who do I talk to to make sure this unit will be ADA compliant?
