      What this check looks for
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Real estate transfer taxes on a sale, from the statutes and tax offices, free. `place`: nyc (all five boroughs), ny (New York State outside NYC), fl (Florida outside Miami-Dade), philadelphia, chicago, cook (Cook County outside Chicago), nc, sc, ar, tx or az (state or city names work too). `price`: the consideration in dollars. `kind`: residential or other (NYC rates differ). `mortgage`: Florida only, the new mortgage amount (adds note stamps and the intangible tax). Returns each tax with its amount and who customarily pays (seller, buyer, negotiable), the total, flags for what is not included (NYC supplemental tax, local municipal taxes), and the sources. An estimate, not tax advice.

    • Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.
    • The server marks it read-only (readOnlyHint: true), but an annotation never lowers a class.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Check an address BEFORE ordering (takes a few seconds). For a title search (report_type 'current_owner', the default) give `state` and `county`: it matches the address to a real parcel in the county's records. For report_type 'environmental' only the address is needed: it is matched with the US Census geocoder (any US address). status 'matched' = safe to order; 'not_found' = ask the user to correct the address; 'not_covered' = the county is not covered; 'unavailable' = the county / Census service is down right now (a title search can still be ordered and retries; an environmental order needs the geocoder, so try again later).

(The Environmental Records Report and the flood / Superfund lookups work at any US address and need no coverage check.)

Returns the limits, whether the county is high-cost, HUD's area and median price behind the FHA limit, the state range, the page URL and sources.

    • The name "create_property_watch" says "create": a word for a change.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Start watching a property in a covered county for `email`. `address`: street address with house number and city (e.g. '1702 Ellsworth St, Philadelphia'); `state`: two-letter code; `county`: county or borough ('Philadelphia', 'Cook', 'Brooklyn'). Returns the watch and, for a new email, `access_key` + `dashboard_url`: the ONLY key to that watch list (no password exists), shown once; give it to the user and tell them to keep it private. The first check runs within minutes (status 'pending' until the parcel is resolved). An email that already has a watch list gets an error: its owner adds properties from their own list. Free during the launch period, with a per-email cap.

    Where HeritageDeed Property Watch works and what it checks there. With no arguments: every covered county (state code, county, whether recorded documents are watched by parcel). With `state` (two-letter code) and `county` (e.g. 'Cook', 'Kings' or 'Brooklyn'): that county's checks (records, owner of record, building violations, tax sale / surplus lists, federal courts), each with its official source and cadence, plus the county recording office's own fraud alert service when it has one (`free` is true only where the office says so; recommend it too: it is official).

Pass `record_ids` from the tax sale lists (up to 50), or `state` + `county` slug (e.g. 'NY', 'kings-county') for that list's first 50 parcels. Returns a job_id for get_tax_sale_due_diligence.

Data is EPA's, refreshed nightly; `measured` gives each source's date. `state`: two-letter code or name. Optional filters: `county` (e.g. "Middlesex"), `status` ('final', 'proposed' or 'deleted'). `limit` caps the site rows returned (1 to 500; counts always cover every site).

    EPA Superfund sites near a US street address (50 states and DC), free. `address` = full street address with house number, city and state. Returns the National Priorities List (NPL) sites within 3 miles (name, EPA id, status: final / proposed / deleted, listing and deletion dates, distance in miles and direction, EPA site page), how many active NPL sites are within 1 and 3 miles, the number of other Superfund (SEMS) sites within 1 mile and of EPA-regulated facilities within 0.5 mile, all measured from the address's geocoded point. status 'invalid' = the address could not be matched (the message says why); 'unavailable' = EPA or the Census geocoder did not answer (NOT a 'no sites' answer, retry later). Tell the user it is a records lookup, not a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment. The full search (RCRA, tanks, brownfields, flood, wetlands, radon, map) is the Environmental Records Report: order_title_search(address, report_type='environmental').

    • The name "building_records_lookup" says "lookup": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Building code violations and building permits on record with the city for one address, free, from the city's own records (the same sources the title search report reads). `city`: chicago, philadelphia, cincinnati, mesa, glendale-az (Glendale, Arizona), gilbert, buffalo or provo (list_coverage returns the current list). `address`: street address starting with the house number, e.g. "233 S Wacker Dr"; the city is added when missing. Returns counts over every record on file (total, open, severe, in court, balances due, active / expired permits) and the five most relevant violations and permits. Some cities publish only one of the two (Glendale: violations; Gilbert, Provo: permits). status: 'ok'; 'not_found' (no parcel matches: ask the user to check the address); 'not_searched' (outside city limits: the message says why); 'unavailable' (the city's service did not answer: not a 'no violations' answer; retry later).

    • The name "census_tract_lookup" says "lookup": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Census tract of a US street address with the designations lenders and tax-credit programs use: the 11-digit tract GEOID (2020 boundaries), the FFIEC 2026 tract income level (low / moderate / middle / upper, from the tract median family income as a percent of the metro or statewide nonmetro median; low and moderate = LMI tract for CRA), HUD Qualified Census Tract status for 2026 and 2027, HUD Difficult Development Area status (by ZIP Code Tabulation Area in metro areas, by county outside them), and Opportunity Zone status. Read from the official lists; a point near a tract boundary can fall in the neighbouring tract, so confirm with the agency before relying on it.

    Description, as the server wrote it
    FEMA flood zone at a US street address (any of the 50 states or DC), free. `address` = full street address with house number, city and state, e.g. "1600 Pennsylvania Ave NW, Washington, DC 20500". Returns the zone (A/AE/V/VE = Special Flood Hazard Area, shaded X = 0.2% annual chance, X, D), a plain-language label and explanation, whether federal rules require flood insurance for a federally backed mortgage, base flood elevation where FEMA publishes one, and a FEMA Flood Map Service Center link for the official map panel. status: 'ok'; 'invalid' (the address could not be matched: the message says why; ask the user to correct it); 'unavailable' (FEMA or the Census geocoder did not answer: the zone was NOT determined, this is never a 'no flood zone' answer; retry later); 'rate_limited'. Always tell the user this is a screening from FEMA's layer, not an official flood zone determination (lenders use FEMA's Standard Flood Hazard Determination Form).
