Looks up the security deposit rules (deposits only) for one US state, with a covered city's deposit ordinance (Chicago, San Francisco, Berkeley, Los Angeles, Seattle, Portland, Minneapolis, Saint Paul). Inputs: state (two-letter code); optional city. Returns the deposit return deadline and what starts it, itemization and documentation duties, allowed deductions and depreciation, deposit interest, penalties, the deposit cap and recent changes, with citations. Not for: settling a specific move-out (deposit_settlement_settle does that), evictions, unpaid-rent collection, rent increases or rent control, lease renewal or notice periods, legal advice. Deterministic and source-cited: the same input gives the same result.

Settles a US residential security deposit after move-out under the state's statute (50 states and DC) and a covered city's ordinance. Inputs: state, deposit_usd, vacated_on; optional city, monthly_rent_usd, move_in_on, deductions (category, amount, item age, whether the tenant caused it), the dates that start a state's clock, and as_of. Returns the return deadline and its status, each deduction allowed or not (with depreciation), interest owed, refund due, penalty exposure, a draft itemized statement and a citation for every rule. Not for: legal advice, tenant demand letters, repair cost estimates, pet deposits, rentals outside the US. Deterministic and source-cited: the same input gives the same result.

Estimates what it costs to turn over a US rental unit after move-out; the first tool for a turnover estimate. Inputs: a 5-digit ZIP, bedrooms, bathrooms and the issues in plain English (e.g. "stained carpet in both bedrooms"), which may come from the user's photos; optional unit type, size, year built. Returns a priced make-ready estimate: repair tasks by trade with low/expected/high costs for the ZIP, priorities, refer-outs to licensed professionals, assumptions and links. Issues the matcher cannot place are read by an AI model; the answer is then a draft that lists what was read (reading). Not for: diagnosing hazards, legal advice on deposits, remodel bids, properties outside the US. The same findings under the same ruleset give the same result; AI never sets a number.

Turns move-out inspection findings for a US rental unit into a priced make-ready scope. For a first estimate use property_turnover_quick_estimate; use this one for rate cards, owner decisions, measured quantities or confirmed findings. Inputs: property (ZIP, bedrooms, bathrooms, optional details) and findings (description or issue code, location, extent, quantity); optional rate_card, decisions, detail, read. Returns tasks by trade, low/expected/high costs, priorities, vendor scopes, refer-outs, assumptions, unknowns and download links. Text is read by the matcher alone unless read=ai. Not for: diagnosing hazards, legal advice on deposits, remodel bids, properties outside the US. The same findings under the same ruleset give the same result; AI never sets a number.

Searches the standard taxonomy of rental-unit turnover issues (component.issue codes such as carpet.pet_urine). Inputs, all optional: query (keywords), area (e.g. flooring), limit (default 8). With no arguments it lists the taxonomy areas and the first codes. Returns matching codes with names and areas, and the total match count. Codes are optional: the turnover estimate tools also accept plain descriptions. Not for: cost estimates, legal or security-deposit questions, work other than rental turnover. Deterministic and source-cited: the same input gives the same result.
