Your first property investigation

Go from an address or parcel to a private research case and an informed next step.

Choose your research

Choose topics, property type, proposed use, and the report mode that fits your question.

Deal numbers

Calculate an offer without hiding your assumptions

Work backward from a supportable resale value and test your margin.

Calculate cash flow beyond rent minus mortgage

Include vacancy, operating expenses, financing, and reserves.

Compare scenarios

Test downside, base, and upside assumptions while keeping saved analysis versions clear.

Property research

Understand property evidence

Check parcel identity, conflicting facts, evidence strength, and unresolved questions.

Interpret market evidence

Distinguish asking prices, transfers, closed sales, assessments, and estimates.

Find the government office responsible for your property

Separate assessor, recorder, planning, building, and court responsibilities.

What to verify before making an offer

Turn missing and conflicting evidence into specific next steps.

Local rules

Read zoning, assessed use, and overlays separately

A tax classification does not establish permission for your proposed use.

Probate & estate sales

Locate probate records and the recorded representative

Find the correct court and distinguish filed authority from an inference.

CountyEdge how-tos

Keep calculator snapshots, research cases, and completed reports in context.

Track research and troubleshoot

Return to a case, understand its progress, and respond to gaps or unavailable research.

Read and download documents

Distinguish original files, captures, extracts, and report PDFs before relying on them.

Investment requests and opportunities

Review criteria, manage request status, and interpret matches with verification gaps.

Connect and disconnect an AI assistant

Connect a trusted assistant to saved reports, understand token permissions, and revoke access.

Reference

Evidence labels, glossary, and corrections

Understand evidence labels, report states, dates, assumptions, and document types.

Your account and privacy

Understand sign-in, private work, saved history, bookmarks, and account controls.
