HouseFax pulls title records, liens, permit history, ownership chain, flood risk, and safety data from county public records into one report.
Liens, judgments, and unpermitted work are recorded with the county, not with the listing. They normally surface during escrow, weeks after you are already under contract and past the point of easy negotiation.
A title search happens after a contract is signed. HouseFax runs on public records you can pull today, while the price is still negotiable.
One report costs $12.99. A single open lien or unpermitted addition costs thousands to resolve after closing.
Every line traces to a county record: a recorded deed, a permit number, an assessed value, a dispatch report. Not estimates.
Twelve sections, compiled from county records and public databases into one document.
Open mortgages, liens, lis pendens, judgments, and satisfactions, with a clear verdict: Clean, Needs Review, or Red Flags.
Every building permit on file, with dates, values, and sign-off status, so missing permits are visible before you offer.
Full deed history, current owner, absentee and corporate flags, and how long the property has been held.
Every recorded sale with prices, grantors, grantees, and documentary stamps. See exactly what the seller paid and when.
Assessed value against market value against asking price, with a gap analysis showing where the number came from.
Recent nearby sales with price per sqft, distance, and property details. The same comps an appraiser would use.
FEMA flood zone, hurricane evacuation zone, and insurance cost indicators for the property location.
Nearby incidents and safety scoring built from actual county law enforcement dispatch records, not national averages.
Historical assessed values, tax amounts, and homestead cap status, so the first bill after closing is not a surprise.
Assigned schools, ratings, walkability, transit access, and proximity to parks, grocery, and hospitals.
Estimated nightly rate, occupancy, and annual revenue based on comparable rentals in the area.
Days on market, price drops, valuation gap, and open items on record combined into one leverage rating.
No subscription. No recurring charges.

No. The MLS is a listing and marketing database. Liens, judgments, and lis pendens are recorded with the county and normally only surface during a formal title search in escrow, which happens after a contract is signed. HouseFax pulls those records so you see them before you make an offer.
County public records. Property appraiser files, recorded deeds and sales, building permit records, tax records, FEMA flood designations, and county law enforcement incident data.
No. HouseFax is a records report, not a physical inspection. It shows what is documented with the county, including what permits exist and what is missing. You should still get an inspection.
