A better way to research land

Stop researching land the hard way.

Parcel View turns scattered first-pass research into one guided screening—so you spend less time hunting for records and more time deciding what to do next.

The old way

  1. Search county assessor
  2. Find APN & parcel map
  3. Open zoning GIS
  4. Check FEMA separately
  5. Find general plan map
  6. Look up municipal code
  7. Check CAL FIRE hazard
  8. Open soils survey
  9. Download PDFs
  10. Compile notes by hand

Often days, before you even know where to start.

The Parcel View way

  1. Paste address or APN
  2. 2-minute screening report
  3. Official source links on every row
  4. Done — verify with planning

A credible first read in minutes, not hours.

What we are

A first read you can actually trust.

Parcel View gives you a structured screening report across parcel facts, planning, hazards, and official source links. It is informational only, so final decisions should still be verified with the right agency.

How it works

Start here instead of endless hours on your own.

Enter an address or APN. Parcel View finds the parcel, checks official public records, and turns the results into a structured summary with source links.

  1. Start with the land

    Search by address or APN. Parcel View identifies the parcel boundary and the right county jurisdiction.

  2. Reveal the constraints

    Zoning, flood, fire, soils, geology, slope, and planning data are checked together for your lot.

  3. Leave with direction

    Findings land in a structured summary, with official source links to guide verification and next steps.

Capabilities

Confidence before the costly next step.

One clear picture

Planning, hazards, soils, and constraints come together in one structured view instead of separate maps to interpret yourself.

Trust, linked back

Every finding points back to the county planning department, FEMA, CAL FIRE, or the originating agency map.

Momentum while it loads

Findings appear as the report builds, so you can start reviewing results before every layer finishes.

Know what is missing

Coverage indicators show when data is missing, partial, or complete, so you know what still needs verification.

Plain English from the start

Search naturally. Parcel View handles the parcel lookup and cross-checks official records behind the scenes.

California-ready coverage

58 counties, millions of parcels, and dozens of statewide datasets are organized into one workflow.

Intelligence

Ask questions about your parcel in plain English.

Parcel View Intelligence will answer in context—grounded in your screening results and California land knowledge. Launching after API integration and training.

  • "Can I build an ADU on this lot?"
  • "Will I need flood insurance here?"
  • "What permits would I likely need?"
  • "Can I keep horses on this land?"
  • "What should I ask county planning staff?"

Lenders & appraisers

Pull flood, fire, and zoning context fast for collateral review, with an official source link behind every finding.

Environmental & civil consultants

Start scoping with geology, soils, slope, and hazard layers already gathered — then verify against the source maps.
