Property record reports for the deadline you are working to

Look up what the public record holds on one property, before a tax appeal window, an attorney review or a feasibility period closes. Cook County assessments and appeal evidence, City of Chicago building permits and violations, Miami-Dade condo reserves and milestone inspections, and well, septic and flood records for Illinois land. Every report begins with a free check on this site.

One parcel base for every Property report. Tax Appeal and Permit History share the same Cook County parcel index (PIN), so a property you check for one is already matched for the other. See the ten datasets.

Free first

Five free property lookups, before any report is offered

Each one answers its question in full on this site. Nothing is held back to make a paid report look better, and two of them have no paid report behind them at all.

The five free tools above are listed first for a reason: if one of them answers your question, you are done. A report is offered only where the free answer stops short of what the deadline needs, and each report page says exactly where that line falls.
