What it can't tell you

  • It doesn't look at the whole parcel, its boundaries, title, easements, zoning or permits.
  • It isn't a survey, appraisal, elevation certificate, soil or perc test, or Phase I environmental site assessment.
  • It can't see local distribution power lines, driveways, legal access, wells or mineral rights.
  • Maps lag behind the ground, and distances are straight-line, not driving distance.

Common questions

Can I check a specific property in Miami-Dade County?

Yes. Enter the address or drop a pin anywhere in Miami-Dade County. The free preview shows which checks returned data at that exact point, and the full report costs $29 (initial test price).

What flood zone is land in Miami-Dade County?

It depends on the exact spot. At our sample point near the middle of the county, FEMA's flood map returned zone X. A parcel a few hundred feet away can be in a different zone, so check your own pin.

Is this a survey or title search?

No. It is a preliminary screen of mapped public data at one point, not a survey, title search, appraisal, perc test or Phase I environmental site assessment.
