FAQ Property Explorer - Can't Find Address?

There are several reasons why we may not render a dynamic valuation report.

1. Address Entry: Because the town name of a specific property may change as a result of rezoning or annexation, we rely heavily on zip codes when locating your property in our database.
   
   Below are some useful tips for property search in Property Explorer.

   • Type the address. Often times the property will appear in our suggestion list under a different town name. If you’ve copied and pasted your address, the auto-suggestion may not populate. You can ensure that you’re selecting the correct property by referencing the zip code.
     
     
   • Remove abbreviations. In some instances, a street type may not be recognized by our database when an abbreviation is used, try typing the full name (example: court vs ct.)
     
     
2. Assessment Data: HouseCanary aggregates data from public country assessment data to understand attributes such as beds, baths, and square footage. If public records lacks data for a subject properties, we cannot generate a report. While we have the highest coverage with Single Family Detached buildings, the presence of assessment record may allow us to show other property types.
   
   
3. Property Type: Please note that at this time we primarily support Single Family Detached properties. We do not focus on multi-family, empty lots or commercial properties.
   
   
4. We want to provide a comprehensive Property Explorer: We strive to show you a comprehensive report, and if we do not have a Automated Valuation Model (AVM) for a subject property, we will not build you a report. Additionally, if we do not believe a Report provides complete information and lacks crucial information, we will again choose to not show you a report.
