Scan the Block · for investor

Underwrite the block, not the brochure.

The pro forma says what the seller hopes; the city's records say what has happened. What the county values each parcel at and what the ones around it actually sold for — Ohio discloses the price — beside the code-enforcement cases the city holds open, the permits filed on the building, and whether anything on the block has been ordered boarded up.

The questions it answers

What is allowed on this parcel?
Which obligations transfer with it?
What will the reassessment be?
Is this building being emptied?
What is approved next door?
Which hazard zones apply here?

The sections that earn their keep

Buildings boarded up nearbyOrders the city issued to barricade a building — its own record that somebody was sent to close one, rather than a complaint about it.

What is coming nearbyThe approved pipeline within your radius, in net units, before it is cranes.

What changed hands nearbyWhich parcels traded and when, from the roll — with the reassessment labeled for what it is.

Reported crime, both systemsOffences on the STARS categories the department adopted in June 2024, and the system it replaced counted separately — two vocabularies, never added together.

Code enforcement on the blockCases the city opened around the address, under its own categories, against the citywide rate.
