The public record, citable, with the source on every line.

Every figure names the dataset it came from and the date it was read, the caveats sit beside the numbers they qualify, and the PDF states what it is and is not — not a consumer report, not a valuation, not the statutory disclosure. A record you can quote, from a service that is careful about what it refuses to say.

The questions it answers

What exactly does each source say?
How current is each figure?
Can I cite this in a filing?
What is deliberately excluded, and why?
Where does the city publish this?
Is this a consumer report?

The sections that earn their keep

Permits, and the disclosuresThe permit history on the parcel, and every point-of-sale Certificate of Disclosure filed against it — what the city recorded about the building at each transfer.

Complaints and violationsAllegations and findings, counted separately and dated — with abatement status.

What Cleveland requires hereWhether the rental registration is current and for how many units, whether a lead-safe certificate is in force and when it expires, whether the city holds the structure condemned, and every point-of-sale Certificate of Disclosure filed against the parcel. No record is reported as no record, never as compliance.

Every caveatThe report's refusals are documented, which is what makes the rest of it quotable.

Nothing here needs a compliance read. The report contains no scores, grades or rankings — no safety rating, no school grade, no neighborhood letter. Those are the classic proxies for what the Fair Housing Act protects, and this product refuses them by design: you get counts, comparisons and sources. It names no person, and it is not a consumer report.

How to read a Cleveland reportWhat the city publishes, what each comparison claims, and the three places a Cleveland report is quieter than a San Francisco one.What a Cleveland condemnation actually meansTwo thousand structures condemned since 2024, two thirds of them still open. What the notice says, what it does not, and why the garage counts separately.Cleveland's rental registration, and what a failure to register tells youEvery rental must be registered. Nine hundred were cited for not being, and four in five of those citations are still open.Reading vacancy in ClevelandSixteen thousand vacancy reports, and the five neighbourhoods that produce most of them are the same five that lead on condemnation.
