Your free property report

Four pages. Your property, in plain language.

  • Your parcel and your city's rules, translated
  • How much of the lot you could build on, and what sizes may fit
  • What it might cost, and what it could do for the property — with sources
  • What to do next, and what only a site visit can settle
  • How people pay for it — equity, a construction loan, rent that helps — with sources

A preliminary estimate from public records — not a guarantee of approval, value or final cost.

How it works

Three steps. The first is the only one you do.

1

Ask

Your address and your goal. Two minutes on your phone, no visit.

2

We look

Zoning, setbacks, slope, flood, utilities — the public record for your parcel, read by people who do this every day.

3

You decide

Your free report within a few hours: what may be possible, what it might cost, what to do next. Or nothing at all.

That's the whole first step.
If something won't fit on your lot, the report says so — and shows what might.

How HousUp works

Free for you. Here's why, and what it is.

Who's behind it

HousUp is operated by HousUp LLC in Everett, Washington. HousUp doesn't build anything and doesn't claim to.

How the report is made

A desk study from public records — parcel data, zoning and development codes, flood maps, mapped critical areas — within a few hours. If the system isn't sure, a person looks first.

Why it's free

The report costs you nothing and carries no obligation. If you ask to go further and sign with a partner builder, that builder pays HousUp a program fee. Any price you're quoted comes from the builder, in writing, before you sign — and you're free to use any contractor.

What it isn't

Not a survey, a permit, an appraisal or a construction price. What a desk study can't see — utilities, easements, trees, soils — is settled on site, before anything is proposed.

The whole disclosure, in plain language →

Questions

Four quick ones.

All of them →

Is this really free?

Yes. No obligation, no sales call. The report is yours whatever you decide.

Who builds it, if I go ahead?

HousUp doesn't build. If you want to go further, HousUp introduces its partner builder for your area — only if you ask. The fixed price and the construction agreement come from that builder, after a site visit and a design, and you're free to use anyone.

What if my lot doesn't have room?

The report says so, plainly, and shows what might work instead — an addition, a conversion, an upgrade.

I'm working with a real estate agent. Does that change anything?

The report is still free, and your agent stays your agent. If your agent sent you, the report goes to you both. Any price still comes from the builder, in writing, and you're free to use any contractor.

Your clients aren’t moving. Your business can still grow.

What could your property become?

Two minutes to ask. A few hours to know. Move up without moving.
