Buying a home is one of the most significant financial decisions in our lifetime. While neighborhood, price, and size are critical, environmental factors - such as power lines, wetlands, noise, natural light and radiation from cell towers - can impact our long-term health and property value. Popular real estate platforms profit from transactions and avoid sharing information that may be critical of a property and jeopardize a sale. PropertyScoop wants to empower you as a home buyer, real estate agent, or investor to get more facts and fewer surprises.

PropertyScoop goes beyond standard listing details by providing critical, unique information about each property — including nearby power lines, wetlands, noise levels, radon risk, crime rates, privacy, natural light, cell tower radiation, falling tree risk, flood and wildfire exposure, neighborhood demographics, and much more.
