Identity and parcel
Why this matters: Matching this listing to its own HCAD parcel is what lets every other section below be about one physical property, not just one listing text.
Not yet computed. When the fact builder has run for this property this section will show the HCAD account, legal description, subdivision and how this listing was matched to a parcel, each value with its source and date. Some of it is VOW-registrant content.
Listing status and dates
Why this matters: How long a listing has sat, and whether it has been relisted, tells you how much room there is to negotiate before you write a number.
Not yet computed. When the fact builder has run for this property this section will show listing status, the dates on the listing, and days on market, each value with its source and date. Some of it is VOW-registrant content.
Price (1)
Why this matters: The asking price is a starting point for your own numbers, not the number you should assume you will actually pay.

Size, lot and year built (2)
Why this matters: The listing's size and the HCAD record often disagree; use both, not whichever one is more convenient.

Taxes and appraisal district (1)
Why this matters: Property tax is usually the biggest fixed monthly cost after the mortgage, and Harris County stacks several taxing jurisdictions whose rates change every year — this is exactly the kind of Houston-only number a national rule of thumb gets wrong (research/R1-landlords-investors.md).
- Estimate note
- This is the tax bill without any current-owner exemption: exemptions (homestead, over-65, disability, ...) belong to the current owner and do not transfer on a sale, so a buyer should not assume they will carry the seller's exemption-based estimate forward.

HOA
Why this matters: An HOA fee is a fixed monthly cost like tax and insurance; the listing's figure is what to start from, not what to assume is final — confirm it with the association before you rely on it.
Not yet computed. When the fact builder has run for this property this section will show the association fee normalised to a monthly figure, what it includes, and any other mandatory fee, each value with its source and date. Some of it is VOW-registrant content.
Rent evidence
Why this matters: New investors most often get the local rent number wrong; this is the same evidence experienced landlords use in place of a national average (research/R1-landlords-investors.md).
Not yet computed. When the fact builder has run for this property this section will show asking and reported leased rents for this ZIP and bed count, each value with its source and date. Some of it is VOW-registrant content.
Comparable sales
Why this matters: Comparable sales, not the list price, are what tell you whether this property is priced like the homes actually selling nearby.
Not yet computed. When the fact builder has run for this property this section will show closed sales selected by the stated rule, with distance, date and sold price, each value with its source and date. Some of it is VOW-registrant content.
Listing history at this property
Why this matters: A property that has already been relisted or cut in price before is telling you something before you even make an offer.
Not yet computed. When the fact builder has run for this property this section will show the listings recorded at this property, with sold and leased events, each value with its source and date. Some of it is VOW-registrant content.
Schools (2)
Why this matters: Attendance zones affect resale and tenant demand alike, even for a property you plan to rent out rather than live in.

Flood
Why this matters: Flood zone drives your insurance cost directly, and Houston insurance has been rising sharply — getting this wrong breaks the whole monthly-cost number (research/R1-landlords-investors.md).
Not yet computed. When the fact builder has run for this property this section will show the FEMA flood zone at the mapped point, each value with its source and date. Some of it is VOW-registrant content.
Seller display permissions
Why this matters: This explains what the seller allowed to be shown on the internet; it does not change any of the numbers above.
Not yet computed. When the fact builder has run for this property this section will show what the seller has allowed to be shown on the internet for this listing, each value with its source and date. Some of it is VOW-registrant content.
