Official sources
Go to the agency responsible.
Rules and accounts change. These links open the official source.
Safety comes first.
Leave immediate fire, gas, electrical, structural, sewage, flooding, mold, or collapse danger and call 911 or the relevant utility. A web tool cannot determine whether a building is safe.
Common questions
Clear answers to get started.
Confirm dates, rights, and requirements with the responsible agency or qualified professional.
What should I do first?
Start with “Keep people away from possible collapse” and keep the source, date, and responsible person.
What if I do not know the right term?
Choose the closest everyday statement in the tool. Describe what you see and the document you have; you do not need to diagnose the problem.
Which records matter?
For foundation problem help, gather official documents, current photos, dates, names, amounts, receipts, and related communication.
Does this tool decide my rights or best option?
No. It organizes facts and questions. The responsible agency, court, contract, policy, or qualified professional controls the outcome.
When is it urgent?
When there is danger, a notice, hearing, sale, lawsuit, expiration, active loss, or a date you have not confirmed. Use the actual document as the clock.
Next step
Triage my foundation concern. One fact and one date at a time.
Use the free tool first. If you later want to discuss selling the property in its current condition, that conversation is optional and separate.
