GroundRules
Batch Property Screening

Screen properties before you spend on deeper due diligence.

GroundRules helps professionals decide which properties deserve more time — and which need verification before relying on public records.

How batch screening works.

01

Submit 5–20 addresses

Paste a batch of LA properties into the screening tool. No account required for your first screen.

02

GroundRules checks the public record

Source-backed facts from assessor data, GIS parcels, zoning, hazard layers, and jurisdiction records are surfaced for each address.

03

Properties are sorted by outcome

Clean, risky, missing-source, or verification-needed properties are distinguished so you can triage the batch quickly.

04

Escalate only what deserves it

Order a $149 human-reviewed packet for the addresses with contradictions, hazard flags, or jurisdiction ambiguity.

Built for professionals who screen multiple properties.

If you regularly review properties before committing time and money, batch screening is designed for your workflow.

Investor-friendly agents

Screen a short list before accepting a listing or making an offer. Quickly flag addresses with contradictions or hazard layers.

Small infill investors & flippers

Compare multiple addresses in a single pass before spending on site visits, title searches, or professional consultations.

Small builders & contractors

Qualify leads before quoting. Know which properties have unresolved source questions before committing to site visits.

Architects & designers

Identify property-level signals — zoning, overlay, parcel match — before taking on a new engagement.
