About PropertySiteCheck

Making environmental due diligence accessible to everyone

PropertySiteCheck was built to solve a simple but expensive problem: Phase I Environmental Site Assessments cost $3,000–$7,000 and take weeks, while the underlying environmental data is scattered across dozens of government databases that are free but impractical to search on your own.

Our Mission

We believe every property transaction should start with a basic environmental screen — not just the ones with six-figure budgets. By aggregating 22 federal, state, and regional environmental databases into a single, clear report, we give buyers, agents, lenders, sellers, and investors the information they need to make informed decisions.

The Problem We Solve

  • Cost barrier: Phase I ESAs cost $3,000–$7,000, putting them out of reach for most residential and small commercial transactions.
  • Time delay: Traditional assessments take 4–6 weeks, often blowing through transaction deadlines.
  • Data fragmentation: Environmental records are scattered across 7+ agencies, each with different search interfaces and formats.
  • Information gap: Most buyers proceed without any environmental review, exposing themselves to hidden liabilities.

How PropertySiteCheck Works

We built a screening tool, not a replacement for a Phase I ESA. We search the same 22 regulatory databases that environmental professionals review — from leaking underground storage tanks and Superfund sites to flood zones and radon data — and report what we find in plain language. Each database is reported as Flagged or Clear, with facility details, distances, and recommendations for any findings.

For Buyers & Investors

Screen any Michigan address in under 60 seconds. Know what environmental databases show about a property before you commit — without spending $3,000+ on a Phase I ESA.

For Real Estate Agents

Add environmental due diligence to your service offering. Share PropertySiteCheck reports to build trust and differentiate your practice — faster and cheaper than a Phase I.

For Lenders

Screen collateral properties for environmental indicators during underwriting. Flag potential concerns early in the loan process before committing to a full Phase I.

For Sellers & Landowners

Understand what environmental databases show about your property before listing. No surprises during buyer due diligence — especially for land splits or properties with unknown history.

Built on Trusted Data

All our data comes directly from federal, state, and regional agencies. We don't create or interpret environmental data — we organize it, screen it against your property, and report what we find.
