Check your building
Type the address of any LA County apartment building with five or more units. You get the public-record facts an underwriter will pull, plus the two numbers most policies get wrong.
What you get
- Year built, unit count and square footage from the County Assessor
- Soft-story retrofit status from the LADBS list, for City of LA addresses
- FEMA flood zone, and whether a lender will require flood coverage
- CAL FIRE and LA County fire hazard severity zone
- Rent regulation: LA RSO, another city's ordinance, or AB 1482
- A replacement cost estimate and a loss of rents estimate
- The four coverage gaps to check on your current policy
Where the Assessor's unit count is missing on a parcel, the tool shows Unknown rather than guessing. Send me the address and I will confirm it by hand.
