RESIDENTIAL GROUND TRUTH

Confirm how a home is lived in, not just where it sits.

Standard bureau headers stop at historic mail drops. SteadyDwell inspects the physical residential structure alongside the household occupying it — eliminating undisclosed vacancy and commercial short-term rental blind spots.

Physical Structure & Unit Classification

Matches roof and lot footprints against county APN rolls, uncovering basement conversions, duplex splits, separate electric meters, and detached accessory dwellings.

Primary Residency vs. Vacant & STR Occupancy

Separates authentic full-time owner or tenant households from unmonitored vacant shells, seasonal retreats, and active nightly vacation-rental listings before losses occur.

Multi-Year Tenure & Post-Bind Drift Radar

Quantifies uninterrupted utility and postal receptor spans at origination, then re-sweeps bound residential books every quarter for sudden disconnects or deed shifts.

PARCEL-TO-THRESHOLD PROTOCOL

Your complete residential verification stack.

Every SteadyDwell file progresses through four auditable stages built for P&C underwriting desks, mortgage collateral reviews, and servicing teams.

01 PARCEL LOCK

APN Binding & Subject Consent

Normalizes the street address to its county Assessor Parcel Number (APN), logs subject verification consent, and locks the asserted occupancy class.

DWELLING VERIFICATION FAQ

Answers for residential underwriters, servicers, and residents.

How does SteadyDwell distinguish a primary home from a seasonal dwelling or short-term rental?
We combine county homestead tax exemptions, continuous versus seasonal utility meter activity, USPS residential mail receptor continuity, active nightly rental marketplace sweeps, and — when needed — a documented exterior/threshold check by a credentialed local inspector.
How do returning applicants or invited residents access their SteadyDwell record?
Visit the SteadyDwell Portal and submit the exact email address and surname linked to your invitation or prior inquiry. Once your file is located, Step 2 allows you to verify parameters and execute electronic consent.
Can SteadyDwell identify unpermitted duplex splits or detached accessory dwelling units (ADUs)?
Yes. By reconciling municipal building/assessor square footage against separate postal unit designators, secondary utility meters, and exterior threshold photography, we surface multi-unit exposures that standard address normalizers miss.
What happens during an on-parcel residential inspection?
Inspections are brief, courteous, and strictly consent-aligned. Badged inspectors remain on public approaches or authorized walkways, verify unit numbering and exterior habitability, and — where occupant confirmation is requested — present identification openly without pretexting.
How can a homeowner or tenant correct an inaccurate dwelling classification?
Residents may request a zero-cost reinvestigation at any time by writing [email protected] or calling (866) 731-9040. We review parcel evidence within 30 days and deliver any corrected report to the commissioning organization. See Dwelling Subject Notice & Dispute Rights.
