Real Estate Portal USA has built a national web-based mapping site that serves specific markets such as real estate, GIS and government. What began as a local site built to cross Ohio’s jurisdictions has grown to cover tens of millions of parcels in hundreds of U.S. counties. Our data architecture solves the problems associated with non-standardized parcel data between counties, regions and states. We import and derive many important attributes from different counties into a unified database to allow analysis at the regional level. Our service presents any user the ability to search on a neighborhood to a national scale.
Through our powerful query tool, we customize and present enriched, cleaned data suitable for multi-county analysis. Any search result links to a variety of fully integrated web-based mapping systems so, Google StreetView or MS Live Maps oblique view, are just a click away. Also, a click on a result will jump to a pre-queried county auditor's page for full parcel detail. Additional features such as environmental (flood zones, wetlands and soils) and demographic (census blocks and groups) are just a few of the resources included in the mapping system.
