House hunting, I kept finding listings that sat for months with no obvious reason. Pulling permit records manually, I found a pattern: open violations, expired permits, abandoned construction, but none of it in the listing. RELookup shows building permits and code violations for any US address. 302 cities covered, ~40% of US population. No account required. The public record lookup that should exist but doesn't.

Hey PH Readers!
I spent a year house hunting in the Bay Area and kept finding listings that had been sitting for months with no explanation. Eventually I started pulling permit records manually and noticed a pattern.
Two real SF examples:
* 332 Bradford St — excavation abandoned mid-construction, open
violations, neighbor complaint citing rain undermining an
adjacent foundation
* 360 Laidley St — 9 open notices of violation, retaining wall
collapsed onto sidewalk, structural problems since 2016
None of it in the listing. RELookup exists so you don't have to
dig through city portals yourself.
No account, no paywall. Would love to know which cities or
features matter most to you.
