About 81% of this lot sits in a mapped flood hazard area, wetland or 50-foot stream buffer, and the stream buffer falls under the Jordan Lake rules. Roughly 0.73 of 3.75 acres are outside all of them. The nearest mapped road is more than 400 feet away.
From a real report built on public records.What the report checks
- FEMA flood hazard areas, including floodway, measured as a share of the lot
- Mapped wetlands from the National Wetlands Inventory
- Mapped streams, the share of the lot within 50 feet of them, and whether Neuse, Tar-Pamlico or Jordan Lake buffer rules apply
- Federal critical habitat for protected species
- USDA soil ratings for a septic system
- Road access: how far the nearest mapped road is, and which road
- Whether the lot sits inside a public water system's service area
- Whether the recorded acreage matches the mapped lot
- How many acres sit outside every mapped constraint
- A short list of what to confirm with that county: zoning, septic permits on file, sewer and tax deferral

Questions
What do I enter at checkout?
The county name and the parcel number from the listing, tax bill or county property lookup. Parcel numbers repeat between counties, so the county matters.
How fast do I get it?
Usually within a few minutes of checkout, by email.
Is this a survey or a perc test?
No. It summarizes public records and does not replace a survey, a soil evaluation for septic, an appraisal or legal advice. It tells you what to ask about before you pay for those.
What if something is wrong?
Reply to the report email and you get your money back.
