PRE-LITIGATION RESOLUTION
Proactive compliance automation
PinPoint Property Compliance cross-references property rolls, corporate filings, and rental activity to flag at-risk, non-owner-occupied properties. By unmasking true corporate decision-makers early, we drive voluntary resolution—protecting tax bases and maintaining neighborhoods before physical issues begin.
Instant estimate from public Census data. Your audit adds property records and Secretary of State corporate filings.
Sample: Brevard County, FL · Enter your city or county above to see your own numbers.
Instant estimates come from public Census data and are rough by design: a typical rate applied to a Census count. Your free audit replaces them with exact counts.
Rough estimates based on public Census data and typical rates. Actual numbers can only be determined through a full analysis.
Sources: ACS 5-year 2020-2024; County Business Patterns 2023; Nonemployer Statistics 2024. Community boundaries: Census Gazetteer 2026.
Every lead comes with its sources and dates. Your officials decide each case; PinPoint never revokes an exemption or issues a penalty.
Already running a program?
Whether you run it in-house or through a vendor, let us audit your existing homestead, business license, rental, foreclosure or vacant property program. We compare what is registered against what is out there and show you where improvements could be realized.

For counties
State law already provides the remedy for improper exemptions; in Florida, for example, up to 10 years of back taxes plus penalties and interest. PinPoint assembles the evidence so your assessor can act on it.
For cities
Use the business license or tax you already have to bring unregistered businesses and short-term rentals into compliance, without replacing your system.
Estimated lost revenue
Run an impact check above to see a rough estimate for your community. Actual numbers can only be determined through a full analysis.
Also available: short-term and long-term rental registration.
For both counties and cities
One neglected property affects the whole block. The longer it sits empty, the more it costs your community.
Neglected properties pull down the value of the homes around them, shrinking the tax base, while the taxes and fees owed on the property itself often go unpaid.
About 0.9%
lower value for each single-family home within ⅛ mile of a foreclosure. In Atlanta, vacant and blighted properties were estimated to cost up to $2.7M a year in property tax.
Immergluck & Smith (2006), via Pew (2007); Immergluck, Center for Community Progress (2015)
Empty buildings invite break-ins, squatting, illegal dumping and fire, putting neighbors and first responders at risk.
15%+
rise in violent crime within 250 feet once a home became vacant (Pittsburgh). Fires in vacant buildings averaged about 31,000 a year nationally, injuring about 4,500 firefighters.
Cui (2010), cited by Center for Community Progress; NFPA, 2003–2006 annual averages
Overgrown yards, open doors and unsafe structures consume staff time, and the owner responsible is often hard to find.
$1.7M–$3M
a year in Atlanta city services (code enforcement, police, fire) for vacant and blighted properties. Chicago spent about $875,000 to board up 627 properties in one year.
Immergluck, Center for Community Progress (2015); U.S. GAO-12-34 (2011)
Registration fees are paid by lenders and owners, not residents.
The impact: a foreclosure can leave a home empty for months while ownership is unclear and no one maintains it.
What PinPoint does
The impact: a vacant property with an absent or unknown owner can deteriorate for years before anyone is held responsible.
