Built on official government data

You've walked through it twice. You can already picture your furniture in the living room. But somewhere in the back of your mind, a quieter question keeps nagging: what's actually around this place?

You're about to spend $420,000 on a house — so you do everything right. You pay for the inspection. The appraisal. The title search.

Home inspection — the structure~$400
Appraisal — the value~$300
Title search — the paperwork~$225
Front Door Scan — the location$49

But here's what not one of those checks: what's in the ground, the water, and the air around the property. The gas station that leaked for years. The industrial site two blocks over. The PFAS in the tap water. A Superfund cleanup a mile away that the seller — legally — never has to tell you about.

⚠️ A single undisclosed contamination issue can cost $10,000 to $100,000 to deal with — or make the home nearly impossible to resell. And in most states, the seller has zero legal obligation to warn you.

That's the exact gap Front Door Scan was built to close. Type any US address and, in about 30 seconds, we scan 30+ federal & state databases within a 10-mile radius — then hand you one plain-English Location Risk Score and a report you can act on.

No consultant. No $2,000 study. No waiting weeks.

Keys handed over in front of a homeBuyer story

She was three days from closing on her dream home. A 30-second scan stopped her.

Sarah had done everything right — inspection, appraisal, title search. Nearly $1,000 in checks. “I thought I'd covered every angle,” she said.

That report cost me forty-nine dollars. It probably saved me four hundred thousand.

Her scan flagged a Superfund cleanup site 1.2 miles away — a detail the seller was under no legal obligation to disclose. She walked away before signing.

One scan, three ways it pays off

Whether the news is bad, mixed, or perfectly clean — you come out ahead either way.

They walked away
Saved the deposit

They walked away

The scan surfaced a Superfund cleanup site barely a mile out — never mentioned in the listing. They pulled the offer before signing and kept their down payment intact.

$6,000 in credits

They renegotiated

A FEMA flood-zone flag became leverage. Their agent turned one line of the report into $6,000 in seller credits at the closing table.

They bought anyway
Clean & confident

They bought anyway

The score came back 91 out of 100. They made their offer that same afternoon — no second-guessing, no what-ifs at 2 a.m.

Sarah M.
Sarah M. · Providence, RI★★★★★

Sarah had already paid for the inspection, the appraisal, and the title search — almost $1,000 in checks — and everything looked perfect. Then she scanned the address. The report flagged a Superfund cleanup site just 1.2 miles away that the listing never mentioned. She walked away before signing, and avoided what could have been a $400,000 mistake.

James T. · Austin, TX★★★★★

James almost skipped the scan. He's glad he didn't. It flagged flood risk on his address — and his agent turned that single finding into $6,000 in seller credits at closing. A $49 report that paid for itself sixty times over.

✔ Verified buyer · Jul 8, 2026
Emily R.
Emily R. · Columbus, OH★★★★★

As a first-time buyer, Emily had no idea what she was supposed to check for. The report walked her through it in plain English — exactly what mattered for her address — before she ever made an offer. For the first time, she felt like she wasn't buying blind.

We were SO close to making an offer. The scan flagged an old dry-cleaner site two blocks away — solvent contamination. Our agent had no idea. Please do this before you sign anything.

A $49 report saved me from a radon + flood surprise. I used it to get the seller to drop the price. Paid for itself a thousand times over.

Honestly skeptical at first. Took 30 seconds, no account, and it emailed me the PDF. Report came back clean and I finally slept the night before closing.

This isn't rare. It's documented.

100%
Guarantee

The “Peace-of-Mind” Guarantee

Run your scan, read your report, and if it ever misses a major documented federal hazard within your radius, we'll refund every penny — and you keep the report. You risk nothing.


Questions buyers ask us:

+ Why is it only $49 when it checks 30+ databases?

Because software does the work, not a consultant. Hiring an environmental firm to pull these same public records costs $500–$2,000 and takes days. We run the lookups in 30 seconds, so we charge a fraction of that.

+ What if my Location Risk Score comes back clean?

Then you make your offer with total confidence — and a dated report you can hand to your lender, agent and family. Confirming a home is clean is exactly what the $49 buys you.

+ Isn't this just a home inspection?

No — it's the half your inspection skips. Your inspector checks the structure inside the walls. We check the land, water and air outside them. Neither replaces the other.

+ Do I need an account or a download?

Neither. Type any US address and read your report on screen in about 30 seconds. A PDF copy is emailed to you automatically.

+ How do I know the data is real?

Every finding is pulled from public federal and state sources — EPA, FEMA, NOAA, USGS and CDC — and your report cites exactly which records were checked, so you can verify any result yourself.

+ What if I already made an offer?

Scan anyway. If the report surfaces a documented hazard, buyers routinely use it to renegotiate price, demand seller credits, or walk away during their due-diligence window.

+ What if I'm not satisfied?

You're covered by our 100% money-back guarantee. If the report ever misses a major documented federal hazard within your radius, we refund every penny — and you keep the report.


Know before you buy — not after.

Picture closing day: you sign knowing exactly what you're buying into. Screen any US address in 30 seconds — no account required.

You have two choices. Sign in the dark and hope for the best — or spend 30 seconds and know. Six months from now, you'll be glad you checked.

P.S. — The inspection tells you about the roof and the pipes. It will never tell you about the contamination three streets over or the flood line that quietly doubles your insurance. Know it before you sign. Scan your address now →
