✓ Checked property by property, city by city

Find out what your rentals are actually required to do.

Tell StreamNavigator where your rental properties are. StreamNavigator determines the licensing, inspection, lead, notice, and permit rules that apply to you, and turns them into specific action items — each one naming the office that can confirm it.

How it works

From your properties to a checklist per property.

1

Enter each property

City and state, the year it was built, and whatever else you know — when the lease ends, whether you are registered, how the deposit is held. Every answer switches on another check.

2

Make a One-Time Payment

One charge, not a subscription.

3

StreamNavigator checks each property against its own jurisdiction

Registration, inspection, lead paint, lease documents, deposits, notice windows and permits — run one property at a time against a held reference set, not summarised out of a paragraph.

4

Get a checklist per property — then a reminder before each date

Every item says what to do, which office confirms it, and whether we are stating it or flagging it as worth checking first. Where you gave a renewal or lease date, we email you before it arrives.

What we check

Ten checks, run against every property you enter.

Each one is decided before any writing happens, by matching your answers against a held reference set — so the same property produces the same finding every time.

01Registration and licensingDoes your city or state require a rental to be registered or licensed, and does this one hold it?
02Registration renewalCounted from the expiry date you give: lapsed, due inside ninety days, or clear.
03Federal lead disclosurePre-1978 housing carries a federal disclosure duty at every lease. Do you hold the signed copy?
04A child under six in an older unitThe fact pattern several states write specific duties around, over and above disclosure.
05State lead certificationSome states require an inspection or certificate for pre-1978 rentals. We name which, and who issues it.
06Periodic inspection programmesCities that inspect on a cycle rather than on complaint — so the visit is not a surprise.
07Documents that must go with the leaseWhere a city requires a summary or certificate attached to every lease and every renewal.
08How the security deposit is heldDeposits sitting in a personal account, in states that require them held separately.
09Notice window before a lease endsCounted from your own lease end date, so you know whether the decision is due this week.
10Permits for planned workRuns when you tell us about work coming up, including the lead-safe certification question on older buildings.
Checked and fine Likely — confirm first Appears unmet

Every finding carries one of those three, and the write-up is not allowed to turn one into another.

Coverage

Where we hold a reference entry — and where we don't.

A short report on an uncovered city would read like a clean one. So the report names the gap instead.

Jurisdictions in the reference set today

These are the places where the registration and inspection checks run against something we hold, rather than telling you to go and ask. A property anywhere else still gets the federal lead checks, the deposit check, the lease-notice arithmetic and the permit check — plus a finding that names your city and says exactly what we could not look up for it.

Baltimore · Boston · Cambridge · Chicago · Cleveland · Denver · Detroit · Fort Lauderdale · Kansas City · Los Angeles · Miami · Minneapolis · New Orleans · New York · Philadelphia · Phoenix · Portland · Saint Paul · San Francisco · Seattle · Washington DC · plus statewide entries for AZ, NJ, MA, MD, RI, NY, FL and CT, and the federal lead rules everywhere.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

No, and that is deliberate. Fees, renewal dates, ordinance numbers and exact notice periods change, vary by unit count, and are the numbers most worth getting right. We do not hold them, so we never print one — a wrong figure in a compliance report is worse for you than no figure at all. What every finding does carry is the office that can give you the exact answer, so the call takes five minutes instead of an afternoon.
Yes, for the dates you give us — and only those. Enter a registration expiry and we email you 45 days before it; enter a lease end date and we email you 75 days before, which is inside the window where the renew-or-not decision has to be made rather than deferred. We do not watch for rule changes and do not claim to: nothing here monitors a city ordinance. Each reminder carries the countdown on your own date and a link back to your report — never a notice period or a fee, for the same reason the report never prints one.
You still get the federal lead checks, the deposit check, the notice-window arithmetic on your own lease dates and the permit check — plus a finding that names your city, says plainly that we hold no registration entry for it, and gives you the one question to ask your local housing office. What you will never get is silence dressed up as a clean result. The covered list is above, and extending it is the first thing we add to.
Yes, and each one is checked and written up separately rather than merged into a single narrative. That matters more than it sounds: a portfolio spread across two states cannot run on one lease template, and the report says so where it applies to you.
Neither. It tells you which requirements apply to your specific properties and who to confirm each one with, which is the part self-managing landlords usually have no good way to find out. It is not legal advice, and where a finding involves real exposure — lead hazards, a deposit dispute, an eviction — the report says to take it to an attorney rather than pretending otherwise.
Your refund is queued automatically — you do not need to ask for it — and we are alerted at the same moment. If you would rather we ran it again than took the refund, email hello@streamnavigator.ai and we will, at no charge.

Most landlords find out what they were required to do from the notice.

Ten minutes of answers is a cheaper way to find out.
