Commercial real estate

Four counties of property records, inside the chat window.

Tampa metro coverage: 1.73 million parcels, 295,255 commercial, across four counties, from county appraiser record

We built this for commercial real estate brokers working the Tampa Bay market. A broker used to answer one question (who owns this building, what did it last sell for, what is it worth) by opening the county appraiser website, searching a parcel, copying figures into a spreadsheet, then doing it again for every comparable. We connected those records to Claude, the assistant the broker already uses. Now they ask, and the answer comes back with the parcel, the owner, the sale history and the comparables already assembled.

The connector is a remote MCP server: the piece that lets an assistant read one specific set of records instead of guessing. Claude knows nothing about your county property roll on its own. Through the connector, every figure comes from the county file and names that file and its date. It covers Hillsborough, Pinellas, Pasco and Polk: 1,730,745 parcels, 295,255 of them commercial, as measured in September 2026. It is part of CRE Harness, the property research and BOV system we build for brokerage teams.

There is no API key to paste. The broker adds the connector in Claude and signs in through a browser. Because the connection knows who is asking, it can save a contact, a deal or a finished document as that person, not only read records.

It answers the two questions a broker actually has.

Ownership and debt are the whole job. Everything else is context around them.

Who do I call about this building?

Ownership runs from the LLC on the deed, through the Florida corporate registry and SEC Form D filings, to the people behind it, with everything else they own across the four counties and what they paid for it. Depending on the county, roughly seven to eight in ten commercial owner entities match a registered company with named officers.

What is the debt, and when is it due?

In Hillsborough, recorded mortgages, who wrote them, lender league tables and the maturities coming up. In all four counties, SBA 504 loans and securitized (CMBS) loans filed with the SEC. The other three county clerks do not offer a free mortgage index, so the connector says when debt is not on file rather than letting a building look unencumbered.

And it produces the document at the end.

Research is only worth having if it becomes something a broker can send.

Comparables chosen properly

The valuation tool applies the screens a careful analyst would: the subject building’s own use type, a size band either side, market sales only, portfolio deeds removed, and sales far from assessed value set aside. It reports what it excluded and why, so the set can be checked. Where in the range the building sits is still the broker’s call: condition, tenancy and rents are not in any public record.

In the firm’s own brand

A broker opinion of value (BOV) comes out as a finished PDF in the firm’s logo, colors and typefaces, read from its own website, and signed with the broker’s own contact card. One request, one document ready to review and send.

Your team is retyping something today.

If the answer already sits in a public system and somebody is copying it across by hand, that is a connector waiting to be built. We find them, build them, and hand them over.
