A note on coverage

Government open-data feeds are not perfectly complete or perfectly current. We show exactly when each source was last checked, and where a record is missing, RentPup says so directly, rather than guessing or filling in a false all-clear. If your property's status looks wrong, it usually means the City's or County's own record hasn't caught up yet; we recommend confirming directly with them for anything time-sensitive.
