name: property-assessor
description: Assess a real property from an address or listing URL and produce a decision-grade summary. Use when a user wants fair value, comps, rental or STR viability, carry-cost review, HOA or insurance risk analysis, or offer guidance for a condo, house, townhouse, or similar residential property. Prefer when the task should discover and reconcile multiple listing sources from a street address first, then give a buy/pass/only-below-X verdict.

# Property Assessor
Start from the property address when possible. Treat listing URLs as supporting evidence, not the only source of truth.
## Inputs
Accept any of:
- a street address
- one or more listing URLs
- an address plus user constraints such as investment only, owner-occupant, long-term rental, STR, or distance to a target location
## Core workflow
1. Normalize the address and property type.
2. Discover accessible listing or public-record sources for the same property.
3. Establish a baseline fact set from the best available source.
4. Cross-check the same property on other sites.
5. Pull same-building comps for condos or nearby comps for houses/townhomes.
6. Underwrite carrying cost with taxes, HOA, insurance, and realistic friction.
7. Flag risk drivers before giving a verdict.
8. End with a specific recommendation: `buy`, `pass`, or `only below X`.
## Source order
Prefer this order unless the user says otherwise:
1. Zillow
2. Redfin
3. Realtor.com
4. HAR / Homes.com / brokerage mirror pages
5. county or appraisal pages
Use the `web-automation` skill for rendered pages and anti-bot-heavy sites.
Use `web_search` sparingly to discover alternate URLs, then return to `web-automation` for extraction.
## Minimum data to capture
For the target property, capture when available:
- address
- ask price or last known list price
- property type
- beds / baths
- sqft
- lot size if relevant
- year built
- HOA fee and included services
- taxes
- days on market
- price history
- parking
- waterfront / flood clues
- subdivision / building name when applicable
- same-building or nearby active inventory
## Underwriting rules
Always show a simple carrying-cost view with at least:
- principal and interest if available from the listing
- taxes per month
- HOA per month if applicable
- insurance estimate or note uncertainty
- realistic effective carry range after maintenance, vacancy, and property-specific risk
Treat these as strong caution flags:
- high HOA relative to price or expected rent
- older waterfront or coastal exposure
- unknown reserve / assessment history for condos
- many active units in the same building or micro-area
- stale days on market with weak price action
- no clear rent support
## Output format
Keep the answer concise but decision-grade:
1. Snapshot
2. What I like
3. What I do not like
4. Comp view
5. Underwriting / carry view
6. Risks and diligence items
7. Verdict with fair value range and offer guidance
## Reuse notes
When condos are involved, same-building comps and HOA economics usually matter more than neighborhood averages.
For detailed heuristics and the reusable memo template, read `references/underwriting-rules.md`.

# Property Assessor Underwriting Rules
## Goal
Turn messy property data into a fast investor or buyer decision without pretending precision where the data is weak.
## Practical heuristics
### 1. Use the most comparable comp set first
- For condos: same-building active and sold comps first.
- For houses or townhomes: same subdivision or immediate micro-area first.
- Expand outward only when the close comp set is thin.
### 2. Fixed carrying costs can kill a deal
High HOA, insurance, taxes, or unusual maintenance burden can make a property unattractive even when price-per-sqft looks cheap.
### 3. Waterfront, coastal, older, or unusual properties deserve extra skepticism
Assume elevated insurance, maintenance, and assessment risk until proven otherwise.
### 4. DOM and price cuts are negotiation signals, not automatic value
Long market time helps the buyer, but a stale listing can still be a mediocre deal if the economics are weak.
### 5. Unknowns must stay visible
If reserve studies, bylaws, STR rules, assessment history, lease restrictions, or condition details are missing, list them explicitly as unresolved diligence items.
## Minimum comp stack
For each property, aim to collect:
- target listing facts
- same-building or same-micro-area active listings
- sold listings if available
- nearby similar properties
- rent or lease signals when investment analysis matters
## Carry framework
At minimum, estimate:
- P&I
- taxes monthly
- HOA monthly if applicable
- insurance assumption or uncertainty note
- effective carry range after maintenance / vacancy / property friction
If the listing already provides an estimated payment, use it as the starting point, then explain what it leaves out.
## STR / rental notes
Never assume STR viability from location alone. Confirm or explicitly mark as unknown:
- HOA restrictions
- minimum stay rules
- city or building constraints
- whether the micro-location is truly tourist-driven or just adjacent to something attractive
## Verdict language
Use one of these:
- `Buy` — pricing and risk support action now
- `Pass` — weak economics or too much unresolved risk
- `Only below X` — decent candidate only if bought at a materially lower basis
## Suggested memo template
### Snapshot
- Address
- Source links checked
- Price / type / beds / baths / sqft / HOA / taxes / DOM
### Market read
- Same-building or same-area active inventory
- Nearby active comps
- Any sold signals
### Economics
- Base carry
- Effective carry range
- Rent / STR comments when relevant
### Risk flags
- HOA or fixed-cost burden
- insurance / waterfront / age
- reserves / assessments / restrictions if relevant
- liquidity / DOM
### Recommendation
- Fair value range
- Opening offer
- Ceiling offer
- Final verdict
