Parcel brief · live preview

Every layer answers separately.

Illustrative result. A live product would resolve the actual parcel and current municipal sources before answering.

Why the stack matters

Less anxiety. More visible progress.

The competitors prove the job exists. LotLight improves the moment between address and decision: every rule layer stays separately visible, sources stay attached, and the unknowns are named instead of averaged away.

SHEET 01

Answer first, map second

The first screen shows a plain-language feasibility signal instead of a waitlist or a statewide directory dump.

SHEET 02

Rule layers stay visible

State rights, local dimensional rules, overlays, transit proximity, and wastewater questions never collapse into one false yes/no.

SHEET 03

Freshness is part of the answer

Every claim shows its source, retrieval date, and whether the town has newer material requiring review.

Registration order

One complete path from address to next action.
