What's the difference between the Snapshot and the Report?
The free Snapshot is a brief preview — it confirms whether your property has compliance items worth addressing, shows the HauScore tier band (Pass/Review/Fail), and counts the open items found. The full MyHausFax™ Report, included with every Permit Solutions Services engagement, contains your exact HauScore, line-by-line breakdown across all five methodology categories, citable source records, and the resolution path for each issue.
Is the Snapshot really free?
Yes. The MyHausFax Snapshot is free for any homeowner who calls or submits an address — no obligation to engage further, no credit card. The full MyHausFax Report (with exact HauScore and line-item detail) is delivered as part of an engagement, not as a free standalone deliverable.
Who sees my information?
Access is limited to the specialist preparing your Snapshot and authorized Permit Solutions Services personnel. Your information is used to research your property's public records and to communicate with you about the matter. See our Privacy Policy for the full detail on how information is collected, stored, and shared.
What if my HauScore tier is low?
A low tier means there are documented issues — and almost all of them are resolvable. The Snapshot tells you the tier and the count of open items; the full Report (with engagement) details every issue and the resolution path. At engagement closeout you receive a MyHausFax™ Final Report showing your improved HauScore before-and-after.
Do I have to hire Permit Solutions Services?
No. The Snapshot is free regardless. If you decide to investigate further on your own or hire another firm, the Snapshot still tells you whether your property has issues worth investigating.
How is the HauScore calculated?
Five weighted categories scoring 0 to 100: Title & Legal Health (30%), Code Compliance (25%), Physical & Environmental Risk (20%), Financial Health (15%), Permit & Construction Integrity (10%). The methodology is deterministic — same property, same data, same number — and every point traces to a public government dataset.
What's the difference between MyHausFax™ and HauScore™?
MyHausFax is the report family — the Snapshot, the Report, the Final Report. HauScore is the 0-to-100 number printed on the cover of the full Report. The Snapshot shows the HauScore tier band; the Report shows the exact score.
How long does it take?
One business day for the Snapshot. The full MyHausFax Report is produced as part of an engagement (typically within the first week).
Do you serve Broward as well as Miami-Dade?
Yes. We pull from Broward equivalents of the Miami-Dade data sources for Broward properties. The methodology is the same.
