Overview

Why ElasticParcel

A statewide New Jersey property index built for the people who actually research NJ parcels — investors, title agents, tax appeal attorneys, planners. Free for the public surface; paid for the fields professionals actually pay to know.

What it is

Every parcel in New Jersey, in one place — ~3 million records across all 21 counties — with the data sources behind property research wired together: MOD-IV tax rolls, SR1A sales, NJGIN parcel polygons, county-clerk deed indexes, the DCA housing registry, and an automated valuation model on top. Searchable by address, owner, block/lot, county, municipality, ZIP, property class, unit count, and within-N-miles of any anchor.

The map shows every parcel with Zillow-style price pills when a sales filter is on. Click any property for its full record: sales history, deeds, modeled value, neighbors, block siblings, bordering parcels, and a built-in 200-ft zoning notice tool.

Three things that are unusually well done

Live deed-PDF retrieval, per county. Most property-data products surface deed metadata from aggregator feeds that lag the recorder by days or weeks. ElasticParcel integrates with each NJ clerk's portal directly and pulls the actual recorded PDF on demand. 12+ counties wired so far, with the rest in progress. That's expensive to maintain (every county runs a different stack — Acclaim, PRESS, NewVision, Cumberland's CountyFusion, etc.) but it's why a title search returns a real document, not a stale index entry.
Anonymous browsing is substantive. Address, property class, year built, sale dates, assessed value, AVM estimate, parcel geometry, neighbors, block context — all visible without an account. The paid tier is reserved for the fields professionals actually pay to know: owner names, full DCA contact info, bulk export. Casual research stays free; real work stays gated.
Built for NJ specifically. Statewide MOD-IV ingest with vintage filtering so you don't see ghost rows from historical reassessments, DCA housing-registry integration for 3+ unit buildings, SR1A sales feed weekly, NJGIN parcel polygons, the 200-ft zoning notice tool. National products treat NJ as one of fifty states; this is the whole product.

Who it's for

NJ-focused investors and acquisitions teams who want to see every parcel an LLC owns, find recent sales in a specific muni, or pull an owner's mailing address to send a postcard.
NJ title agents who need the actual recorded deed PDF in seconds — not a 24-hour wait on a title order.
NJ tax-appeal attorneys who want comparable assessed values within a block and a 200-ft notice list ready to print for filing.
NJ planners and zoning consultants who need the same 200-ft notice tool the assessor produces — without calling the assessor.
Anyone curious about a New Jersey property — neighbors, prospective buyers, journalists, students. The public surface is meaningful by itself, no signup required.

What it costs

The public surface is free. The paid tier (Pro) unlocks owner names, owner mailing addresses, and DCA contact info — the fields investors and title professionals subscribe for. Bulk CSV export for ≤1000-row results is part of the same tier.
