Property details
MAIA's property details take a parcel, a building, or a place and return who uses it. They answer two questions for every row, whether the owner occupies the property and who the tenants are, each with its reasoning and sources.
What it answers#
Ownership records name who owns a building. They do not say who is inside it. That changes who you call and what you offer them.
Use property details when you dispatch a run, to add a column that answers one of two questions.
| Detail | The question it answers | Returns |
|---|---|---|
| Owner occupancy | The question it answersDoes the owner use the property? | ReturnsYes or no, with reasoning |
| Tenant info | The question it answersWho occupies it, and on what terms? | ReturnsA list of tenants with lease details |
What is owed on a property is a separate enrichment. See Mortgages and liens.
You ask
Find owner-occupied, for-profit buildings with public ESG commitments and strong solar incentives.
Note
Each row spends credits. Filter the table first, or run the first ten rows and read them before you run the rest. See Run an enrichment.
Owner occupancy#
A property is owner-occupied when its owner is one of the users of the building.
| Property | Owner-occupied when |
|---|---|
| Residential | Owner-occupied whenThe owner lives there as a primary residence |
| Commercial or industrial | Owner-occupied whenThe owner, or a company under the same control, runs its own business there |
| Mixed use | Owner-occupied whenThe owner uses part of the building and leases the rest |
The cell reads yes, no, or Unavailable. Unavailable is not a no. It means MAIA could not support either answer.
MAIA researches each row in three steps.
- It gathers the parcel, building, and place records for the row's location.
- It compares the owner with the occupant: the mailing address against the property address, the names, and the type of entity.
- If the records do not show whether owner and occupant are the same, it searches the web.
The reasoning names the evidence, such as a matching company name and the absence of leasing language.
Note
Owner occupancy runs on layers built from MAIA's core parcel, building, or place data. It does not run on a layer you uploaded.
Tenant info#
MAIA researches the public web for the current occupants and returns every tenant it finds, one entry each.
| Field | What it holds |
|---|---|
| Tenant | What it holdsThe legal name or the primary occupant |
| Lease dates | What it holdsStart and end of the current term |
| Lease length | What it holdsWorked out from the lease dates |
| Months remaining | What it holdsWorked out from the lease dates |
| In-place rent | What it holdsBase rent per square foot, per year |
| Expense structure | What it holdsTriple net, modified gross, full service gross, industrial gross, or other |
| Escalation | What it holdsFixed percent, CPI, hybrid, or none |
| Occupancy status | What it holdsLeased, vacant, owner-occupied, partially leased, or unknown |
| Tenant count | What it holdsHow many tenants share the building |
Three things to know before you rely on a tenant entry:
- Expect gaps in lease terms. A private lease leaves little trace. Many rows return a tenant name and no rent. MAIA reads company filings, listing materials, press releases, and planning records, and it returns what those state.
- Sources age. A listing or a press release describes one date. Check the date on the source before you act.
- Some uses are declined. MAIA declines any request to use it for a decision about a person's credit, insurance, employment, tenant screening, or housing eligibility. See Restricted uses.
Limits#
- Owner occupancy and tenant info are research, so either can be wrong. Open the cell and read the reasoning before you act on it.
- Unavailable rows are not run again for you. Use Re-run unavailable rows in the column's Enrich menu.
