# HeritageDeed Title Search and Property Data (remote · heritagedeed.com) US title search, auction pre-checks, surplus and tax sale lists, free flood, radon and LLC lookups. - Trust score: 77/100 (medium) - Change this week: +10 - Registry status: active - Liveness: live - Owner verified: no - Last scored: 2026-11-05 ## Components - remote · `heritagedeed.com`: 77/100 (this document), [markdown](https://verifymcp.io/servers/com-heritagedeed-title-search/mcp-public.md), [page](https://verifymcp.io/servers/com-heritagedeed-title-search/mcp-public) ## Channel facts - Endpoint: `https://heritagedeed.com/mcp/public` - Transports: `streamable-http` - Auth: `none` - Version: `1.2.0` ## Trust breakdown How this component scores in each security and reliability category. Every signal is checked automatically against the live server, and we only credit what we can confirm. Scores are 0–100 per category. Scoring method: https://verifymcp.io/docs/scoring (what has changed: https://verifymcp.io/docs/scoring/changelog) Scored 2026-11-05. - **Endpoint Security**: 74/100 - The endpoint's TLS certificate is valid, in date, and uses a strong key. - No authorisation is required to call this server. Nothing on it is marked destructive, but we can't show that an anonymous caller can only read: full credit needs the server to list at least one tool and every tool to be verifiably read-only. We use a best-effort check of tool names and descriptions to tell read-only tools from tools that change things, so some genuinely read-only tools may not get full credit. Names that start with a read verb (get, list, read, search and similar) and accurate readOnlyHint annotations help. Meet that to earn full credit, or require authorisation. - HTTPS is enforced; there's no plaintext access path. - HSTS check failed: the Strict-Transport-Security header is absent. - DNSSEC check failed: this domain isn't protected by DNSSEC. - **Transport & Reachability**: 100/100 - Verified streamable-http transport via a live MCP handshake. - **Schema Quality & AI Usability**: 60/100 - AI-judged instruction clarity (good). - Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 11476 tokens (~197/item across 58 items; 58 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params. - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples. - **Stability & Change Management**: 93/100 - Stability observed for 28 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses. - **Tool Coverage**: 67/100 - 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name). - 0% of tool parameters carry a description. - **Tool Safety**: 75/100 - No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured. - 0 of 1 tool(s) whose name or description implies an irreversible operation declare an MCP destructiveHint annotation; "transfer_tax" implies "transfer" and declares readOnlyHint instead, contradicting what its own name says it does. - An AI judge read all 59 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it. - **Capabilities**: 100/100 - Implements a supported MCP spec version (2025-11-25); the latest is 2026-07-28. ## Install ### How do I install the HeritageDeed Title Search and Property Data MCP server? HeritageDeed Title Search and Property Data is a hosted endpoint at https://heritagedeed.com/mcp/public, so there is nothing to install locally. Ready-made configuration for Claude, Cursor, VS Code, Codex and 5 more is on this page, copied from each client's own documentation. ### Claude ```bash claude mcp add --transport http com-heritagedeed-title-search 'https://heritagedeed.com/mcp/public' ``` ### Cursor ```json { "mcpServers": { "com-heritagedeed-title-search": { "url": "https://heritagedeed.com/mcp/public" } } } ``` ### VS Code ```json { "servers": { "com-heritagedeed-title-search": { "type": "http", "url": "https://heritagedeed.com/mcp/public" } } } ``` ### Codex ```toml [mcp_servers.com-heritagedeed-title-search] url = "https://heritagedeed.com/mcp/public" ``` ### opencode ```json { "$schema": "https://opencode.ai/config.json", "mcp": { "com-heritagedeed-title-search": { "type": "remote", "url": "https://heritagedeed.com/mcp/public", "enabled": true } } } ``` ### OpenClaw ```bash openclaw mcp add com-heritagedeed-title-search --url 'https://heritagedeed.com/mcp/public' --transport streamable-http ``` ### Hermes ```yaml mcp_servers: com-heritagedeed-title-search: url: "https://heritagedeed.com/mcp/public" ``` ### Netclaw ```json { "McpServers": { "com-heritagedeed-title-search": { "Transport": "http", "Url": "https://heritagedeed.com/mcp/public" } } } ``` ### Vellum ```bash assistant mcp add com-heritagedeed-title-search -t streamable-http -u 'https://heritagedeed.com/mcp/public' ``` ### Other ```json { "mcpServers": { "com-heritagedeed-title-search": { "type": "http", "url": "https://heritagedeed.com/mcp/public" } } } ``` The mcpServers block is a cross-client convention.

Title search: the states and counties (with main cities) where a report can be ordered, what it includes and does not, and the price. Also: the Environmental Records Report, flood zone and Superfund lookups (any US address), the cities with building records, the places with property history, the counties with surplus funds and tax sale lists, and the calculators' states. Call this before ordering if you are unsure of the county; the list is live (new counties appear automatically). ### `check_coverage` (~93 tokens) Check whether a title search can be ordered for a county (or a borough / city such as Brooklyn, Tampa, Houston). Returns the exact `state` and `county` values to pass to order_title_search. (The Environmental Records Report and the flood / Superfund lookups work at any US address and need no coverage check.) Input parameters: - `county` (string, required) - `state` (string, required) ### `check_address` (~192 tokens) Check an address BEFORE ordering (takes a few seconds). For a title search (report_type 'current_owner', the default) give `state` and `county`: it matches the address to a real parcel in the county's records. For report_type 'environmental' only the address is needed: it is matched with the US Census geocoder (any US address). status 'matched' = safe to order; 'not_found' = ask the user to correct the address; 'not_covered' = the county is not covered; 'unavailable' = the county / Census service is down right now (a title search can still be ordered and retries; an environmental order needs the geocoder, so try again later). Input parameters: - `address` (string, required) - `county` (string) - `report_type` (string) - `state` (string) ### `order_title_search` (~315 tokens) Order a report for a property. report_type 'current_owner' (default) = the title search report: `address` is the street address (house number, street, city, ZIP), `state` the two-letter code, `county` the county (or borough / city alias); only covered counties (check_coverage). report_type 'environmental' = the Environmental Records Report for any US street address: give the full address with city and state; `state` and `county` are not needed (they come from the Census geocoder). Returns an order_id; then poll get_order_status every ~20 seconds until status is 'complete' (usually 1 to 3 minutes) and call get_report. Costs $49 for a title search and $29 for an Environmental Records Report. `email` is optional: the report link is emailed to it. Payment: the answer carries `checkout_url` for the user to pay in a browser (the search starts once paid). When the MCP connection sends the user's API key (a Bearer token header with the hd_live_... key), the order is paid from that account's report credits or Pro Reports allowance instead, with no checkout (my_account shows the balance; buy_plan sells credits). Input parameters: - `address` (string, required) - `county` (string) - `email` - `report_type` (string) - `state` (string) ### `get_order_status` (~60 tokens) Progress of an order (title search or environmental): status ('pending', 'processing', 'complete', 'failed'), per-source progress, and the error message if it failed. When complete, call get_report. Input parameters: - `order_id` (string, required) ### `get_report` (~98 tokens) The finished report as structured JSON. Title search: property and owner of record, risk score and summary, key findings, chain-of-title counts, environmental and tax data, sources searched with their status. Environmental report: every federal list searched with the records found and their distances, site facts and sources. Also returns the PDF link. Only works once get_order_status reports 'complete'. Input parameters: - `order_id` (string, required) ### `get_sample_report` (~79 tokens) A real finished report to look at before ordering. report_type 'current_owner' (default): the title search for 350 Fifth Avenue, New York (Empire State Building). 'environmental': the Environmental Records Report for 300 Bond Street, Brooklyn. Returns the page and the PDF. Input parameters: - `report_type` (string) ### `get_terms` (~32 tokens) Terms, privacy, refund policy and the legal boundary of every product (what a report or lookup is and is not). ### `rest_api_info` (~135 tokens) How to use HeritageDeed's key-authenticated REST API (v1) instead of, or next to, this MCP server: base URL, how to get a free API key, authentication, endpoints, the live list of report types you can order, limits, signed webhooks, idempotency, batches (JSON or CSV) and the white-label PDF option. Use it when a developer wants to integrate title searches (O&E reports), lien and encumbrance checks or environmental records reports into their own software, or asks for an API key. This MCP server itself needs no key. ### `building_records_lookup` (~290 tokens) Building code violations and building permits on record with the city for one address, free, from the city's own records (the same sources the title search report reads). `city`: chicago, philadelphia, cincinnati, mesa, glendale-az (Glendale, Arizona), gilbert, buffalo or provo (list_coverage returns the current list). `address`: street address starting with the house number, e.g. "233 S Wacker Dr"; the city is added when missing. Returns counts over every record on file (total, open, severe, in court, balances due, active / expired permits) and the most relevant violations and permits: the first 5 of each without an account (`gated: true`, `wall` holds the true totals and `message` says how a person unlocks the rest on the page; the counts are complete). Some cities publish only one of the two (Glendale: violations; Gilbert, Provo: permits). status: 'ok'; 'not_found' (no parcel matches: ask the user to check the address); 'not_searched' (outside city limits: the message says why); 'unavailable' (the city's service did not answer: not a 'no violations' answer; retry later). Input parameters: - `address` (string, required) - `city` (string, required) ### `title_insurance_premium` (~335 tokens) Title insurance premiums from the official rate schedule, free: Texas (TDI promulgated basic premium, effective March 1, 2026), Florida (Rule 69O-186.003), Pennsylvania (TIRBOP manual, August 1, 2024) and New York (TIRSA Seventh Revision, October 1, 2024, Zone 1 / Zone 2). `state`: TX, FL, PA or NY. `owner_amount`: owner's policy amount, usually the price (0 for a refinance = loan policy only); `loan_amount`: lender's policy amount (0 for cash). New York: `ny_county` (e.g. "Erie", "Kings", "Brooklyn") or `ny_zone` (1 or 2; NYC and downstate are Zone 2, the default). Pennsylvania: `pa_homeowner` for the ALTA Homeowner's Policy (+10%). Florida: `fl_prior_policy` = the seller's prior owner's policy amount when the reissue rate applies. Returns owner, loan and fee totals, every line with its rule, notes on what is excluded, the schedule's regulator, manual and effective date, and the sources. An estimate: endorsements and settlement fees are extra.

Returns each tax with its amount and who customarily pays (seller, buyer, negotiable), the total, flags for what is not included (NYC supplemental tax, local municipal taxes), and the sources. An estimate, not tax advice. Input parameters: - `kind` (string) - `mortgage` (number) - `place` (string, required) - `price` (number, required) ### `seller_net_sheet` (~376 tokens) Seller net proceeds and the buyer's closing costs for a sale, free: Florida, Texas, New York City, New York State outside NYC, Philadelphia. `place`: fl, tx, nyc, ny or philadelphia. `price`; `payoff` (the seller's mortgage payoffs); `commission_pct` (total commission, e.g. 5.5); `loan_amount` (the buyer's new loan, for the lender's policy and Florida mortgage taxes); `owner_policy_payer` seller or buyer (default: local custom, seller in FL and TX, buyer in NY and Philadelphia); `seller_share_of_split_tax` 0 to 1 for taxes the contract splits (Philadelphia, default 0.5); `ny_county` for the TIRSA zone outside NYC; `recording_pages` (FL and TX, statutory fee) or `recording_amount` (NY, Philadelphia: entered); `other_seller_costs` (prorated taxes, HOA, repairs); `fl_prior_policy` (Florida reissue rate). Returns the seller's lines and total, the net to the seller, the buyer's lines and total, flags, and the sources of every rate. An estimate, not a closing disclosure.

Returns: registry `records` (status, formation date, entity type, principal office, registered agent, officers/principals where the state publishes them, link to the official record), and `properties` recorded to that exact entity name in NYC ACRIS (deeds, mortgages), NYC HPD registrations, NY State assessment rolls, Philadelphia OPA and Illinois PTAX-203 transfer declarations (with the declared signer's title). People appear only as initials. New York does not publish LLC members; Florida (Sunbiz) is not searched automatically (its link is returned). Refuses a person's name: business entities only.

Returns candidates with how each matched, the management certificate PDF (Texas) or registration number, status, expiry and management company (Utah). Candidates only: the recorded declaration (CC&Rs) on the lot decides. Other states: status 'unsupported' with guidance. Input parameters: - `address` (string, required) - `community` ### `ucc_lien_search` (~201 tokens) UCC financing statements (and NYC federal tax lien notices) where a BUSINESS is the debtor. `name`: the debtor business name as registered (e.g. 'Publix Super Markets, Inc.'). `where`: 'all' (default), 'FL' (Florida Secured Transaction Registry, statewide), 'NYC' (ACRIS personal property records: fixture and co-op filings and federal tax liens, four boroughs), 'CO' or 'CT' (state open data).

Tell the user it is a records lookup, not a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment. The full search (RCRA, tanks, brownfields, flood, wetlands, radon, map) is the Environmental Records Report: order_title_search(address, report_type='environmental'). Input parameters: - `address` (string, required) ### `superfund_sites_by_state` (~195 tokens) Every EPA Superfund National Priorities List (NPL) site in one state (50 states and DC), free: counts (final, proposed, deleted, construction complete), a per-county breakdown, the state's rank, plus other EPA record counts for the state (other Superfund/SEMS sites, leaking and registered underground storage tanks, brownfields, radon zones).

Always tell the user this is a screening from FEMA's layer, not an official flood zone determination (lenders use FEMA's Standard Flood Hazard Determination Form). Input parameters: - `address` (string, required) ### `fair_market_rent_by_county` (~142 tokens) HUD Fair Market Rents (studio to 4 bedrooms, monthly) for one US county, for the current HUD fiscal year and the previous one, which year is in effect, the 90-110% voucher payment standard range, whether the area is a HUD-designated Small Area FMR metro, and the state and national medians. `state`: two-letter code or name. `county`: name or FIPS ("Harris", "Cook County", "17031").

Non-metropolitan ZIP codes have none: use fair_market_rent_by_county for those. Input parameters: - `zip_code` (string, required) ### `radon_lookup` (~223 tokens) Radon for a US street address or a 5-digit ZIP code: the county's EPA radon zone (Zone 1 = predicted average indoor screening level above 4 pCi/L, Zone 2 = 2-4, Zone 3 = below 2; EPA's 1993 county map) and the radon test results on file for the county (laboratory test data 2008-2017: tests, median pCi/L, percent at or above 4 pCi/L; CDC state-program data for the latest year reported; New York DOH, Pennsylvania DEP and Tennessee DOH state data). A ZIP code returns every county its Census ZIP Code Tabulation Area overlaps, by land share, and in Pennsylvania the DEP results for the ZIP itself.

HeritageDeed Title Search and Property Data is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as com.heritagedeed/title-search. US title search, auction pre-checks, surplus and tax sale lists, free flood, radon and LLC lookups. This page covers its hosted endpoint (https://heritagedeed.com/mcp/public). ### Is the HeritageDeed Title Search and Property Data MCP server safe to use? HeritageDeed Title Search and Property Data scores 77 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. That is a record of what we were able to check automatically, not an endorsement. The category breakdown on this page shows every signal behind the number, including the ones we could not confirm. ### What tools does the HeritageDeed Title Search and Property Data MCP server expose? HeritageDeed Title Search and Property Data exposes 58 tools: list_coverage, check_coverage, check_address, order_title_search, get_order_status, and 53 more. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 9,732 tokens of context every time the server is loaded. ### Does the HeritageDeed Title Search and Property Data MCP server require authentication? No. We connected to HeritageDeed Title Search and Property Data without credentials and it answered, so anything it exposes is reachable by anyone who knows the address. ### Is the HeritageDeed Title Search and Property Data MCP server still maintained? HeritageDeed Title Search and Property Data is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 5 November 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced. ### What did VerifyMCP test on the HeritageDeed Title Search and Property Data MCP server? VerifyMCP ran 13 checks on HeritageDeed Title Search and Property Data, covering TLS certificate, Authorization, HTTPS, HSTS header and 9 more. Supply Chain Security and Provenance & Transparency do not apply to a hosted endpoint, so they were not tested. The score does not measure everything, and the scoring documentation lists what it leaves out. ## Links - Remote endpoint: https://heritagedeed.com/mcp/public - Website: https://heritagedeed.com/developers - Changelog RSS feed: https://verifymcp.io/servers/com-heritagedeed-title-search/mcp-public.xml - Changelog JSON feed: https://verifymcp.io/servers/com-heritagedeed-title-search/mcp-public/changelog.json - Trust report (JSON): https://verifymcp.io/servers/com-heritagedeed-title-search/mcp-public.json - HTML version of this page: https://verifymcp.io/servers/com-heritagedeed-title-search/mcp-public
