Question 1

How accurate is Rescope's analysis?

Accepted Answer

Analysis is built from official zoning codes, assessor parcel data, and municipal GIS layers, resolved to the specific parcel — and every rule comes back with its source citation so you can verify it. We recommend confirming critical decisions with the local planning department.

Question 2

Where does Rescope work today?

Accepted Answer

We cover Los Angeles (city and county), San Diego (city and county), and San Jose today — expanding across California. Enter an address to check coverage; if we don't cover your area yet, we'll tell you rather than guess.

Question 3

How fast is a go/no-go answer?

Accepted Answer

Seconds for the parcel analysis. A full feasibility report — zoning, overlays, utilities, site constraints, and required permits — is prepared and emailed within 24 hours.

Question 4

Does Rescope tell me if an ADU is allowed on a lot?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We resolve permitted uses, setbacks, lot coverage, overlays, and utility constraints for the exact parcel — everything you need for a go/no-go call on a detached or attached ADU.

Question 5

What about tricky lots — hillsides, coastal zones, historic districts?

Accepted Answer

Overlays are where manual research falls apart. Rescope flags coastal, historic, hazard, and other overlay districts on the parcel and shows which rules they add — so edge cases surface before a site visit, not after.

Question 6

How is this different from hiring a feasibility consultant?

Accepted Answer

A consultant study takes days to weeks per lot. Rescope gives you the answer in seconds and delivers the full report within a day, so you only bring in consultants for the projects that pass the first check.

Question 7

Can my sales team use it, or is it for planners?

Accepted Answer

It's built for the person answering the phone. Enter the homeowner's address, see the parcel's constraints, and give an answer on the first call instead of the third day.

Question 8

Which permits will my project need?

Accepted Answer

Every report lists the permits and clearances the project will need in that jurisdiction, from zoning clearance through building permits, so you know the full path up front.
