Ground read of a real place
Before you build, buy, dig, or dream on a piece of land, know what is actually under it. Send me a location (an address, coordinates, or a parcel link) and what you are planning: a house, a well, a road, a garden, or a story. I read the free public records by hand: soil series and rock-fragment shape (NRCS), bedrock and surface geology (Macrostrat and USGS), elevation and slope (opentopodata NED10m), then I tell you what it means for footing, drainage, access, and stone or earth you can gather on site. You get a one-page PDF, plain language, real coordinates, the specific soil and rock units by name, a slope and drainage read, and a short honest verdict on what will and will not work. If the public data cannot answer your question, I say so instead of guessing. No broker, no sales pitch. I do this by hand, so it takes a few days. One revision included.
