ParcelMole is a small Maryland company, founded by Alex Levine. We help homeowners and builders understand what the public zoning code allows on their lots, and every answer points back to the official text.
For builders and architects
Type an address. ParcelMole finds the parcel, reads the zoning from the county or town's own map, and applies the local rules as written. You get:
- A verdict on an accessory dwelling, with the reason named whenever it is not a clean yes.
- The main house's buildable envelope: setbacks, lot coverage and height, where we have them.
- A drawn worksheet of the lot you can print, every figure cited to its code section.
- Every property you look up, saved in one place.
Public data only: public GIS and published local code. No HOA or covenant rules, no field conditions. A first-pass site analysis, not a survey or legal advice.
Join the pilot
We are working with a small group of builders and architects in a free pilot through December 31, 2026. Tell us where you build and we will set you up.
Request pilot accessFor towns, clerks and planners
- We work from adopted codes and posted maps. Reports cite your ordinance, never staff, and never present a reply as an official opinion.
- Every report says it is not legal or permitting advice and tells the reader to verify the requirements with the town or county.
- If we read your rules wrong, one line is enough. We'll review it and fix it.
