Know the water before the option period ends.
A rural buyer's first question is whether there is water. The public record already answers most of it; SiteReport reads that record for one property in seconds and puts the answer in a document you can hand over.
The transaction, in order.
Taking the listing
Check it for nothing
Enter the address. The Water Check locates the parcel, counts the wells on record around it, reads their median depth and names the aquifer and the district. Free, without an account, for any Texas address.
Under contract
Report it before the option period ends
The Water Due Diligence Report arrives in minutes: the wells on record with distance and depth, an estimated depth to water with its range, the district context, the questions only the seller or a title company can answer, and a PDF for the lender. $99 once, or 1 credit on Beneath Pro.
The buyer
Send a link
A share link opens the report without an account. Revoke it when the deal closes, or set it to expire. The PDF goes to the lender and the file.
The seller's disclosure
Research the water lines of TREC 61-0
Every report organises the public evidence behind the water questions on the seller's disclosure notice, each line marked verified, inferred, not found, or a question for the seller or the title company. It does not fill the form in, and it does not say what the seller knows.
Read by status, not by adjective.
A report never says more than the record does. Each claim says which it is.
Verified
A public record states it: a driller's report, a groundwater database entry, the appraisal district's parcel.
Inferred
Estimated from the records around the property, with its range and its confidence. Capped at moderate until the Texas model is validated.
Not found
The sources consulted hold no record of it. A well not on record may still exist; the report says so.
Seller confirmation required
Only the seller can answer it: whether a well is in use, its age, its condition, what it was told.
Title or legal review required
Water rights, shared wells, easements. The report points at the question and stops.
Insufficient evidence
The record is too thin to say, and the report says that rather than guessing.

Questions from the office.
- Is the free check really free?
- Yes, and it needs no account. Type a Texas address and it locates the parcel, counts the wells on public record around it, gives their median depth, and names the aquifer and the groundwater district. Run it on every listing you take. You pay only when you want the full report, and you can decide that after you have seen what the record holds.
- Can I give the report to my client?
- That is what it is for. Every report has a share link that opens without an account, which you can revoke when the deal closes or set to expire on a date, and a PDF for the lender and the file. The report carries its sources and its retrieval date, so a buyer's own agent or attorney can check any line in it.
- How long does a report take?
- Minutes, not days. You buy it from the free check, it is built while you wait, and it arrives as a web report and a PDF. That is the point of the Water Due Diligence Report: it fits inside an option period rather than competing with one.
- Does it fill in the seller's disclosure?
- No, and it will not pretend to. It organises the public evidence behind the water lines of the notice and marks each line for what it is: verified by a record, inferred with a range, not found, a question for the seller, or a question for title. The notice stays the seller's document and the signature stays the seller's.
- What does it cost to run this across a book of listings?
- Checks are free and unlimited. Reports are $99 each on their own, or 1 credit on Beneath Pro, which is $149 a month for 15 credits and a dashboard of every property you have looked at. Credits beyond the 15 are $9.
- Which parts of Texas are covered?
- The state, wherever the public record reaches. Coverage is a function of how many wells were filed near a given parcel, not of county lines, so a ranch in a well-drilled part of the Hill Country has more to stand on than one where nobody has filed in twenty years. The free check tells you which you are looking at before you spend anything.
