How It Works
What goes into the Priority Score? keyboard_arrow_down
Three components: a Quality Score (roof age estimate, property value, neighbourhood tier, and permit signals), a Storm Bonus (this property's storm exposure relative to others in the territory), and an Ownership Bonus (recent ownership transfer aligned with the property type). The result is a 1–100 score with a tier label (Platinum 90+, Gold 80+, Silver 65+) meant to help you sequence outreach — not a claim about what's wrong with the roof or who's likely to say yes.
Where does the storm data come from? keyboard_arrow_down
NOAA-verified storm reports (hail, wind, tornado), matched to each parcel by geographic proximity. We show our work — event dates, magnitudes, and distances to the nearest verified observation — rather than collapsing it into an unexplained damage claim, so your team can judge each event's relevance for itself.
How accurate is the roof-age estimate? keyboard_arrow_down
Roof-age figures are model estimates, not physical inspection results, and we label them that way throughout the report. Where a confirmed permit record exists, it takes precedence over modeled estimates or lower-confidence third-party signals; when sources conflict, we flag it rather than blend the numbers into a single misleading figure.
Do you guarantee the data is accurate or complete? keyboard_arrow_down
No report — ours or anyone else's — can guarantee that. We compile from public records, government datasets, permit systems, assessor data, and other public and open-data sources believed to be reliable, but records can be outdated, incomplete, or wrong. Users are responsible for independently verifying anything they intend to rely on for a business, legal, or purchasing decision.
Comparison to Other Tools
How is this different from storm-tracking tools like HailTrace or GAF WeatherHub? keyboard_arrow_down
Storm-tracking tools tell you where weather happened. TerritoryIQ is a prioritization layer on top of that kind of data: we combine storm exposure with roof-age signals, permit history, and property/assessor data into a single per-property inspection-priority score, so your team can decide which properties in a storm path are worth visiting first. TerritoryIQ is designed to be used alongside a storm-tracking tool rather than instead of one.
How is this different from roof-measurement tools like EagleView? keyboard_arrow_down
Measurement platforms answer detailed questions about one roof — dimensions, pitch, area. TerritoryIQ is built for the step before that: narrowing a large territory down to the properties most worth measuring and inspecting in the first place. The two are complementary, not substitutes.
Should this replace my canvassing team? keyboard_arrow_down
No — it's meant to make them more efficient, not replace them. The report gives your canvassers a prioritized starting list with the reasoning behind each score; field verification is still how you confirm what's actually true about a given roof.
Why should I trust your score over my own team's judgment? keyboard_arrow_down
We're not asking you to take it on faith. Every report shows the underlying reason codes, confidence levels, and supporting data behind the score, so your team can check it against what they find in the field. We also offer a pilot: give us a set of addresses you've already inspected, or let us score a batch after the next storm, and compare our prioritization against your normal canvassing hit rate before you commit to anything.
Getting Started
Can I try this before subscribing? keyboard_arrow_down
Yes. You can request a single free property report here to see the data for yourself. We also offer a pilot arrangement: submit addresses you've already inspected, or let us generate a prioritized list for your territory after a storm event, and compare the results against your team's existing process. If it doesn't help you focus your time better, there's no reason to move forward.
What's the best way to use this data internally? keyboard_arrow_down
Treat it as a targeting and prioritization tool that feeds into your existing, compliant sales process — not as a stand-alone justification for contacting anyone, and not as a substitute for a licensed inspection. That's the posture the reports themselves are built around.
Legal & Compliance
Is it legal to use TerritoryIQ reports for sales outreach? keyboard_arrow_down
Yes. TerritoryIQ reports are property intelligence — built from public records, permit history, storm data, assessor data, and geospatial data — and can lawfully support your sales targeting and prioritization. Using the report itself does not require special permission.
What the report does not do is override the rules that already govern how you contact people. If your outreach includes calls, texts, emails, or automated messaging, your team is still responsible for complying with applicable law — including the TCPA, the National Do Not Call Registry, CAN-SPAM, and any state or local telephone-solicitation rules (for example, Indiana's telephone solicitor registration requirements). Compliant door-to-door canvassing and direct mail have their own rules too, and those remain your responsibility as well.
The short version: we provide property intelligence, not contact permission. Use the report to decide where to focus, then run that outreach through your own compliant sales process.
Does a high score mean a property's roof is damaged or needs replacement? keyboard_arrow_down
No. Every score, tier, and estimate in a TerritoryIQ report is a statistical inspection-priority signal, not a determination of actual roof condition. We report what's on the record — storm exposure (events, dates, magnitudes, distances), permit history, and estimated roof-age ranges — and we're explicit about which of those are confirmed facts versus model estimates. We don't claim to know that a specific roof is damaged, and no report should be presented to a homeowner as evidence that their roof needs work. Field verification by a licensed professional is always the next step.
Is this a "consumer report" under the FCRA? keyboard_arrow_down
No. TerritoryIQ reports are not consumer reports as defined by the Fair Credit Reporting Act and cannot be used for credit decisions, lending, insurance underwriting, employment, tenant screening, or any other FCRA-regulated purpose. They're built for property-level sales prioritization only.
Can I use this data for robocalls or mass texting? keyboard_arrow_down
The report can help you decide which properties to prioritize; it doesn't change what's legally required for how you contact the people who live there. Robocalls and automated texts generally require the same consent under the TCPA regardless of your lead source, and Do Not Call rules still apply. We'd encourage you to route any outreach decisions through your compliance or legal team before scaling call/text campaigns off any lead list, including ours.
Do you provide homeowner phone numbers or calling lists? keyboard_arrow_down
No. Reports include the property's mailing address and owner name as they appear in public county records — we do not sell phone numbers, email lists, or contact lists of any kind, and nothing we provide is scrubbed against the Do Not Call Registry. If you source contact information elsewhere, the consent and DNC obligations that come with using it are yours.
Can I show the report to a homeowner, or share it with other companies? keyboard_arrow_down
Reports are licensed for your company's internal use — prioritizing, planning, and routing your own outreach. They may not be resold, redistributed, or republished. We also strongly advise against presenting a report to a homeowner as evidence about their roof: the scores are statistical prioritization signals, not condition findings, and representing them as proof of damage would misstate what the report is (and could create deceptive-practices exposure for your company).
What about homeowner privacy? keyboard_arrow_down
Our reports are built to score properties, not profile people. We don't publish household-level demographic data (income, age, financial status) alongside an identified address, and any scoring based on Census data uses tract-level housing-stock statistics only. Owner-name and mailing-address fields reflect what's already on public county record.
