One parcel's stored record and its checks: the county value, last sale, years held, lot, zoning line, water, outbuildings, the recorded signs an owner may sell, and (Colorado) every stored check such as tax delinquency, estate records, code cases, permits, wildfire and flood. Find it by shinnslist key, by street address (with ZIP when you have it), or by latitude and longitude.
The shinnslist parcel key, like CO|Boulder|R0012345, from an earlier answer.
Latitude in decimal degrees, with lng.
Longitude in decimal degrees, with lat.
The five-digit ZIP, with address.
A street address, like 874 Cold Spring Rd.

}How shinnslist grades itself, in plain words: personas open only after a hand check against county records, signals proven only by a test against their live source, the daily ranking graded against what actually sells, and how close the value estimate comes to real sale prices (the buyer-price floor is the bar). Returns the current numbers and the page to cite.
No arguments.

}Find off-market parcels in a Colorado or Virginia county, town or ZIP from county records: who is likely to sell and why. Pick a trade for a buyer's list: wholesaler (absentee owners, held 10+ years, bought for under half of today's value), flipper (dated homes next to updated sales), str_investor (mountain-town homes with absentee owners), developer (land is most of the value), cash_investor and brrr (rent against value), land (empty lots), two_households (a family compound: room for two households), realtor (estate, tax lien, code case or stalled permit). Returns parcels with address, county value, last sale, years held and a shinnslist link; never owner names.
| Argument | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| zip | string | A five-digit ZIP code. |
| town | string | A Colorado or Virginia town or city name, for example Lyons or Estes Park. Matched to the parcels within about five miles of the town. |
| limit | integer | How many parcels to return, at most 25 (default 10). |
| state | string | CO or VA. Optional when county or zip is given. |
| trade | string | The buyer's trade: one of the doors above. Omit for every parcel in the area. |
| wells | boolean | Colorado only: a well permit on the lot. |
| county |
Which counties and cities shinnslist covers, how many parcels each holds, how fresh they are, which buyer's trades are open, and how many signals are proven. Call it first when unsure whether an area is covered.

}The signals shinnslist has proven against their live public source, with the date, precision and recall of each proof. Only proven signals are listed; run one with run_signal. Nothing pending or planned appears here.

}Run one proven signal adapter live at a point in Colorado or Virginia (see list_signals for the ids). Needs an API key (x-api-key; a free key from POST /api/keys) and counts against its daily quota; the aggregate tools above do not.

|---|---|---|
| lat* | number | Latitude in decimal degrees. |
