ONTARIO HOME INTEL · PROPERTY PASSPORT

A clearer starting point for researching a Hamilton property.

The Hamilton Property Passport organizes property-specific screening information from official published sources into one practical report—so you can see what was found, what deserves attention and what may need to be confirmed before you move forward.

$29.95 CAD per property

$29.95 CAD per property through December 31, 2026. Price increases to $39.95 CAD on January 1, 2027.

Available for Hamilton properties. Search a building address in Hamilton, Ancaster, Dundas, Flamborough, Glanbrook or Stoney Creek. Official municipal mapping must confirm the match. Unit-specific reports are not supported.

Hamilton screening uses official City address, municipal boundary, zoning, heritage, environmental-area, building-permit, planning, licensing and wastewater datasets, plus published provincial Escarpment, Greenbelt, natural heritage, ANSI and wetland mapping. Mapping is screened at the address point; parcel-wide coverage, floodplain clearance, title and inspection clearance are not established. Items that cannot be reliably determined at property level remain Neutral and include verification guidance.

Understand what deserves a closer look

A Passport does not treat every result as equally certain. It separates source-backed findings, results requiring further investigation and information that could not be reliably verified instead of converting uncertainty into a false “clear.”

Green

No issue identified in the specific source checked. This is not a guarantee or clearance.

Yellow

Further investigation or confirmation is recommended.

Red

An explicit source-backed material condition warrants priority attention. Red does not mean you should not buy the property. Investigate the specific finding, confirm its implications and consider it in your due diligence; it is not a purchase recommendation.

Neutral

Information could not be reliably verified or the available source coverage is insufficient.

Useful before you rely on assumptions

The Passport can be useful when researching a property before an offer, reviewing a property you already own, considering renovations or development, or identifying questions to raise with a REALTOR®, lawyer, municipality, conservation authority or other appropriate professional.

What the Passport does not do

The Property Passport is an information-screening product. It is not legal advice, engineering advice, environmental assessment, zoning confirmation, title opinion, permit clearance or regulatory clearance. Published datasets can be incomplete, historical coverage varies, and mapped boundaries may require property-specific confirmation. A no-record result does not necessarily mean that no record, restriction or requirement exists.

Built around traceable sources and visible limitations

The report identifies source coverage and explains important limitations. When OHI cannot reliably automate a check, the result is kept Neutral rather than presented as a clear result.
