Adding your property takes a few minutes of your time. We handle the paperwork in the background, and you can watch the progress every step of the way.
Find your property
Go to fabrica.land/go, or click "Add a property" at the bottom of the property list on the fabrica.land homepage (it is on your profile page too, and when the homepage map shows nothing for sale in view, a "List your property" button sits beside it).
Select your State, then your County.
Type your parcel number into the "APN (Parcel Number)" field and click "Search".
Prefer to browse? You can also find your land on the map and click the parcel directly.
When your parcel comes up, click "Upgrade your property" to start.
If that parcel is already on Fabrica, "Upgrade your property" takes you to its property page instead.
Two shortcuts
From any map on fabrica.land. On the homepage, on a property page or on a profile, click your parcel on the map. A small card shows its parcel number, county and owner of record and asks "Do you own this property?". Click "Claim it" (you log in if you aren't yet), the card reads "Setting up your property…", and your property page opens. If the parcel is already on Fabrica, the click opens its property page instead, so a second record is never started for the same land.
From an unclaimed property page. Some parcels already have a page on Fabrica marked Unclaimed, for example from a postcard or a buyer's offer. If it's yours, click "Claim it" next to the owner line (or "Claim this property" in the Instant Liquidity card). After you log in, the page reads "Claiming this property…" and then opens as your owner view, with no trip to fabrica.land/go.
There is no address search. The APN (Assessor's Parcel Number) is the ID your county uses for your land. You'll find it on your property tax bill or on your county assessor's website.
You don't need to be signed in to find your parcel. If you pick a parcel first and then log in, the process resumes right where you left off.
What happens next
As soon as your property page opens, it asks once what you want to do with it: "Sell it", "Borrow against it" or "Just hold it". There is no wrong answer, and you can close the question. Setup itself has three steps that need you, and they can wait until a buyer shows up: Owner details (who holds title, exactly as written on your deed), Setup fee and Signing. The map's claim card puts it this way: "Then, at your pace: owner details, a setup fee ($0 today, collected later) and signing with an online notary."
There is no charge to add a property. The setup fee (currently $500 for most areas, shown in the app before you authorize) is collected only when you first sell the property, borrow against it, or use it in another app, and it is waived if you remove the property without using it.
When you are ready, the status bar on your property page walks you through each step with a button, and "See details" shows everything we're doing on our side. Signing is a short online notary session, and the deed is then recorded with your county. Signing early is what lets buyers buy right away, and what makes borrowing available. Recording typically takes a few days, though some counties complete within hours. See "What happens after I submit my property?" for the full picture.
You can list for sale right away
You don't have to finish setup before testing the market. Choose "Sell it", set your price, and the listing appears on the marketplace and can start receiving offers while we work on the title in the background. When a buyer makes an offer, you finish setup to accept it: owner details, the setup fee, then signing. Completing the setup is also what lets you take a loan.
If your area isn't covered yet
If you see "Not available in your area yet", we're not in your county quite yet, but we're expanding quickly and will reach out the moment your property is eligible.
