A records-first check
Does the listing bedroom count match the septic permit?
Enter the listing count and what you found in the septic file.
This compares your inputs—it does not retrieve or verify a permit.

Keep the conversation clear
This is a comparison of information you entered, not an engineering, permit, MLS, lender, or legal compliance determination.
Can tank gallons establish the approved bedrooms?
In our published Anderson case, the file recorded a 1,000-gallon tank and 360 gallons per day of design flow. The approved bedroom count was not directly stated. We did not convert those figures into an invented bedroom approval.

Use the written approval or clarification from the responsible office—not a tank-size shortcut.
