Corrections Policy

If something on CapRateCity is wrong, we want to fix it. This page explains what kinds of changes we treat as corrections, how to report them, and what to expect after you do.

Types of Changes

• Factual corrections — when something we wrote is incorrect (a wrong number, broken formula, misattributed source, outdated regulation, misspelled name, etc.).
• Data updates — when underlying datasets (Zillow ZHVI/ZORI, Census, tax rates) are refreshed. These are normal refresh cycles, not corrections.
• Editorial or opinion changes — when we revise interpretation, recommendation, or framing. These are not error corrections but may still update an article.

How to Report a Possible Error

Email jake@capratecity.com with:

• The URL of the page in question
• The specific statement, number, or section you believe is wrong
• What you believe the correct information is
• A source we can verify against, if available

You can also use our contact page.

Review Process

We review reported errors against the original sources we cited (or against new authoritative sources where the original is outdated). Where a correction is warranted, we update the affected page and note that it was updated. Where a reported error is actually a difference of interpretation, we may revise wording for clarity without labeling it a correction.

Timing

We try to acknowledge correction requests within a few business days and complete verifiable factual corrections promptly thereafter. Complex disputes that require deeper data analysis may take longer. We do not guarantee any specific response time.

What We Don't Correct

We will not change editorial rankings, calculator methodology, or article framing in response to commercial pressure. Requests from companies, agents, or affiliates to alter editorial content that is not actually inaccurate will be declined. See our editorial policy and advertising policy.
