Area context (demo location hidden)
Fargo silty clay, 0 to 1 percent slopes: high shrink-swell, poorly drained, flooding none (USDA SSURGO).
AI summary — generated from this report's data
The property at Demo Property · West Fargo, ND is situated on Fargo silty clay with 0 to 1 percent slopes, which presents a high shrink-swell potential. This soil type is also characterized as poorly drained, and its suitability for septic absorption fields is very limited. However, the area has no recorded flooding frequency.
The most significant signal is the 'High' shrink-swell potential of the Fargo silty clay, which can be a foundation consideration.
The 'Very limited' suitability for septic absorption fields indicates a potential need for an engineered system if a septic system were to be considered.
Readers should verify the implications of 'High' shrink-swell potential and 'Poorly drained' soil for the property's existing or planned structures.

How to read this
High shrink-swell means the clay expands when wet and shrinks when dry — a foundation / slab consideration; Soils rated 'limited' for septic absorption may need an engineered / alternative system where there is no sewer. Natural soil-survey facts for the mapped map unit at this location (USDA SSURGO) — general survey data, not a substitute for a site-specific geotechnical or percolation test, and never an input to a rent or value estimate.

Rentari IQ rent estimates are informational market references, not pricing instructions. They are generated from your own property data, real comparable market listings, and — where local listing data is limited — AI-estimated market references (clearly labelled as such), never from other landlords' confidential rents, to support your own independent pricing decisions. You set your rents; Rentari does not. Every estimate is an advisory data point, and you remain solely responsible for the rent you charge. Estimates are not appraisals or legal advice and do not account for fair-housing, rent-control, or local pricing laws. Confirm every rent independently and comply with all applicable federal, state, and local requirements.
