We try our absolute best to make our data the most accurate and reliable information in the industry.
Our first level of data comes from the county property records.
While we strive for accuracy, it's important to acknowledge that county data can sometimes be incomplete or outdated, which may result in discrepancies.
The discrepancies in property data arise largely due to variations in county records, as counties maintain their databases independently. The completeness and update frequency of information can create gaps, for example, with missing bed or bath counts or outdated modifications.
Our second level of data is called Skip Tracing. You may get 1-10+ phone numbers for a single property. Call all of them! Even if the first number does not lead you to the owner, it's very likely that one of the numbers will.
We also provide email addresses. Any emails we show you have passed a basic validation test for being an active email account.
Lastly, we provide other addresses that may be associated with the property owner. These come from USPS address change forms. They include where the owner lives plus other properties the owner owns.
