Frequently Asked Questions
What is tax delinquent property data?
Tax delinquent property data includes information about properties where the owner has fallen behind on property tax payments. This data comes from county tax assessor records and typically includes the property address, owner name, tax amount owed, and years of delinquency.
How is the Opportunity Score calculated?
Opportunity levels are derived from the ratio of heir signals and deceased owner indicators to total properties. A higher ratio suggests more untapped opportunity with properties that may have motivated sellers or complex title situations that create deal potential.
How often is this data updated?
Market data is refreshed periodically from public county records. Individual county data freshness varies — some counties provide weekly updates while others update quarterly or annually.
Can I download the property lists?
Yes! Every county has a downloadable property list. Visit any county page to download a representative sample of that county's list as a CSV file. Pro subscribers get access to full datasets with scoring, owner data, and CRM integration.
Unclaimed Surplus Funds from Tax Sales
Millions in unclaimed surplus funds are sitting in county accounts with deadlines approaching. See how much is on the table, which counties have the most, and what's about to expire.
