Listsource has none of those. And honestly those are better sourced locally as @Steven J. suggested. While I'm a huge believer in using public records as a lead source (that's what my company does), there are some things that are better sourced at other points in the process. Most people with a house worth buying have enough money to use a divorce attorney, having relationships with them will put you earlier in the queue and be a referral from a source the owner trusts (or at least more so than a cold call). A friend who killed it on code violations built relationships with the code enforcement officers. That gave him an opportunity on every deal long before it hit public records. For those who like dealing with heirs, do you wait for the probate filing, or get started after the obituary?

Bottom line, for each opportunity you want to pursue, take the time to think through the best way to find the lead, rather than blindly purchasing lists that might be outdated and over sold.
