Lead and list generators

I have done most of my own marketing and list generating in-house for years. I was wondering if bigger pockets has a system or if anyone can suggest some companies that will help you generate specific leads and lists for mail-outs in DFW Texas area? Thanks for your help in advance, i have looked over the site without much luck, but I am pretty sure this is a well covered topic - somewhere on here.....

@Jerryll Noorden Man... I love your passion!

I agree, List have flaws. Age of list is #1- If you call your web leads 6 months after they fill out form your conversion would be way less than calling them 5 minutes after submission. (same w/ list follow up works)

Why? Most will sell their house, someone solved their problem, they fixed the problem themselves. Will you still get deals? Sure, but at a lower conversion rate than when they first came in. (6 month old list vs fresh list)

Contacting the seller when they are ready is something websites have a huge advantage over traditional "OLD" lists. You can target tired landlord, vacant house, inherited house, divorce, job transfer, money problems with SEO.

I compare list to Adwords. There are 2000 keywords/phrase in a broad campaign. Why not just use 1 exact match keyword. Your cost would be less?  Broad campaigns produce deals. They may not be as targeted but they produce. 

List are static. The day you buy them they start diminishing in value. People sell houses, fill vacant or get over their problems. How do we create dynamic list?

My idea is to combine all court house cases daily  (divorce, probate, eviction, liens ) and drive them to a converting website or answering service.

Its a way to improve "list" problems by updating/housing/combining historical pain points and current problems we can convert list into real time data. 

I started a thread on Dyanamic data  and would really like your feedback on how to make it better by pointing out all the flaws. LOL I expected with all the knowledge and passion on this site for positive comments to pile up...but I will settle for flaws too!
