Probate leads online

[Horacio Gutierrez]

Hello, Does listsource let you search for probate leads or only absentee owners. Where can I get leads online for probate?

[Sean OToole]

@Horacio Gutierrez - Listsource does not offer probate leads, though they certainly do not only do absentee either. If you go to their website you can see all the options.

On probate, I assume you are generally looking for distress situations, with death being the particular form of distress that has you interested in? If that is the case, probate leads are really late in the process and probably not what you want. They also only apply to folks who don't have trusts. Most property is transferred after death through either a trust, or joint tenancy - not probate. So if that is what you are looking for, then you probably want obituaries instead. Once you find the persons name in the obituary, use a property information service that offers name search (we and others offer that), to see if they owned property, if there is equity, etc.

Hope that helps.
