Any Suggestions For Building Better Lists at the List Providers?

[Burt L.]

I've been spending time learning how to build a list at Listsource, and am about to get to the Paypal part, where costs become irreversible. For one, I learned that you can't make a single list that includes both Free and Clear properties and a LTV debt search in the same list - despite what one phone rep told me.

I also learned that choosing "Last Recording Date" will include both MLS sales and FSBO's etc as CoreLogic doesn't pull anything from the MLS - according to another phone rep.

I wonder if there some well-earned suggestions on how to build stronger lists and keep the costs down by making fewer searches - before hitting the Submit Payment button that soon awaits myself and others.

I am working on a Free and Clear and LTV list (1-60%) since they can't be combined, but general list-building and buying suggestions are also appreciated.
