Yes, that would be cumbersome.  I thought your mailings were more targeted.  Listsource, yellow letters, and a few others offer the kind of database mining you are looking for.  You may want to search the forums to get reviews of the best services.

You can use the Bexar County Appraisal District website: http://www.bcad.org/.  Click "Property Search" from the menu, then query the home vis property address.  Usually the owner's mailing address can be found (see below).  These are not 100% accurate - for example, I don't live at the address below yet, as the property is still under renovation.  

There is also plenty of other good pedigree info and taxing info to be found on the BCAD site.

Here are some of the ones I attend regularly.  There are a few invite only smaller groups as well.  Hope this helps.

 Good luck. Hope you get it!

As long as the changes are up to code the appraiser and/or home inspector for the back-end sale should not have an issue with the added square footage.  It is very common for homes in San Antonio to have converted garages or additions that weren't permitted or recorded with the Bexar County Appraisal District (BCAD).  Most homeowners aren't quick to report the added square footage as it will increase their annual tax obligation.   Since you are going to be flipping the house, the added SF should be seen as a bonus and their the tax burden will fall on the new owner.  That being said, without a BCAD audit, the county may never know there is more square footage.  Fortunately for selling purposes the appraiser will have the actual measurement in his/her report.

I am a licensed agent in San Antonio.  For typical retail style brokerage most new agents have 70/30 split with the broker. If they produce over a certain amount volume in a given period the percentage can increase in their favor. In some brokerages the after a certain amount in fees the agent receives 100% of the commission.  Each brokerage structures is differently, but 70/30 seems to be the starting point at most places. 

@Leo Parker I get emails from this company all the time about better splits and lower fees. Texas Premier Realty, I think you just pay $200 per transaction. http://www.jointexaspremierrealty.com/
