Eviction Leads — Landlord Eviction Filing Lists by County
Landlords filing evictions are under pressure from every direction at once: a non-paying tenant, disrupted cash flow, property damage risk, attorney fees, and a court timeline that can stretch months. For a subset of these landlords — especially absentee owners and those managing multiple units — selling is the fastest way out. Eviction filings are public record, and ListCentral compiles them county by county so you can reach motivated sellers before any other investor does.
Why Landlords with Eviction Filings Sell
Not every landlord with an eviction filing is ready to sell — but the ones who are tend to be highly motivated. The signal gets stronger when the landlord is:
- Absentee — managing a problem property from out of state or out of county
- Multi-unit — one eviction creates cash flow strain across the whole portfolio
- First-time landlord — inherited a property and wasn't prepared for active management
- Repeat filer — a second or third eviction on the same property signals persistent problems and ownership fatigue
For real estate wholesalers and investors, eviction leads offer relatively low competition compared to probate or foreclosure lists. Fewer investors target eviction records, which means more motivated conversations and less noise in your outreach.

Stack Eviction Leads with Other Signals
Eviction leads get stronger when combined with complementary data. Common high-conversion stacks:
- Evictions + Absentee owner — owner mailing address differs from the property; the highest-motivation segment in eviction lists
- Evictions + Tax delinquent — landlord is losing rental income and falling behind on property taxes; dual pressure to exit
- Evictions + High equity — enough equity to sell at a discount and still walk away clean; makes your cash offer viable for the seller
All three complementary lead types are available at ListCentral. Browse all lead types or request free samples before you buy.
Frequently Asked Questions — Eviction Leads
What are eviction leads for real estate?
Eviction leads are records of landlords who have filed eviction proceedings against tenants. Frustrated absentee landlords and multi-unit owners dealing with non-paying tenants are often motivated to sell their rental property rather than continue managing it — making eviction filings one of the most underutilized motivated-seller lead sources in real estate.
How does ListCentral source eviction data?
From county courthouse filings and public court records — official case filings, updated monthly. Not news scrapers or third-party aggregated data.
Who do I contact from an eviction list?
The property owner (the landlord who filed), not the tenant. Use the owner mailing address in the list for direct mail, or skip-trace to build out phone and email for outreach.
Do I need a subscription?
No. Pay-per-list. Choose your county and date range, buy, download instantly. No recurring charges.
