ListCentral sells the file — buy a county for a period and stop. For anyone working one to three counties that is usually far cheaper; if you pull dozens of counties monthly, a flat-rate seat may genuinely win. Our records come from county courthouses and public records directly rather than relicensed from an aggregator, which is why every snapshot carries a period date.
