Why it matters

A new landlord is setting up: insurance, a property manager, repairs, a loan and tenants all come in the first months. Some also decide quickly to resell, which is when an investor can step in.

Where it shows up in public records

The recorded deed gives the sale date, price and buyer. The buyer's mailing address on the county tax roll is a different address from the property, which is how a landlord is told apart from a family that moved in.

How to use it

  • Property managers, insurers and repair companies: write in the first month, before the owner picks someone.
  • Investors: stack with out-of-state owner to find buyers who may sell a house they have never seen.
  • Check the portfolio count: a buyer with several houses is a larger account.

Questions about new landlord purchase

What counts as a new landlord purchase?

A sale in the last 90 days where the buyer's mailing address is not the property address. Sales between family members, sheriff sales and transfers with no price are not counted.

Does the list include phone numbers?

LeadCounty keeps only public records. Tenant names are never stored and no phone numbers are sold.

Which counties have it?

Every county where the sale and the owner's mailing address are both in the county file. The table above lists them with this week's counts.
