Frequently Asked Questions
Why should I buy the database if I can view the same data using the search engine?
First, it would take forever to manually copy all of the data in our database by using the search engines and FSBO Sites. We add names and phone numbers then organize this data in way for you to easily market your services.
What kinds of FSBO databases do you sell?
Our complete US FSBO Database includes over 30,000 for sale by owners. This number of course changes monthly. The complete list has been divided into state and City. We also sell FSBO Database by the State.
How do you deliver the data once it is purchased?
The data can be downloaded immediately after purchasing from the order confirmation page. The full-record complete database can be downloaded in a zip format which contains: Microsoft Excel (.XLS), and Microsoft Comma-Delimited (.CSV).
What guarantee do you give on the quality of your databases?
The data is guaranteed to be 95% accurate. Properties have around 70-80% names and phone numbers. Not all have each or may have one or the other. FSBO’s change daily so we are continually updating weekly.
What are the restrictions on the use of the databases?
The “terms of use” agreement always appears on the checkout page but can be summarized simply as follows: the purchaser is entitled to use the data repeatedly for marketing or internal purposes but cannot resell the data nor publish it so that non-customers can benefit from the data.
How do you monitor and enforce restrictions on the use of the databases?
Due to concerns about low-priced competitors misappropriating our data, we have populated (“seeded”) our list with a small number of fictitious agents. The contact information for these homes redirects to us so we can verify that the sender is one of our legitimate customers.
How often do you update your data and do you provide discounts for updates?
We are continuously updating on a weekly basis.
Do you provide free samples of your data?
Yes, please email us what state you would like a sample of and we will send you 15 FSBO’s for your state.
How do I unzip a file or folder?
If you receive a Zip file, you need to uncompressed or unzip the file to use it.
- Double-click on the Zip file.
- It should expand automatically.
- A file or folder with the same name (without the Zip) should appear.
- Drag the contents of the Zip file to the desktop (or another location). When you do this, you will be copying the information from the Zip file to the computer. This will be your working copy of the email list from the Zip file.
- Close the Zip file window. You may keep the Zip file or delete it.
