Frequently Asked Questions
REISignal gives committed investors the high-quality data and insights they need to invest with confidence. We turn scattered, complex property information into practical, ready-to-use opportunities. Here are answers to the questions we hear most from first-time users exploring the platform.
Platform Access & Features
REISignal is a property intelligence platform built for investors who focus on tax liens, distressed assets, and auction-driven markets. It helps you move from a broad county list to a shortlist you can actually call on.
If you are new here, think of REISignal as three things in one:
- A discovery layer to browse county markets, signals, and sample properties before you commit.
- A research workspace to search by address or county, filter results, and open deep parcel records.
- An action layer to export lists, request photos, and track imagery orders when you are ready to move.
REISignal delivers property intelligence across five practical categories:
- Geographic data: latitude/longitude, parcel IDs, census tract info, and zoning details.
- Property characteristics: square footage, room count, stories, year built, and use codes.
- Financial data: debt amounts, appraised values, valuation type, and historical sale prices.
- Legal details: court case numbers, attorney contacts, sheriff sale dates, and defendant records.
- Owner contact data: mailing addresses (city, state, ZIP) for direct outreach and skip tracing.
Start your free trial to unlock the full dataset behind each property card.
Playground (free preview): Search an address or county and browse a limited set of nearby properties (up to 10 results per search). You can open property previews, explore county pages, and see which signals apply, but premium fields and parcel tabs stay locked.
PRO (subscription): Full access to the Dashboard with unlimited search depth, premium filters (ZIP, county-specific fields, signal types), unblurred parcel data, owner contact details, exports, and photo requests.
Use Playground to validate that a market fits your strategy. Upgrade to PRO when you are ready to run full due diligence and outreach.
Clicking a property card opens a quick preview modal, which is great for scanning many records fast. Choosing View Parcel opens the full Parcel Data Viewer with tabbed detail:
- Overview: summary facts, valuation context, and key identifiers.
- Building & Sales: structure details and transaction history.
- Location & Address: geocoded address and census geography.
- Links: external references tied to the parcel.
- Photos: request or view imagery when available.
Without a PRO subscription, most parcel tabs show a preview with blurred content and an upgrade prompt. The Photos tab remains accessible so you can evaluate imagery options.
All data is sourced from official legal, county, and financial records and refreshed on a regular cadence:
- Geographic data is cross-verified with official parcel systems.
- Financial figures come from county assessment and recording sources.
- Legal information is integrated with court and sale-calendar records where available.
- Signals are derived from documented events, not guesses, so you can trace why a property surfaced.
Always confirm sale dates, redemption windows, and owner status with county officials before bidding or making offers.
Signals are investor-ready flags that highlight why a property may deserve attention right now, such as owner deceased, mortgage stress, deep tax delinquency, open probate, or high equity.
Each signal includes:
- A plain-language trigger explaining what was detected.
- A confidence score and severity level.
- Suggested next steps for outreach or further research.
- A filter you can apply in PRO search to narrow your list.
Browse county pages to see which signals are active in a market, then use signal-type filters in the Dashboard to build a focused shortlist.
Property Research & Data Intelligence
PRO subscribers receive legal intelligence tied to each parcel, including:
- Attorney and trustee contacts when filed.
- Court case numbers and defendant details.
- Sheriff sale dates, minimum bids, and sale status where counties publish them.
- Liens and encumbrances that affect your bidding math.
Yes. PRO subscribers can view owner names and mailing addresses, enabling:
- Direct mail and phone outreach before auction.
- Pre-foreclosure or pre-sale negotiations.
- Skip tracing when the owner of record differs from the occupant.
Use contact data responsibly and in compliance with applicable outreach laws.
REISignal shows enough context in Playground to help you evaluate a market, while keeping sensitive owner, financial, and legal fields behind PRO.
As a non-subscriber you will see:
- Property previews with key headline fields and signal badges.
- Parcel viewer tabs with blurred content and a slim upgrade banner.
- Locked premium filters (ZIP, county-specific fields, signal types).

Geographic & Search Features
REISignal supports multiple entry points depending on where you are in your workflow:
- Address search: enter a street address from the homepage, Playground, or Dashboard to load nearby properties.
- County & state filters: narrow results to a target market.
- County pages: explore featured markets, live signal previews, and sample properties before searching.
- Map view: visualize mappable results and click chips to inspect individual parcels.
Basic filters (address, county, and state) are available to everyone. PRO unlocks advanced filters that help you build precise shortlists:
- ZIP code: target specific postal zones inside a county.
- County-specific fields: dynamic filters powered by each county's backend schema (varies by market).
- Signal types: show only properties flagged with signals you care about, such as owner deceased or high equity.
Premium filters appear in the Dashboard and Playground advanced filter panel. Locked filters show a readable preview so you know what unlocks with PRO.
Each county page is a market briefing, not just a property list. You'll find:
- An overview of the county's investor profile and coverage status.
- Signal definitions active in that market with examples.
- Live signal feed and filter previews showing how discovery works.
- Sample properties you can click to experience the preview flow.
Visit Counties from the main navigation to browse featured states, then drill into individual county routes.
Use Playground when: You are exploring a new market, sharing a quick demo, or validating that an address returns useful results. No account is required for basic preview.
Use the Dashboard when: You have a PRO subscription and need persistent search sessions, premium filters, bulk export, table and calendar views, and full parcel access.
Many investors start in Playground, then move the same address search into the Dashboard after upgrading.
