Where to buy probate leads for your county
Monthly inherited-home files, sold one county at a time.USLeadList sells monthly county files of inherited-home leads, meaning homes whose owner has died. Files are matched from death records and property records, usually about five weeks after the death. Files cover 3,143 counties at standard rates of $1.30 to $1.80 a lead. No more than three USLeadList subscribers receive the same lead.
This is not a court-file probate list. USLeadList does not sell filed court cases, and the county file has no case numbers, executor names, filing dates, attorneys or court documents. A name on the file is not proof of who can sell the home. The three-subscriber limit covers USLeadList subscribers only, so other investors can find the same property elsewhere.
Probate leads by county across every state
Each row of the table covers a state, plus Washington, DC, and shows how many counties are on file and how many are sold out right now. Clicking a state name takes you to that state's page, where every county is listed.

Records a month shows each state's average monthly total over the last 12 months, taken from the Inheritance Property Index.
County volume differs. Large counties produce far more records than small ones, and some small counties average fewer than one a month.
How to see if your county is covered
- Go to the quote page, choose your state, then choose your county on the map. The quote shows that county's monthly count and its price.
- Alternatively, pick a state from the table above. The state page lists every county, and each county page shows its 12-month average of new records a month and how many of the three subscriber spots are open.
- If all three spots are taken, the county is sold out. Join the waitlist at no cost, and the sold-out list shows which counties are full right now.
What county probate leads cost
Standard rates are $1.30 to $1.80 a lead, and the rate depends on the subscription term. Larger counties carry a per-lead volume discount. Each county page and the quote show that county's exact rate, and a quote is held for 30 days. Skip tracing is an add-on at $0.15 a lead. The pricing page lists current rates.
- 12-month subscription: $1.30 per lead
- 6-month subscription: $1.40 per lead
- 3-month subscription: $1.50 per lead
- One-time list: $1.80 per lead
- Skip tracing add-on: $0.15 per lead
The three-subscriber limit and sold-out counties
No more than three USLeadList subscribers get the same lead. That limit applies to USLeadList subscribers only, so other investors may locate the same property through other sources.
A county is sold out when all three subscriber spots are taken. The waitlist costs nothing, and when a spot opens our team sees who is waiting. The sold-out counties page lists sold-out counties.
What is in a county file
Every county file covers inherited homes, which are homes whose owner has died, and it includes homes held in living trusts. It does not include executor names, case numbers, filing dates, attorneys, or court documents.

How county files differ from court probate lists
A home shows up on a court probate list only after someone files a case. Homes held in living trusts usually stay off court probate lists. Court probate lists come from the county probate court itself or from companies that sell court-file lists. Our probate leads page compares court-file probate lists with USLeadList data, and a separate guide has eight probate lead companies compared.
