Lead Types in St. Louis City

Pre-Foreclosure

Homeowners in St. Louis City named in a foreclosure filing who still hold the deed. This is the window before the auction, while an equity sale is still on the table. Owner and property data from public records.

Divorce

Divorcing owners in St. Louis City with real property to divide. The home is usually the largest shared asset and has to be sold or bought out, often on the court's timeline. Owner and property data from public records.

Probate

Open probate cases in St. Louis City with real property in the estate. Heirs often look to sell rather than manage, maintain, or carry the taxes on an inherited home. Owner and property data from public records.

Guardianship

Court-appointed guardianship cases in St. Louis City involving the real property of an incapacitated owner. A guardian usually needs the court's approval to sell it. Owner and property data from public records.

Tax Sale

Owners who fell behind on their property taxes in St. Louis City, with a tax sale now moving against the home. The clock is running before the sale is final and some still hold equity, so some look to sell first. Owner and property data from public records.

Partition

Pre-Probate

St. Louis City's recently deceased homeowners whose estate has not yet entered probate: the period after a death and before an estate is opened. Reach the family before a probate attorney is retained and before the home is listed. Owner and property data from public records.

About St. Louis City

St. Louis City ranks among Missouri’s biggest counties by population, and the U.S. Census numbers show why it matters for deal flow: U.S. Census data puts St. Louis City at roughly 173,900 housing units, 45% owner-occupied, with a median home value of $185,100, which gives you a real, sourced read on the market you’d be buying into.

What makes the St. Louis City market different

  • St. Louis City has an older housing stock: 58% of homes were built before 1940, against 12% nationally. Older homes more often need repairs, a common reason an heir or a stretched owner sells as-is.
  • 17% of housing units in St. Louis City stand vacant, against 10% nationally. An empty house still carries taxes, insurance and upkeep, and owners who inherited one or moved away are often ready to talk about selling.
  • Only 43% of homes in St. Louis City are single-family detached houses (U.S.: 61%). Apartments, attached homes and mobile homes make up more of the housing, so check the property type before you value a deal.
  • HUD sets the fair market rent for a 3-bedroom home for the St. Louis, MO-IL area at $1,731 a month, against a median home value of $185K in St. Louis City. Set those two side by side to judge whether a buy-and-hold rental pencils out before you make an offer.
