177 of the open building leads already have the owner's mailing address. Live counts from City of Chicago and Cook County open data, updated twice a day.

Why contractors use it

Every lead comes with a reason to act now

The city cited the building for work your trade does. When a hearing is scheduled we show the date, and an owner facing a judge, or already fined, wants the repair done.

Mail the person who pays

Each building is matched to the owner's mailing address from Cook County property records, often somewhere other than the building, with how sure the match is.

One lead per building, nothing twice

Every open record at an address is grouped into one lead. The weekly email sends only what's new, and buildings come back only when the city cites them again.

Real leads from this week

Owner names and mailing streets are in the subscriber version, ready for a mail merge.
