The Age of a Home

The age of a home can tell a lot about which features need to be replaced. Roofs, windows, driveways, decks, etc., all need to be replaced periodically. With PropStream, search by “Year Built” to uncover homes that may need to be serviced by a professional like yourself.

Length of Ownership

Similar to learning the age of a home, learning the length of ownership can help you uncover homeowners in need of a service provider. For example, if someone just bought a fixer-upper in the past year, they may be ready to start renovating it and need professional help.

Amount of Equity

Once homeowners have built up a fair amount of equity, they may be ready to take out a HELOC (Home Equity Line of Credit) or a Home Equity Loan to improve the property. If they'd like to outsource for their projects, you may want to put yourself first in line to help!

Property Characteristics

On PropStream, you can tailor your search to include features like pools, basements, and garages. A Google Maps view allows you to see the property's exterior. This is helpful if you offer pool-related services, lawn care services, etc. because you can target homeowners who would benefit from your offerings the most.

Which Homes Are Free and Clear

When a property is “free and clear,” the owner has paid off the property. Once the property is paid off, the owner may have the budget to pay for renovations they’ve been waiting on. With no mortgage payment, these homeowners may want to outsource for the renovations.

Find Customer Leads and Reach Out to Them in One Convenient Location

Once you’ve put together a solid list of leads, PropStream makes contractor marketing easier than ever.

Here’s how you can start your marketing campaign in 3 easy steps with PropStream's add-on tools:

  2. Skip Trace a List: Once you’ve built your lists, you can perform a skip trace, which can return up to four email addresses, landline phone numbers, and cell phone numbers for contacts with available information. 
  3. Choose Your Method of Communication: Within PropStream, you can send postcards and email campaigns in just minutes! Customize your messaging to fit specific marketing lists and track the email click-through rate right within the platform.
  4. Choose Your Plan: Lead Automator is included for free with Pro and Elite plans, or you can get two months free with the Annual Essentials plan. You'll also receive FREE skip tracing for the primary user and their team, with usage limited by the number of saved properties in the account and daily monitoring for up to 25,000 properties. Plans start at just $27/month, with the flexibility to scale as needed and easily update or import any of your lists.

Your Questions, Answered!

How can contractors get more leads without relying only on referrals?

Referrals are valuable, but they aren’t always consistent. A stronger strategy is to combine referrals with data-driven lead generation tools that provide access to fresh homeowner information.

What’s the best way to find homeowners who may need contractor services?

Looking at property data such as year built, ownership length, and home features (like pools, basements, or garages) can reveal which homeowners are most likely to need repairs, upgrades, or renovations.

Does PropStream provide free leads for contractors?

Yes. With Pro and Elite plans, PropStream includes Lead Automator and free skip tracing for the primary account, helping contractors monitor thousands of properties daily and access targeted leads at no extra cost. Additionally, PropStream’s 7-day free trial offers 50 free saves.

Which types of properties are most likely to need contractor work?

Older homes, fixer-uppers, and properties that are free and clear of mortgages are often the best candidates. These homeowners are more likely to plan repairs or invest in renovations.

How can contractors reach more potential clients in less time?

Direct mail, email campaigns, and digital outreach can be more efficient than door-to-door canvassing. Platforms like PropStream allow contractors to create targeted campaigns and track engagement in one place.

What’s the advantage of using lead generation software for contractors?

Lead generation software offers access to accurate, up-to-date homeowner data instead of relying on outdated purchased lists. It also streamlines the process by combining data management and marketing tools into a single system.

Can PropStream help find homeowners with the budget for renovations?

Yes. PropStream includes filters for high-equity and free-and-clear properties, allowing contractors to prioritize homeowners financially positioned to invest in larger projects.

How do contractors know which neighborhoods are worth marketing to?

Analyzing property and market trends helps reveal areas where demand is strongest. PropStream’s analytics provide insights into rental rates, equity growth, and turnover, making it easier to target high-opportunity neighborhoods.

What’s the best way for contractors to organize marketing lists?

Segmenting lists by property characteristics or service type makes outreach more effective. For example, separate lists can be created for homes with pools, aging roofs, or large yards, depending on the services offered.

How can contractors grow their business long-term?

Sustained growth comes from maintaining a steady flow of qualified leads and consistent outreach. Tools like PropStream support this by automating lead updates, offering skip tracing, and providing flexible marketing options.
