It is a concentrated market: DuPage County alone accounts for 65% of what we have worked in Illinois.
How foreclosure works in Illinois, and why it changes the list
Illinois runs foreclosures through the courts, and a case can sit on the docket for one to three years. We generally find pre-foreclosure records here go stale or quietly resolve, so most of what we work in Illinois is tax lien and tax delinquent rather than pre-foreclosure.

Illinois questions
How many seller leads do you have in Illinois?
13 unclaimed as of the last check, from 86 we have worked across 2 counties in Illinois. The number on this page is read live from our inventory rather than written into the text, so it reflects what is actually on the board.
What kind of Illinois lists do these leads come from?
Mostly tax lien (62) and tax delinquent (24). We pull county tax records rather than buying a recycled list, and each seller has already replied to a text before the lead reaches the board.
Which Illinois counties do you cover?
DuPage, Will. Coverage follows where the county data is usable, so it is uneven by design — some counties publish good tax records and some publish very little.
Do you have pre-foreclosure leads in Illinois?
Rarely, and deliberately. Illinois runs foreclosures through the courts, where a case can sit for one to three years — long enough that the filing often no longer reflects the owner's situation. We would rather work tax lien and tax delinquent records here than sell a pre-foreclosure list that looks live and is not.
What do I actually receive when I claim one?
The seller’s name, his or her phone number, the property address, and the text conversation that already happened — including what he or she said about the property. You are picking up a conversation, not starting one.
