Common questions

What is a farm report?

A geographic-farming prospecting report for one ZIP code, built for real-estate agents. It ranks the households most likely to list soon (top 50 per county, scored 0–100 with every point explained), shows the market picture — turnover, hold times, investor and absentee ownership — and compares the ZIP to its neighbors, so you know where your marketing dollars work hardest.

Where does the data come from?

Public county appraisal rolls and recorded deed records — for ZIP 78656, the Hays, Caldwell county appraisal data shown in the coverage note on this page. Every number is computed from the records themselves; nothing is estimated or purchased from a data broker. Texas does not disclose sale prices, so values are county appraisal values.

Are all property owners included?

No. Owners whose records are confidential under Texas Tax Code §25.025 (judges, peace officers, crime victims, and others) are excluded from the report entirely, and the report is not a consumer report — it may not be used for tenant, employment, or credit screening.
