What customers say

"We validated BatchData's skip tracing against information our users provided, and the results were overwhelmingly positive, with around an 80% correct hit rate."
Sam Rogers
Product Manager, Left Main REI
"We interviewed a lot of data providers and chose BatchData because it had the highest-quality data. It's given us a real moat: our competitors rely on scraped data and are one update away from losing it all. On top of that, the team responds within moments every time I reach out."
Timothy Serpe
Owner, CitiAtlas
"One of the biggest reasons we chose BatchData is simplicity. With other providers, every property pull meant five or six different endpoints. With BatchData, it's one. That makes it faster and far easier to build on."
Neil Terc
President, Sucasa

Skip tracing FAQ

What is skip tracing?

BatchData skip tracing is the search for the contact details of a person you need to reach. You send a property address and get back the owners' phone numbers, email addresses and mailing address. Real estate investors, agents, roofers, title companies and legal services teams use it to reach the owner of a property.

How does a BatchData skip trace work?

A BatchData skip trace starts from a property address and matches the address to the property and its owners. It returns up to 3 people for each property, with their phones, emails and mailing address. People Data describes the fields for each person, and each phone carries its own DNC flag and TCPA flag.

How much does skip tracing cost?

BatchData bills skip tracing per matched record, and pay-as-you-go pricing is available. A property with no match costs nothing. You can also choose a monthly plan from 100,000 to 3,000,000 skip traces per month. A data expert can price the plan that fits your volume.

Can you skip trace an LLC or a trust?

Yes, BatchData returns people for an LLC, a corporation or a trust. It matches through the owner mailing address first, then the property address, not the company name. BatchData does not certify that these people own the entity.

What compliance checks come with a skip trace?

Each phone in a BatchData skip trace result shows a Do Not Call flag and a TCPA flag. Your team can check both before it calls. The result also carries a litigator flag on each person. Your team decides how to use these flags, and it holds the TCPA and Do Not Call obligations.

What is the difference between single and bulk skip tracing?

Single skip tracing looks up one property at a time through the API. Bulk skip tracing runs a whole list, with up to 100 properties per request. You can also send the list as a file, and BatchData returns it with phones and emails added.

Do I need a developer to skip trace?

No, you do not need a developer to skip trace a list. Send a file of addresses, and the file comes back with phones and emails added. Developers use the skip trace API to add owner contacts to their own software, one property or a whole list at a time.

What do I need to send for a skip trace?

A BatchData skip trace takes a property address, or a parcel number (APN) with its county and state. You can add the owner's name to the input. BatchData matches the input to the property and its owners. Each match returns up to 3 people per property.

Is skip tracing legal?

BatchData does not decide whether your use of skip tracing is lawful, and you hold that obligation. The TCPA and Do Not Call rules apply to how you contact people. BatchData marks each phone number with DNC and TCPA flags to help your team follow them.
