What is InheritedData?
InheritedData is a real estate data platform specializing in exclusive, real-time information on inherited properties across the U.S. Founded in 2019 by Ernest Johansmeier, who brings over 25 years of experience in real estate and finance, the company offers a unique data source known as Private Placement Data—unpublished death and property records available within 24–48 hours of a homeowner’s passing.
Subscribers receive access to InheritedDataPRO, a CRM platform that includes skip tracing for up to five relatives, title search details, and integrations with tools like PhoneBurner. The service also provides coaching, training, and system setup to help users build a consistent pipeline of motivated seller leads. By offering this data months before probate filings become public, InheritedData gives real estate professionals a significant head start over competitors.
Why InheritedData?
InheritedData.com offers a unique resource for real estate professionals by providing exclusive, real-time data on inherited properties across the United States. This platform is particularly valuable for research and business development in the real estate sector due to several key features:
Access to Exclusive Private Placement Data
InheritedData utilizes a proprietary data source that delivers death notifications within 24–48 hours after an individual’s passing. This information includes details such as the deceased’s name, date of birth, date of death, last known mailing address, and associated real estate holdings. Unlike public probate records, this data is unpublished and exclusive to InheritedData clients, offering a 3–6 month lead time before properties enter the public probate process.
Each record in the InheritedData system includes extensive property details, such as ownership information, market and assessed values, mortgage data, lien holders, lot size, and square footage. Additionally, the platform provides contact information for up to five of the closest relatives, including phone numbers, email addresses, and mailing addresses, facilitating direct outreach to potential sellers.
Subscribers gain access to InheritedDataPRO, a comprehensive application that functions as a CRM and includes features like a download center, help center, and knowledge base. The platform also offers integrations with tools such as PhoneBurner for cold calling, enhancing prospecting efficiency. Furthermore, InheritedData provides personalized coaching, training, and technical support to help users effectively leverage the data and tools available.
Competitive Advantage in the Real Estate Market
By accessing inherited property data before it becomes publicly available through probate filings, users can engage with motivated sellers ahead of competitors. This early access allows for the establishment of rapport and negotiation of deals without the pressure of a crowded market, potentially leading to a higher success rate in securing property contracts.
InheritedData.com serves as a valuable tool for real estate professionals seeking to identify and engage with potential property sellers before properties enter the public probate process. Its exclusive data, comprehensive property and heir information, advanced tools, and supportive services provide a significant advantage in the competitive real estate market.
