I buy mailing lists for target marketing.... active adult community homes to be sold require a mailing list of 55+ to 80 years old who own a home.... that's how I sold out several 55+ communities with direct mail marketing for open house events.... just saying!

and I buy them from Experian...

We have never purchased a mailing list. Like Lynnea Miller said, we have gotten targeted lists from the Title Company on a few occasions when doing specific target farming, which is rare for us. -Kasey
