How It Works

Custom counts help guide the order.

Use your criteria to estimate available record volume before you purchase data or plan a mailing.

How to Order a Tax Lien Mailing List

Ordering a federal or state tax lien mailing list begins with a custom count. Before you purchase data or plan a mailing, Information Technologies Inc. helps you define the market you want to reach and estimate the available record volume that matches your criteria.

This process is designed to help tax-resolution firms and related financial service providers make practical decisions before committing to a campaign.

Order Process

Six practical steps

The process moves from criteria to count, then from order details to data delivery or mailing support.

01

Define Your Target Market

Start by deciding which tax lien records are most relevant to your campaign.

Useful targeting details include:

  • States or counties you want to cover
  • Federal IRS tax liens, state tax liens, or both
  • Individual tax lien records, business tax lien records, or both
  • Filing date range or recent filing period
  • Recent records, newly available records, or a broader historical date range
  • Minimum or maximum lien amount
  • One-time campaign or recurring updates
  • Whether you need data only or direct mail support

If you are not sure which criteria to use, we can help you narrow the request based on your campaign goals and expected mailing volume.

02

Request a Custom Count

After you provide your targeting criteria, we use those criteria to prepare a custom count. The count gives you an estimate of how many records may be available for your selected market and criteria.

A count request helps answer important planning questions before you order:

  • Is there enough volume in the selected market?
  • Should the geography be expanded or narrowed?
  • Should the lien amount range be adjusted?
  • Should the filing period focus on recent records or a broader historical range?
  • Would a one-time order or recurring update schedule make more sense?
  • Is the campaign large enough for printing and mailing support?

Availability may vary by state, record type, and compliance requirements.

03

Review Your Options

Once the count is prepared, you can review the available volume and decide how you want to proceed. Some customers begin with a smaller test campaign. Others build a larger campaign across several states or counties.

At this stage, we can also discuss file format, delivery timing, recurring update options, and whether you want Information Technologies Inc. to assist with design, printing, mail merge, or mailing.

04

Place Your Order

After the criteria are confirmed, your list is prepared according to the approved selection details. Tax lien mailing lists are typically delivered in practical formats such as CSV or Excel so they can be used for mail merge, CRM import, spreadsheet review, or internal campaign planning.

If you need a specific field order, file layout, or delivery format, let us know before processing begins.

05

Use the Data or Launch the Mailing

You can use the delivered data with your own internal marketing systems, or you can choose optional direct mail support.

For customers who want help with the full campaign, Information Technologies Inc. can assist with:

  • Letter and mail-piece design
  • Mail merge preparation
  • Printing
  • Envelope preparation
  • Postcards, letters, brochures, and inserts
  • Postage and mailing logistics
  • Follow-up mailing coordination

The goal is to give you a practical path from tax lien record selection to campaign execution without unnecessary vendor handoffs.

06

Plan Future Updates

If your campaign depends on a regular flow of new tax lien records, recurring updates may be a better fit than a one-time purchase. Update frequency can be based on your selected market, expected monthly volume, and campaign schedule.

Recurring updates are designed to include newly available records that match your criteria since the prior delivery, helping keep your outreach current and reducing unnecessary overlap.
