About FlaggedLeads

FlaggedLeads is code violation lead software that turns municipal code-enforcement records into ranked off-market seller leads for real estate wholesalers and acquisition investors. Skyler Bissell founded the company in 2026 in Seattle, Washington, and still runs it. As of September 26, 2026 the system tracks 317,770 code-violation cases on 133,981 properties across 13 cities in Washington and Minnesota, refreshed from municipal open-data feeds every morning. The Pro plan is $99 per month with a 14-day free trial and no card required.

What FlaggedLeads Does

Daily code-violation ingest

FlaggedLeads pulls new and updated code-enforcement cases from each city's open-data feed every morning and normalizes the addresses so every case lands on one parcel. A case the city publishes on Monday is usually on the map by Tuesday morning.

Deal Score distress ranking

Every property gets a Deal Score built from case volume, case type, open status, and recency, with vacant-building, emergency, and land-use cases weighted highest and construction cases treated as a negative signal. The top of the list is the properties with the densest distress signals, which is where a mail or call budget should go first. 18,923 properties carry a score today.

Owner mailing-address match and absentee flag

FlaggedLeads cross-references each flagged parcel with the county assessor's tax-billing address and compares it to the property address. 85% of scored leads (16,090 of 18,923) have a mailing address on file, and of those, 59% are absentee owned (the tax bill goes somewhere other than the property), including 961 that bill to a PO Box.

Map and ranked-list dashboard

The web app at app.flaggedleads.com shows every flagged property on a map beside a sortable lead table, with filters for city, ZIP, case type, owner type, and recency, and a detail panel for each address with its full case history. Investors can work a whole metro or one ZIP without exporting anything.

CSV export and enrichment upload

Pro subscribers export any filtered view to CSV for direct mail, skip tracing, or a CRM, and can upload a PropStream CSV export to have every address matched against the violation database. A list built elsewhere comes back with the code-enforcement history attached.

Stacked signals (Seattle only)

In Seattle, FlaggedLeads also ingests fire incidents (2,859 on file), building permits including expired ones (13,175), and distress-adjacent 311 complaints such as dumping, overgrown lots, and encampments (253,044 requests). A property with a violation, a fire call, and an expired permit stacks three independent distress signals at one address. These feeds exist for Seattle only today.

What Makes FlaggedLeads Different

Code violations are the lead source

PropStream, DealMachine, BatchLeads, and PropertyRadar build their lists from licensed county assessor and recorder files. None of the four ingest municipal code-enforcement records. FlaggedLeads starts from those records and adds ownership on top.

Fresh every morning from the city's own feed

FlaggedLeads reads each city's open-data feed daily, so a case the city publishes on Monday is scored and on the map Tuesday. The 13 live feeds had cases dated through September 26, 2026 on the day this page was written.

One price, every signal included

FlaggedLeads Pro is $99 per month per metro and includes Deal Scores, owner mailing addresses, and CSV export for every covered city in that metro. PropStream Essentials is also $99, DealMachine Basic is $99 per seat, and BatchLeads Growth and PropertyRadar Solo are $119, each with metered contact data or paid add-ons. FlaggedLeads charges no add-on fees.

Distress shows up in enforcement records first

By the time a property lands on a pre-foreclosure, tax-delinquency, or probate list, every list vendor is selling the same address. A code violation, and especially a vacant-building or emergency order, is filed earlier in the same slide. 25,429 cases are open right now across the 13 cities, and 1,404 of them are vacant-building cases.

The Team Behind FlaggedLeads

FlaggedLeads was founded in 2026 by Skyler Bissell, a Seattle real estate investor, after he noticed that every city he invested in published its code-enforcement cases and almost no investor read them. The company is headquartered in Seattle, Washington, and Skyler is the only team member. Here is the story in his words.

I'm Skyler. I live in Seattle and work a full-time job while looking for off-market real estate deals. Mostly the kind of deals you find by driving for dollars across the city until something distressed catches your eye.

Then I became a dad and had to rethink my approach.

I didn't quit searching for deals. I just couldn't keep touring the city looking for distressed properties. So I started reading public records. The City of Seattle publishes every code violation it issues: vacant building flags, emergency orders, land use complaints. Owners under stress leave a trail in those records long before the property ever hits MLS. It's all there. Most investors don't read it because the data is buried in different city portals and the spreadsheets are awful.

FlaggedLeads is the system I built to read it for me. Every morning it pulls the latest violations, scores each property by distress signal density, and surfaces the ones most likely to belong to a motivated seller. No driving. No spreadsheets. Just a ranked list, on a map.

If you're an off-market investor working leads like this, I'd genuinely like to compare notes. LinkedIn, or reach out here.

How FlaggedLeads Works

FlaggedLeads is a web application at app.flaggedleads.com. There is nothing to install. A new user starts a 14-day free trial with an email address and a password, no card required, and can explore available owner details and scoring for their selected metro and its covered cities. Trial exports include up to 100 rows per download.

Each morning the pipeline pulls new cases from every live city's feed, matches them to parcels and owner mailing addresses, re-scores each property, and updates the map and lead table. Subscribers work leads in the dashboard or export a CSV for their mail house, dialer, or CRM.

Billing runs through Stripe at $99 per month, month to month, and a subscriber can cancel at any time from the billing link inside the app. Support is by email at support@flaggedleads.com and is answered by the founder. Investors who want a city added can request it from the cities page. Comparisons with other tools live in the compare section, and the guides cover how to read and work code-violation data.
