What each signal means
Code violations
The city cited the property for its condition. Landlords tired of repairs and owners who can't afford them both show up here.
Usually from: City code enforcement. Weight in Deal Radar's score: 14, halving every 180 days.
Vacant properties
No one lives there: registered vacant, cited as vacant, or flagged by the city.
Usually from: USPS vacancy, utility or city vacant registries. Weight in Deal Radar's score: 18, doesn't fade.
Liens and judgments
County recorder: mechanic's, HOA, tax liens
Usually from: County recorder: mechanic's, HOA, tax liens. Weight in Deal Radar's score: 12, halving every 365 days.
Permits
Work is being done: repairs, a remodel or a teardown, sometimes before a sale. A weak signal on its own.
Usually from: Building permits (pre-sale repairs). Weight in Deal Radar's score: 4, halving every 120 days.
Pre-foreclosures
The owner has fallen behind on the mortgage and the lender has started the process. Time is short and the subject is painful.
Usually from: County recorder: notice of default, lis pendens. Weight in Deal Radar's score: 35, halving every 120 days. Sensitive: never mentioned in outreach.
The public feeds
Louisville open property maintenance cases (occupied homes)Louisville-Jefferson County, KY
Property maintenance inspections of occupied buildings that ended in a violation notice, citation, emergency referral or hold, updated daily (about 5,300 open). Each inspection visit is its own row, so a case with repeat visits gives repeat signals. The owner and the owner's mailing address are in the feed, which makes out-of-town landlords easy to spot. Suburban cities inside Jefferson County are labelled Louisville; check the ZIP.
Louisville vacant, abandoned and condemned structuresLouisville-Jefferson County, KY
Buildings property maintenance inspectors found vacant, abandoned or condemned on a visit that did not close the case, updated daily (about 2,400). The owner and mailing address are in the feed. Vacant lots are left out. Each inspection visit is its own row.
Louisville code enforcement final orders (lien notices)Louisville-Jefferson County, KY
Code enforcement citations that became final orders (by hearing or because the owner did not appeal), which lien holders are notified of and which become liens on the property, updated daily (about 500 on the list; newest notice 2026-10). The detail is how the order became final and the fine. City, state and ZIP in this layer are the owner's mailing address, so the property city is set to Louisville.
Louisville residential alteration, foundation and wrecking permitsLouisville-Jefferson County, KY
Active permits for residential alterations and foundation repairs, and wrecking permits on residentially zoned lots, updated daily (about 2,750; newest issued 2026-10-30). Foundation repairs and teardowns are the stronger signals. No owner in the feed.
Louisville Metro vacant and abandoned property foreclosuresLouisville-Jefferson County, KY
Vacant and abandoned properties Louisville Metro is foreclosing on to collect its own code-enforcement and demolition liens, with the circuit court case number (about 17 open; the roughly 85 already sold are left out). Edited 2026-07 (newest action filed 2026-05). Small but strong: the owner is losing the house to the city. Never mention the foreclosure in outreach.
What isn't here
- Owner names, mailing addresses and phone numbers. Public pages show counts only; phones never come from these feeds.
- Probate and divorce filings. They sit with the courts and several states restrict them; inside Parcel they come in by upload.
- Records a city or county doesn't publish as open data. If yours has a feed we've missed, tell us and we'll check it.
