Dark bars count dated records in the last 30 days; grey bars, standing lists. A "+" means the count reached the pull limit, so there are at least that many. Counts are of records matching Deal Radar's filters (open, residential, recent), not every record in the dataset.

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.

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.

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.

Usually from: Your own list. Weight in Deal Radar's score: 5, halving every 180 days.

The public feeds (5)

  • Lee County open nuisance accumulation violationsLee County, FL (unincorporated)

    Open nuisance accumulation cases (junk, trash, debris, overgrowth) from Lee County code enforcement in unincorporated areas such as Lehigh Acres, North Fort Myers and Fort Myers, updated daily (about 600 open). The detail is the case stage (In Violation, Certified Notice Sent, Hearing Scheduled). Cases that went to a lien are in the Lee County nuisance liens feed. No owner names.

  • Lee County nuisance abatement liensLee County, FL (unincorporated)

    Nuisance accumulation cases where the county cleaned up the property or fined the owner and recorded a lien that is still open (about 1,300, mostly Lehigh Acres and Fort Myers), updated daily. Many are vacant lots, so check for a house before outreach. No owner names.

  • Cape Coral open code enforcement casesCape Coral, FL

    Open and liened code cases for property maintenance, sanitation and overgrowth (including vacant houses), dangerous or dilapidated buildings, unsecured pools and unpermitted work (about 1,500), updated daily. Owner names and mailing addresses come from the parcel record, so absentee owners stand out. Includes some cases opened years ago that are still in lien status.

  • Cape Coral foreclosure registrationsCape Coral, FL

    Properties registered with the city's foreclosure registry after a lender started foreclosing, still open (about 290, newest 2026-10-29), updated daily. The owner and mailing address are the current deed holder from the parcel record. Check the court case before outreach, and never mention the foreclosure in messages.

  • Cape Coral delinquent utility shut-offsCape Coral, FL

    Water service turned off by the city utility for an unpaid bill (about 3,200 work orders, newest 2026-10-29), updated daily. A shut-off can mean money trouble or an empty house, but the account may be a tenant's, so treat it as a weak signal best stacked with others. One row per work order, so the same home can repeat.

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.

Questions

From 5 public open-data portals run by the cities, counties or state, queried directly with the same filters Deal Radar uses (open, residential, recent records). Each feed's source is linked on this page.

They are pulled again every day. The portals themselves update on their own schedules, from daily to quarterly, noted for each feed.

Not on this public page. Inside Parcel, Deal Radar shows each property with its signals and score for the farm areas you choose.

No. Live feeds run in 124 markets, and anywhere else you can upload lists and get the same scoring, alerts and outreach.
