Tips to Improve Your Skip Trace ROI
Verify Input Data Quality
Adding owner name + mailing address improves match rates. Clean your list before submitting to maximize hit rates.
Hit Rate vs Accuracy
Hit rate is data returned; phone accuracy is working phones. A high hit rate with low accuracy wastes money on bad numbers.
Account for DNC Filtering
10-20% of valid phones may be on Do Not Call lists or belong to known litigators. Always scrub before calling.
Skip the Skip Trace Hassle Entirely
8020REI delivers pre-traced, precision-targeted lists with verified phone numbers included. No provider juggling, no manual uploads — just ready-to-dial contacts of property owners most likely to sell.
