Pre-mover lists and data for Canada

Your customer is loyal
moving.
You have weeks.

PreMovers.ca supplies pre-mover lists for Canada: the mailing addresses of homes that have just gone up for sale, picked up within days of the listing and updated every week.

Change-of-address new-mover lists tell you who already left. PreMovers tells you who's about to.

If you're reaching out after the move, you're already late.

Every one of them about to renegotiate every recurring relationship they have — their bank, their insurer, their telecom, their utility.

Weekly averages, 16 Oct 2025 to 15 Oct 2026.

The shift

Reach them days after the listing, not after the move.

We pick up new listings within days of a home going on the market, so your mail lands while the household is still choosing movers, cleaners, banks, insurers and internet. Change-of-address lists only arrive after the household has moved, when most of those choices are already made.

Change-of-address lists

The legacy new-mover list

Built from change-of-address records, utility hookups, and post-sale registrations. They surface the move after it has happened, long after the decision window has closed.

  • Data arrives weeks after the move
  • Household has already chosen their providers
  • Everyone else in your category got the same list
  • Acquisition cost is high, conversion is low

Pre-mover intelligence

Built from the weekly Canadian listings lifecycle. Households flagged the moment the signal appears — not after the signs come down.

  • Households flagged weekly, as listings go live
  • Reach them before they lock in providers
  • Earlier window, less saturated competitive field
  • Lower acquisition cost, higher conversion rates
The timing

The 10-week gap nobody's closing

A home is listed. Weeks pass. It comes off the market. The move happens. Services switch. A month or two after all that, change-of-address data finally sees any of it. Everything your funnel could do with that signal has to happen in the gap between the first two.

Before the move
Planning phase
Invisible to every data provider, ours included.
The listing goes live
Property lists
Real-world signal exists. No mover-data provider has seen it yet.
Within days
We flag it
The listing is caught within days of going public. Within days it's in your Snowflake account, MCP endpoint, or file drop.
Weeks later
Listing activity peaks
Price changes, status updates, offer activity. The signal sharpens. Every change tracked by our pipeline.
Moving day
The physical move
Services activate at the new address.
A month or two later
Change-of-address data catches up
Legacy new-mover records finally surface. Whatever happened in the gap has already happened.

The gap is measured in weeks. We close it to days.

Who uses it

When timing decides who gets the customer

Whatever your window looks like, we get you the signal inside it. Within days of the listing — not weeks after the move.

Banking & Lending
Mortgage and HELOC prospects flagged before the application lands on a competitor's desk. Retention flags weeks before discharge.
Days after it lists
Telecom
Get in front of the switch before the incumbent sends the retention offer. Win the new address.
Days after it lists
Insurance
A move resets the home-and-auto relationship. Quote the replacement policy first, not third.
Days after it lists
Direct Marketing
Movers' budgets are loaded and short. Reach them while the spend is still open and the mailbox is still being read.
Days after it lists
Services & Home
Movers, cleaners, renovators, furniture. The intent window is narrow and loud. Be in it.
Days after it lists
Home Security & Smart Home
You can't install security on a house they're leaving. Catch them choosing the next one.
Days after it lists

FAQ

Questions we get before the first call

What is a pre-mover list?
A list of mailing addresses for homes that have just gone up for sale. The people living there are weeks away from moving, so it is the moment they choose movers, cleaners, banks, insurers and internet providers. We pick up new listings within days of a home going on the market.
How is this different from change-of-address new-mover lists?
Change-of-address lists are built from records made after the move: change-of-address filings, utility hookups and post-sale registrations. They arrive weeks after the household has moved and most choices are made. A pre-mover list reaches the household before the move.
How much does a pre-mover mailing list cost?
Standard lists are $150 CAD per 1,000 homes and Plus lists are $250 CAD per 1,000 homes. The minimum order is $75 (500 homes). Enterprise feeds through Snowflake, MCP or flat files are priced by geography, volume and term.
What's in the file?
Every list has the mailing address of each home: street address, unit, city, province and postal code. Plus adds the date the home came on the market, the date it came off, its status, the asking price, bedrooms, bathrooms, type of home and floor size exactly as listed. No names, phone numbers or email addresses.
Can I get a list for my city?
Yes. Lists are available by province, city, postal area (the first three characters of a postal code) or a radius around your own postal code. See pre-mover lists by city and province.
Where does the data come from?
Our own pipeline. BrightCat Data has captured Canadian residential listings every week since 2014. Every address is checked against Canada Post address data and only mailable addresses go into a list.
How often is it updated?
Every week. Mailing lists are cut from the latest weekly data. Enterprise feeds arrive every week in your Snowflake account, MCP endpoint or as a flat file.
Is this compliant with Canadian privacy law?
The signal is the public listing, not household records. We supply property and address data only: no names, phone numbers or email addresses. Enterprise buyers in banking, telecom and insurance have licensed this data from us since 2014, and we walk privacy teams through PIPEDA and Quebec Law 25 reviews.
Who is BrightCat?
BrightCat Data Ltd. runs PreMovers.ca. BrightCat has tracked the Canadian residential and commercial property market every week since 2014 and supplies listing, rental and commercial data to enterprise clients. brightcatdata.com
