PropStream’s nationwide property data is multi-sourced from county recordings, MLS records, and private data sources, giving you access to the most comprehensive and accurate database available of over 160 million properties.

PropStream provides daily updates to:

• MLS Listings (Sales, Failed Listings, Active, Pending, and Contingent Listings)
• Pre-foreclosure Filings and Public Auctions
• Foreclosed Properties & Real Estate Owned (REO)
• Vacant Properties
• Tax Liens
• HOA & Mechanic’s Liens
• Cash Buyers
• High Equity
• Free & Clear Properties
• Non-Owner Occupied Properties
• Bankruptcy Filings
• Divorce Filings
• Deceased Owners
• Linked Properties
• Flippers
• “Zombie” Foreclosures
• Rental Values
• Mortgage Information
• Senior Owners
• Tired Landlords
• Upside down properties

No. A small number of counties across the U.S. restrict certain information from Public Records, such as bedroom and bathroom counts.

Non-disclosure states (Alaska, Idaho, Kansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri (some counties), Montana, New Mexico, North Dakota, Texas, Utah and Wyoming) eliminate the sales price from being publicly available, requiring all companies that are not Agents/Brokers to create an estimated sales price using logic and market intelligence.

• MLS data is updated daily
• Vacant data is updated monthly
• Tax Assessor updates annually (some counties update more frequently)

Yes. PropStream pulls data directly from the county tax assessor. The property classification (i.e., Property Type or County Land Use Codes) identifies the type of property. In a lot of areas, the counties will classify the properties as:

• Duplex (2 units)
• Triplex (3 units)
• Quad Plex (4 units)
• Multi-family (5+)
• Multi-family (10+)

The counties also have counts broken out by residential and commercial. However, some counties may not populate that information in their public records.

• Owner obtained permits and made legal/permitted upgrades, and the county has not yet updated it.
• Owner did not legally pull a permit, so it will never be reported to the county.
• An agent entered/mis-keyed the wrong information into the MLS.

Yes, PropStream now offers Free DNC scrubbing. Our PropStream Skip Trace DNC flag includes known litigators: (a) Federal & State Do Not Call Lists (b) Government Numbers, (c) Attorney Numbers, (d) Anti Telemarketing Groups, (e) Plaintiffs of litigation, and Pre-Litigation cases. *PropStream engages an independent third party to perform skip-tracing.

PropStream engages with an independent third-party service provider to perform skip tracing. This ensures compliance with industry standards and legal requirements.

The Sale Amount is the purchase price of the physical property – what the Buyer paid for the house. We do not know if the wholesale fee is included.

Use the “Date added to List” column header within the My Properties page.

If you have upgraded to a plan with Lead Automator or added Lead Automator to your plan, you can automate marketing lists that you have saved and PropStream will automatically add and remove properties that meet or no longer meet your criteria.

No, unused saves do not carry over. Each month your account automatically refreshes with the full number of saves included in your specific plan. If you run out of saves, you can make one-time purchases to obtain additional saves.

The Assumable Mortgages Lead List helps real estate investors find properties with potentially assumable financing in one click. It identifies properties with open FHA, VA, or USDA loans and displays the loan type, estimated loan balance, and estimated interest rate on each result. You can find it under Filters → Lead Lists → Assumable Mtg. on the Search and My Properties pages.

In PropStream, use the Assumable Mortgages Lead List under the Lead Lists section of the Filters menu. The list identifies properties where every open loan is FHA, VA, or USDA, helping you find potential assumable loan opportunities and potentially below-market financing. You can then layer additional PropStream filters to narrow your results by criteria such as equity, property type, location, or other investment factors.

You can search by State, County, City, ZIP Code(s) (up to 5 ZIP codes at a time), a specific address, or APN (Assessor’s Parcel Number). You can also use the draw search feature to draw a radius around the area you would like to search in.

Yes! PropStream’s State Search feature lets you search for properties across an entire state directly from the Property Search bar. Simply enter the state and select the suggestion labeled “State.” You can then narrow your results using PropStream’s 165+ filters to find properties that fit your criteria.

Yes, use the following format: APN# (Exact APN), County, State.

To import a large list and refresh with the latest information, you will need to upgrade your subscription to include Lead Automator. You can then import the same number of records as the subscription level you chose allows. If you require more records, you can either upgrade your Lead Automator subscription or purchase additional records for a small fee from within the Add-On Services section within the PropStream settings tab.

If you want to import a large list for marketing purposes only, import the same number of records as your subscription level allows from within the Contacts tab.

To combine multiple automated lists into another list, click on “Actions” from the drop-down menu, then select “Add to Automated List”. Or simply use your mouse to drag and drop one list into another. The properties that are being placed into the new list will no longer follow the criteria of the list you took it from. They will follow the criteria of the automated list you are applying it to.

PropStream Click-to-Dial lets you instantly call leads by clicking a phone number directly in the platform. With a built-in softphone (VoIP), you can place calls immediately, moving from research to live conversations in seconds without leaving PropStream.

PropStream’s Dialer Campaigns let you organize outbound calling, track connections, and manage team assignments, all in one workspace.

With Click-to-Dial and Dialer Campaigns, you can make up to 150 calls per day. Need more? BatchDialer integration increases call volume while keeping leads organized.

Track dialer, email, and postcard campaigns in one centralized dashboard to monitor connections, opens, clicks, and lead activity.

How do I pull a “Flipper” list?

Unknown equity is found after creating a search with equity. If you are targeting 30% or more equity, an option will appear to include unknown equity.

Go to the property characteristics filter section and filter by property class “Vacant Land”, then specify the types of vacant land you are looking for under property type.

The Rental ROI Calculator is used to evaluate the financial performance of a rental property by calculating cash flow, cap rate, and long-term ROI based on income, expenses, and financing inputs.

The Fix & Flip Analyzer helps investors estimate total costs, projected profit, and ROI for a flip, while also calculating the maximum allowable offer (MAO) to avoid overpaying on a deal.

Yes, both the Rental ROI Calculator and Fix & Flip Analyzer are built into the Property Details page, allowing you to analyze deals, adjust assumptions, and make decisions without leaving your workflow.

Skip tracing is the process of finding contact information, such as names, emails, and phone numbers for individuals who are difficult to locate. It’s crucial for real estate investors, agents, brokers, and wholesalers to reach property owners or potential buyers and sellers.

Why You Need It:
Skip tracing helps you connect with leads, negotiate deals, and close sales faster by providing accurate contact details.

Cost on PropStream:
Skip tracing is free on the Pro and Elite plans. If you're on the Essentials plan, you can add Lead Automator (starting at $27/month) to get free skip tracing as well.

To collapse the map and expand the property details, hover over and click the arrow icon located at the top of the map. This will hide the map and give you a larger view of the property information.

A Map Card is a quick snapshot of the property. It has a regular and expanded view. The search card is a simplified version of the Map Card and contains less statistical information about the property. Search Cards are also displayed in two columns on larger monitors. To access more detailed information, select the Map Card or open the Property Card.

LoanGeek connects real estate investors with lenders that offer investment-focused financing options for small to medium-sized businesses. Available financing varies by project and lender, so users can review options based on their specific deal needs.

Using agentic AI and live property data, it analyzes key attributes to provide tailored answers to your questions. Ask about investment metrics, comps, cash flow, ARV, rent estimates, and more, or use suggested prompts to quickly evaluate opportunities.

Yes. PSI instantly evaluates properties and investment metrics like ARV, cap rate, cash flow, profit potential, comparable sales, and more, helping investors assess deals faster and with greater confidence.

The PSI Assistant integrates seamlessly with PropStream’s calculators, including the Rental ROI Calculator and Fix & Flip Analyzer, so you can analyze cash flow, forecast returns, estimate rehab costs, and determine maximum allowable offer (MAO) in one workflow.

PropStream AI Search is an AI-powered property search feature that lets you describe the properties you’re looking for using everyday language. It works with PropStream’s 160+ Property Search filters to turn your description into a property search while showing you the criteria AI applied.

Simply describe the type of property or opportunity you’re looking for, and AI Search translates your request into relevant search criteria. You can review the applied filters, refine your search conversationally, or adjust the filters manually. AI Search also supports voice input for hands-free searching.

The AI Summary button is a new feature part of PropStream Intelligence on the Property Details page that instantly generates an AI-powered investment summary for the property you're viewing. You'll find it at the top of the page, next to the Tools dropdown. With one click, PropStream Intelligence opens and provides a concise overview—no prompts or setup required.

The AI Summary highlights the key details investors need most, including the property's After Repair Value (ARV), comparable properties (comps), distress indicators, mortgage information, and linked properties. It also recommends helpful next steps, such as running comps, opening the Rental ROI Calculator or the Fix & Flip Analyzer, or skip tracing the property.

No. The AI Summary is part of PropStream Intelligence and uses a built-in prompt that automatically generates a summary of the property you're viewing. Once PropStream Intelligence opens, you can continue the conversation by asking additional questions or exploring the property in more detail.

The AI Summary is designed to help you take action faster. From the PropStream Intelligence summary, you can open the Rental ROI Calculator, launch the Fix & Flip Analyzer, run comparable property analysis, skip-trace the owner, or continue chatting with PropStream Intelligence for deeper property insights.

Not at this time. The AI Summary button is currently available only within the PropStream web application and PropStream white-label web applications. Support for the iOS and Android mobile apps is being considered for a future release.

Yes. After creating a search with AI Search, you can add or change criteria using natural language or PropStream’s traditional filter search. This lets you refine your results while maintaining visibility and control over the filters being used.

You will also find it when using the desktop version on the contacts page, where your skip tracing results are stored. Look for the label “mobile favorites”. *PropStream engages an independent third party to perform skip-tracing.

If you favorite a property that is already in a marketing list, the heart will be filled red. If it is already in a marketing list, it will not appear in your mobile favorites.

If you want to add a saved property to your mobile favorites, un-favorite the property (uncheck the heart) and then re-add the property by re-favoriting it. This will show the property in both the marketing list and in mobile favorites.
