Adoption figures come from company filings, official releases or independent surveys, linked in each entry. We compared documented features and published prices; we did not run hands-on tests. Scoring method
This list is for residential real estate investors and proptech teams who need property records, owner data, mortgages and comps for US homes. It covers two kinds of product: search apps for finding and contacting owners (PropStream, DealMachine, PropertyRadar, Regrid) and data APIs or bulk feeds for building products (ATTOM, Cotality, BatchData, RentCast, Realie). Scores weight features 35%, adoption 35% and value 30%. We compared documented features and published prices on each vendor's own pages; we did not run test queries. Where a vendor publishes no citable user count, we scored adoption conservatively. Estated is not listed because it is now part of ATTOM.
AssessmentPropStream ranks first because it packs the deepest investor dataset on this list, including deeds, mortgages, liens, pre-foreclosures and MLS records, into a published $99 monthly plan. ATTOM is the pick for developers, with a 160+ million property API from $500 per month and a 30-day trial. DealMachine is best when you need owner phones and emails attached to each record, and Cotality, formerly CoreLogic, is the enterprise choice for parcel coverage above 99.9%. Regrid is the cheapest way to see parcels and owners, RentCast is the value pick for rent estimates, PropertyRadar is built for monitoring markets, BatchData serves high-volume API buyers, and Realie is a low-cost API for prototypes.

PropStream
Web and mobile property search platform with owner, mortgage, lien and pre-foreclosure records for residential investors and agents.
8.6overallWeb and mobile property search platform with owner, mortgage, lien and pre-foreclosure records for residential investors and agents.
Best forresidential investors who want owner data, comps and lead lists in one app
PropStream is the most complete self-serve residential database for investors who work deal by deal. Its homepage lists 160M+ property records, 308M+ deeds and sales, 185M+ mortgages, 41M+ pre-foreclosures, 150M+ involuntary liens and 70M+ MLS records, so one search can show who owns a house, what they paid, what they owe and whether the property is in distress. More than 165 filters and 20 Lead Lists cover the usual investor targets such as pre-foreclosures, tax liens and vacant homes. The Essentials plan costs $99 per month, or $81 per month when you pay $972 a year, and includes 25,000 saves and exports per month, AI Search, the PropStream Intelligence assistant and a one-time $100 marketing credit. Stewart Information Services owns the company. The limits are on scale and teamwork: additional users cost $30 per month each, unused exports expire monthly, and developers who need records inside their own product are better served by an API vendor such as ATTOM or BatchData.
Strengths
- +Published $99 monthly price with a 7-day free trial
- +Deed, mortgage, lien and MLS history sit in one search
- +Essentials includes a one-time $100 marketing credit for skip tracing, emails or postcards
Limitations
- −Extra team members cost $30 per month each on Essentials
- −Unused saves and exports do not roll over to the next month
- −Built for searching in an app, not for bulk API delivery into your own product
SummaryPropStream is the best choice for residential investors because $99 per month buys owner, mortgage, lien and pre-foreclosure search across 160M+ properties. Use the 7-day trial to check record depth in your county.

ATTOM
US property data company that licenses ownership, sales, mortgage, valuation and foreclosure data by API, bulk file and cloud marketplace.
8.4overallUS property data company that licenses ownership, sales, mortgage, valuation and foreclosure data by API, bulk file and cloud marketplace.
Best forproptech teams building property data into an app
ATTOM is the default data vendor for teams that build products on top of residential property records. Its Property Data API page says it covers 160+ million US properties, and the pricing page splits access into two options. Basic Property starts at $500 per month and includes property profiles, assessment data, ownership and mortgage information, sales history, geographic lookups, schools and neighborhood data. Premium Property is quoted and adds full property event history, ATTOM AVM and rental AVM, sales comparables, assessment history, pre-foreclosure data and boundaries. Building permits and parcel tiles are add-ons. Developers can request a free 30-day trial API key, and ATTOM also offers an MCP Server for AI assistants. ATTOM acquired Estated, whose site now points users to the ATTOM API. The trade-offs are cost and packaging: comps and valuations sit in the quoted tier, there is no investor-facing search app, and ATTOM notes that endpoint availability may vary by license.
Strengths
- +Published $500 monthly entry price for the API
- +Free 30-day trial API key with sandbox access
- +Owns Estated, so legacy Estated API users have a direct upgrade path
Limitations
- −Comps, AVMs and pre-foreclosure data require the quoted Premium Property tier
- −No consumer app for list building or outreach
- −Endpoint availability varies by license, so scope the contract carefully
SummaryATTOM is the best choice for proptech teams because its API covers 160+ million US properties and starts at a published $500 per month. Ask for the Premium tier quote if you need comps or AVMs.

DealMachine
Property and owner contact database for investors with search, enrichment, Driving for Dollars, direct mail and a REST API.
8.3overallProperty and owner contact database for investors with search, enrichment, Driving for Dollars, direct mail and a REST API.
Best forinvestors who want owner phone numbers and emails with each record
Adoption data
150,000+DealMachine says more than 150,000 investors, agents and data teams use its platform, according to its homepage checked in November 2026.
DealMachine, DealMachine homepage (2026): “Trusted by 150,000+ investors, agents, and data teams”
DealMachine combines a residential property database with the owner contact data investors need to act on it. The company lists 150M+ properties, 240M+ people records and 50M+ companies, with 800+ filters for equity, vacancy status, ownership length and property type. Entering any address returns the owner, verified contact information and 100+ enriched fields. Every plan includes the Driving for Dollars app for tagging properties from a phone, plus a REST API, CLI, webhooks and an MCP server, which is unusual at this price. The Basic plan costs $99 per seat per month billed annually with 10,000 monthly data credits per seat, and Pro is $149 per bundle per month for 3 users and 20,000 credits. Postcards are pay as you go, from $0.75 for a 4x6 card on Basic. DealMachine says more than 150,000 investors, agents and data teams use it. The limits: credits cap how many records you enrich each month, and the advertised $99 price assumes annual billing.
Strengths
- +Owner phones and emails come with property records, not as a separate skip trace product
- +API access is included from the Basic plan
- +Pay-as-you-go postcards from $0.75 per 4x6 piece on Basic
Limitations
- −The $99 Basic price is billed annually
- −Data use is metered by monthly credits
- −Mail is charged per piece on top of the plan
SummaryDealMachine is the best choice for investors who need to reach owners because each record can include phone numbers and emails, from $99 per seat per month billed annually. Teams that only need records without contacts can pay less elsewhere.

Cotality
The company formerly called CoreLogic, licensing parcel, ownership, tax and transaction data for US properties.
8.0overallThe company formerly called CoreLogic, licensing parcel, ownership, tax and transaction data for US properties.
Best forlenders, insurers and large data teams that need near-complete parcel coverage
Cotality is the new name of CoreLogic, which announced the rebrand in March 2025, and it remains one of the two largest licensors of US property records alongside ATTOM. Its Property Characteristics dataset covers over 154 million residential and non-residential properties and a footprint of over 99.9% of nationwide parcels. The product includes parcel and subdivision information, geospatial data, owner and owner mailing details, assessed values and tax information, structure attributes and the most recent purchase transaction, refreshed from tax and assessor sources. Delivery options are broad: API, bulk files, an MCP server, and the Databricks, Google Cloud, Microsoft Azure and Snowflake marketplaces. The catch is access. Cotality publishes no prices and says pricing varies by history, volume, geography and delivery frequency, so a solo investor will find it hard to buy. It is the right shortlist entry for lenders, insurers and data teams that need near-complete parcel coverage under an enterprise contract.
Strengths
- +Parcel footprint of over 99.9% nationwide, per Cotality
- +Delivery into the main cloud data platforms
- +Long history as CoreLogic in mortgage and insurance data
Limitations
- −No published prices; every license is quoted
- −Sold to enterprises, not individual investors
- −The Property Characteristics product shows the most recent purchase, so deeper history needs other datasets
SummaryCotality is the best choice for enterprise data teams because its parcel dataset covers over 99.9% of US parcels and loads straight into Snowflake, Databricks or Google Cloud. Expect a quoted contract rather than a self-serve plan.
- 5

RentCast
Property data API and web app with property records, owner details, value and rent estimates, comps and listings.
8.0overallProperty data API and web app with property records, owner details, value and rent estimates, comps and listings.
Best fordevelopers and landlords who need rent estimates and comps on a small budget
RentCast is the best value for rental investors and small proptech teams that need rent numbers, not just ownership. Its API covers 150+ million residential and commercial property records with structure attributes, tax assessment history, sale history and current owner details, plus value and rent AVMs with comparable properties, active sale and rental listings in all 50 states and market trends for 38k+ zip codes. RentCast says it processes over 500,000 updates daily from public records, tax assessors and online directories. Pricing is fully published: the Developer plan is free with 50 calls per month, Foundation is $74 per month for 1,000 requests, Growth $199 for 5,000 and Scale $449 for 25,000, with no contracts. An MCP server and a Zapier integration make it easy to connect to AI tools and spreadsheets. It is thinner than ATTOM or PropStream on distress data, with no mortgages, liens or pre-foreclosures listed, and it has no owner contact data.
Strengths
- +Permanent free API plan with 50 calls per month
- +No contracts; plans can be changed or cancelled at any time
- +Rent estimates and rental comps, which most record vendors lack
Limitations
- −Overage on the free plan costs $0.20 per request
- −No mortgage, lien or pre-foreclosure data listed
- −No skip tracing or owner phone numbers
SummaryRentCast is the best choice for rental investors and small developers because it includes rent AVMs and comps with a free 50-call API plan. Choose ATTOM or BatchData if you need mortgage and lien data.

PropertyRadar
Property and owner data platform with lead plays, monitoring, contact append and marketing tools for investors and agents.
7.9overallProperty and owner data platform with lead plays, monitoring, contact append and marketing tools for investors and agents.
Best forinvestors and agents who monitor neighborhoods for distress signals
PropertyRadar suits investors and agents who want to watch a market rather than pull a one-off list. The homepage lists 160M+ properties, 318M+ mortgages, 1.1M+ listings, 30+ distress signals and coverage of 3,000+ counties. Lead plays target pre-foreclosure, probate, absentee owners, vacant and tax-delinquent properties. The Solo plan costs $119 per month, or $99 per month prepaid annually, and includes one user, unlimited views, saves and imports, 10,000 monthly exports, 10,000 monitored properties, 250 monthly phones and emails, 250 email sends and API access with community support. Team is $249 per month for 3 users and 25,000 exports. A 5-day free trial is available. Compared with PropStream, PropertyRadar costs more at entry and includes fewer contact lookups, but its monitoring limits and API access on the cheapest plan make it better for agents who track changes on thousands of homes and want the data in their own CRM.
Strengths
- +Monitoring of up to 10,000 properties on the entry plan
- +API access from the cheapest plan
- +Ready-made plays for probate, pre-foreclosure, vacant and tax-delinquent owners
Limitations
- −Entry price is $20 higher than PropStream per month
- −Solo includes only 250 phone and email lookups per month
- −Extra users on Solo cost $50 per user per month
SummaryPropertyRadar is the best choice for market monitoring because its $119 Solo plan watches 10,000 properties and includes API access. Investors who mainly export lists get more for less from PropStream.

Regrid
Nationwide parcel map and data provider with a property app, parcel API and county data downloads.
7.9overallNationwide parcel map and data provider with a property app, parcel API and county data downloads.
Best forbudget users who need parcel boundaries and owner of record
Regrid is a parcel map first, and that makes it the cheapest way to see property lines and the owner of record across the US. The free Starter account allows 25 property details per day with no credit card. Pro costs $10 per month or $100 per year and opens 1,000 lookups per day on web and mobile, property follows with change alerts, map filters and styling, FEMA flood zones, wetlands and elevation layers, spreadsheet import and exports in spreadsheet or spatial formats. Pro includes 5,000 rows of spreadsheet data per month, after which parcels are priced individually. Team plans cost $20 per user per month and double lookups to 2,000 per day with premium data fields. Regrid also sells a parcel API and county data files for developers. What it lacks is investor depth: there are no mortgage balances, liens, pre-foreclosure filings or owner phone numbers in the app, so it is a complement to PropStream or DealMachine rather than a replacement.
Strengths
- +Cheapest paid plan on this list at $10 per month
- +Permanent free tier with no credit card
- +Parcel boundaries on a map, which list tools often lack
Limitations
- −No mortgage, lien or skip tracing data in the Property App
- −Pro caps follows at 100 and focus areas at 10
- −Bulk exports beyond 5,000 rows are charged per parcel
SummaryRegrid is the best choice for budget parcel research because Pro costs $10 per month for 1,000 lookups a day. Pair it with an investor platform if you need mortgages or owner contacts.
- 8

BatchData
Property, owner and contact data API with bulk delivery, skip tracing, AVMs and comps for proptech and enterprise teams.
7.7overallProperty, owner and contact data API with bulk delivery, skip tracing, AVMs and comps for proptech and enterprise teams.
Best forproptech teams that need high-volume property and contact data by API
BatchData is built for software teams and large operators that move property data in volume. It lists 169M+ parcels, 1,000+ data points per property, 355M+ contact records, 156M+ building permits and 3,100+ counties. Every Property Data plan includes property search and lookup, address autocomplete, core property data with 240+ points, mortgage and open liens with 140+ points, pre-foreclosure data, 30+ Quick Lists and API access. Growth costs $1,000 per month for 100,000 records, Professional $2,500 for 300,000, Scale $5,000 for 750,000 and Enterprise $10,000 for 3,000,000. Add-ons are priced separately: listings $600, deed history $500, valuation $600, comps $1,250 and contact enrichment $5,000 per month. Skip tracing and reverse skip tracing are sold as their own products. The pricing is transparent but steep for an individual investor, and the useful extras add up quickly, so BatchData makes most sense when record volume is high and the data feeds your own platform.
Strengths
- +Published plan prices from $1,000 per month
- +Skip tracing and contact enrichment from the same vendor
- +BatchRank add-on scores each property 0 to 100 on likelihood to sell in 6 to 12 months
Limitations
- −Entry price is ten times higher than investor apps
- −Comps ($1,250 per month) and valuation ($600 per month) are paid add-ons
- −No free plan
SummaryBatchData is the best choice for high-volume API buyers because its $1,000 Growth plan includes 100,000 records a month with mortgage and lien data. Individual investors get better value from PropStream or DealMachine.
- 9

Realie
Property data API and bulk files built from county sources, with self-serve token plans and a free tier.
7.4overallProperty data API and bulk files built from county sources, with self-serve token plans and a free tier.
Best fordevelopers testing a property data API without a contract
Realie is a newer property data API that collects records directly from county sources and sells them with simple published tiers. The company says its data covers 3,100+ counties and includes property, ownership, mortgage, tax and zoning fields, normalized into one schema. Pricing starts with a free plan of 25 tokens per month, then Tier 1 at $50 per month for 1,250 tokens, Tier 2 at $150 for 6,000 and Tier 3 at $350 for 30,000, with overage from $0.15 down to $0.012 per token. All plans include the same endpoints and data types and up to 100 parcels per request, and tokens are shared between the web platform and the API. Statewide or nationwide bulk files are licensed separately. Realie also offers a CLI and an MCP server. It is a cheap way to prototype, but it has a shorter public track record than ATTOM or Cotality, so check field fill rates in your target counties before you build on it.
Strengths
- +Free tier and published self-serve prices from $50 per month
- +Overage is metered per token, from $0.012 on Tier 3
- +All tiers get the full API, not a reduced field set
Limitations
- −A newer vendor with less published track record than ATTOM or Cotality
- −No investor search app for list building or outreach
- −Bulk data is quoted separately
SummaryRealie is the best choice for developers on a tight budget because all tiers include the full API, from a free plan to $50 per month. Validate county coverage before committing production traffic.
Choosing a product
- Decide between an app and an API
- Investors who search, filter and mail owners need an app such as PropStream, DealMachine or PropertyRadar. Teams putting property data inside their own software need an API or bulk feed from ATTOM, Cotality, BatchData, RentCast or Realie. Some vendors sell both, but pricing is set for one audience.
- Check which records are included
- Ownership and tax data are standard. Mortgages, liens and pre-foreclosures are not: PropStream lists 185M+ mortgages, PropertyRadar 318M+ mortgages, and BatchData includes open liens on every plan, while Regrid and RentCast do not list mortgage data. ATTOM puts comps, AVMs and pre-foreclosure data in its quoted Premium tier.
- Price owner contact data separately
- Owner phone numbers and emails are often metered. DealMachine meters them with monthly credits, PropertyRadar Solo includes 250 lookups a month, and BatchData sells contact enrichment as a $5,000 per month add-on. Estimate how many owners you will contact each month before comparing plans.
- Compare published entry prices
- As of November 2026, Regrid Pro costs $10 per month, Realie $50, RentCast $74, PropStream and DealMachine $99 (DealMachine billed annually), PropertyRadar $119, ATTOM's API $500 and BatchData $1,000 per month. Cotality and ATTOM Premium are quoted.
- Test coverage in your county
- Record depth varies by county because the data comes from local assessors and recorders. Use the free plans from Regrid, RentCast and Realie, or the trials from PropStream (7 days), PropertyRadar (5 days) and ATTOM (30 days), on addresses you already know.
