Why are you leaving PropStream?
The one you have
The short answer
People leave PropStream for different reasons, and each reason has a different answer. Find yours below. If you trace thousands of owners a month on your own, read when PropStream is still the right answer first: with its $30 add-on it may still be your smallest bill.

PropStream and six alternatives, side by side
Five rows that move a real estate investor’s bill and day-to-day. PropStream sits on top as the reference, and every figure is the entry plan on monthly billing, September 2026.
| Tool | Entry price | Contact data | Users on that price | Free trial | iOS app |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| $99 | 12¢ each, or $30 a month for up to 25,000 | 1, then $30 each | 7 days, 50 leads | 3.07 from 177 | |
| Free. Gold $119 | 10¢ a match, or 10,000 a month on Gold | Not stated | Free plan, no card | 5.00 from 4 | |
| $119 | In each lead, 10,000 a month | 3 | 7 days | 4.67 from 717 | |
| $99 a seat | In the seat’s 10,000 credits | 1, then $99 a seat | None | 4.79 from 5,002 | |
| $119 | 250 a month, then 8¢ | 1, then $50 each | 5 days | 4.40 from 52 | |
| $299 | 10,000 a month on Solo | 1, then $125 each | 14 days, card required | 4.89 from 387 | |
| $119 | None. A website tool | 1 CRM user on Free | None. 30-day money-back | No app |
Pricing: what one month costs on each
One person, a 2,000 owner list, every owner skip traced, no mail. Priced from each pricing page as it read in September 2026, monthly billing, before tax.
Three people tracing 5,000 owners reorders it: BatchLeads $119, PropStream $189, DealMachine $297, PropertyRadar $519, REsimpli $549.

At 2,000 owners a month for one person, the smallest published bill is DealMachine, $99.

Why you are leaving, and what fixes it
Each card names what the switch fixes and what it costs you, with the same month priced against PropStream’s $129.
Leaving because
Paying $99 a month just to search and download lists
Propwire
What it fixes
Searching, comps and list downloads cost nothing, up to 10,000 properties a month, and sign-up asks for a name and an email. Skip tracing is 10¢ per successful match from a wallet you top up, or 10,000 a month on its $119 Gold plan. Under about 990 matches a month, that is less than PropStream’s $99 before any tracing.
What you give up
It lists no driving for dollars, mail or dialer, so lists leave it for another tool. There is almost nothing to check it against: no G2 page, and app bases of 4 ratings on iOS and 21 on Google Play. It is not a PropStream product either. Propwire LLC publishes it.
The 2,000 owner month
$119 on Gold, or $200 at 10¢ a match
Leaving because
Skip tracing and extra users keep adding to the bill
BatchLeads
What it fixes
$119 covers three users and 10,000 leads a month with phone numbers and emails attached, then 4¢ a lead. Three people tracing 5,000 owners pay $119 against PropStream’s $189, and one person pays less up to about 10,250 traces a month.
What you give up
It is not a way out of PropStream’s company: PropStream has owned it since July 2025. Stale numbers are the most repeated complaint on its G2 page, and a fourth user means Professional at $349.
The 2,000 owner month
Leaving because
The app lets you down in the car
DealMachine
What it fixes
The phone app is the product: 4.79 on iOS from 5,002 ratings against PropStream’s 3.07 from 177, with route tracking and tap-to-tag on every plan. Its $99 seat carries 10,000 data credits, so tracing up to 10,000 owners a month adds nothing to the bill.
What you give up
No free trial as of September 2026. Every extra person is another $99 seat, so three people cost $297 against PropStream’s $189, and postcards are 75¢ against 57¢.
The 2,000 owner month
Leaving because
You want to watch a territory and see its coverage first
PropertyRadar
What it fixes
It publishes a coverage table for every state with the year each county’s foreclosure records start: all 58 California counties from 2001 or 2002, all 67 in Florida. Solo watches 10,000 properties for changes and never counts saves.
What you give up
Contacts stop at 250 a month, then 8¢ each, so 2,000 phone numbers cost $259 against $129. Stale data is its most repeated complaint on G2, and its Android app is rated 3.6.
The 2,000 owner month
Leaving because
You need a CRM and a dialer as well as the data
REsimpli
What it fixes
One system for the whole job: a pipeline, a triple-line dialer with unlimited minutes under fair use, 10,000 skip traces a month and nationwide list pulling, in $299. Its iOS app is rated 4.89 from 387 ratings.
What you give up
$299 before anything else, $170 a month more than PropStream with Connect. Past its 10,000 traces, its pricing page quotes 15¢ a record, while its Terms, effective September 2026, say tracing stops for the rest of the billing cycle. Mail printing has no published rate, and its automatic list builder is still marked coming soon.

You would rather sellers came to you
Carrot
What it fixes
It turns the job around. Instead of pulling lists, you rank a website for sellers searching in your market: $119 includes one site with 50 location pages, rank tracking for 35 keywords and CarrotCRM Free.
What you give up
No property data, skip tracing or dialer at all, so outbound work needs another tool. No trial, only a 30-day money-back guarantee, and its Trustpilot score is 3.1 from 12 reviews, where repricing is the most repeated complaint.

PropStream vs Propwire: what free actually covers
Propwire is the obvious first look, because the core of it is free. Searching, comps and list downloads cost nothing up to 10,000 properties a month. PropStream’s entry plan is $99, with 25,000 saves and exports.
Tracing is where the two meet. Propwire charges 10¢ per successful match, so its bill reaches PropStream’s $99 floor at 990 matches a month, and its Gold plan, $119 with 10,000 traces, is its cheaper route past about 1,190. PropStream with Connect is $129 for up to 25,000 traces, and a trace that finds nothing is not counted on either.
What free does not cover: Propwire lists no driving for dollars, mail or dialer, and none of its plans lists a CRM. PropStream has driving for dollars in its app, postcards from 57¢, and click-to-dial and dialer campaigns in Connect. Neither app record settles it: PropStream is 3.07 on iOS from 177 ratings, and Propwire’s 5.00 rests on four.
A BiggerPockets member who uses Propwire to skip the fee put the trade in one line: "I use it because I don't have to pay 99 a month but I know you get what you pay for."
When PropStream is still the right answer
For one person tracing a lot, it is the smallest bill in our figures. With Connect, $129 covers up to 25,000 traces a month. At 25,000, BatchLeads needs Professional at $349 and DealMachine a $298 seat with 40,000 credits.
Mail is the second case. PropStream’s postcards start at 57¢, marked limited time, against 58¢ on BatchLeads, 66¢ on PropertyRadar and 75¢ on DealMachine. Its 165+ filters and 20 prebuilt lead lists, by its own count, are the other reason to stay.
If the bill is the reason you are leaving, check what Connect at $30 does to it before you move. Traces that return nothing are not counted.
Leaving PropStream: how cancelling works
PropStream’s Terms of Use give one route out: call Customer Support on (877) 204-9040, Monday to Friday, 6am to 6pm Pacific. The contact form says in capitals that it will not process cancellations, and there is no weekend support.
You pay out the billing month you are in, with no refund for the rest of it, so cancel close to the renewal date. Export the lists you want to keep before you call. If PropStream ends the subscription itself, the same Terms refund the prepaid days pro rata.
PropStream alternatives: questions people actually ask
What is the best alternative to PropStream?
It depends on why you are leaving. For free list pulling, Propwire. For contact data and three users in one price, BatchLeads. For driving for dollars, DealMachine. For coverage you can check before paying, PropertyRadar. For a CRM with the data built in, REsimpli.
Is there a free alternative to PropStream?
Propwire. Searching, comps and downloading up to 10,000 properties a month are free, with no card. Skip tracing costs 10¢ per successful match, or 10,000 a month on its $119 Gold plan.
Is Propwire owned by PropStream?
No. Propwire is published by Propwire LLC, and nothing either company publishes connects the two. BatchLeads is the one PropStream owns, since July 2025.
What costs less than PropStream?
For one person tracing 2,000 owners a month, DealMachine at $99, and BatchLeads or Propwire Gold at $119, against PropStream’s $129 with Connect. For three people, BatchLeads at $119 against $189. At 25,000 traces a month on your own, PropStream costs less than any of them.
Which alternatives have a better app than PropStream?
Several. DealMachine rates 4.79 on iOS from 5,002 ratings, REsimpli 4.89 from 387 and BatchLeads 4.67 from 717, against PropStream’s 3.07 from 177. DealMachine is the one built around the app.
How do I cancel PropStream?
By phone, on (877) 204-9040, Monday to Friday. The contact form does not process cancellations, and you pay out the month you are in.
Should I stay on PropStream?
If you trace thousands of owners a month on your own or mail in bulk, price it with the $30 Connect add-on first. At 25,000 traces a month it was the smallest bill in our figures.
