Where DealMachine falls short
Four limitations that cost you deals every day.
Search & Discovery
DealMachine finds properties. PropertyRadar finds motivated owners.
- DealMachine gives you 157 filters — enough to build a basic list, not a strategy
- No distress score ranking — you can't sort by motivation level before building your list
- No owner demographics, no LLC resolution in search
- PropertyRadar lets you sort however you like - including by level of distress.
Contact Quality
Both include skip tracing. The difference is what you can do with it.
- DealMachine's skip trace is included — that's a genuine win
- DNC status is flagged but not filterable — compliance work happens after the list is built, not before
- PropertyRadar resolves LLCs to real people and is searchable before you
build - PropertyRadar lets you filter by contact availability and DNC status before you build, and resolves entities to real people via OwnerGraph™
Search criteria
+300 criteria vs 157. That's not a gap. That's a different tool.
- DealMachine has 157 criteria on paper. Owner age, equity, occupation — it's there.
The catch: some filters are empty. You build the search, then find out there's nothing to find. - PropertyRadar has 285 distinct criteria, all populated — plus 30 distress signals and 118 Quick Lists
Campaign Automation
DealMachine automates outreach. PropertyRadar automates the entire workflow.
- DealMachine sequences mail and calls from a fixed static list
- When new properties match your criteria, you have to manually add them
- No event-triggered campaigns — no display ads, no automatic list
updates - PropertyRadar fires campaigns automatically the moment a new lead

The data process
DealMachine hands you data.
PropertyRadar earns it.
Multi-source Bake-offs
We test multiple source types head-to-head per county. In our latest bake-off, our selection was two weeks faster across 400+ counties. DealMachine uses a single data provider with no comparative testing.
Back test and back fill
Every source is verified against county records. Coverage gaps are found and filled. Data is cleaned and enriched in real-time as it flows in. DealMachine posts what their provider delivers. We make it better first.
Clean, enrich, and connect
NLP and ML normalize records. OwnerGraph™ resolves LLCs to real people. DealMachine shows you the entity name. PropertyRadar finds you the person to call — with no extra step.

The Verdict
Which should you choose?
DealMachine may be right if you...
Spend most of your time in the field and driving for dollars is your primary lead gen method
Are just getting started and want a simple, mobile-first tool
Only need mail and phone — no display ads or event-triggered campaigns
BETTER FOR MOST
PropertyRadar is right if you...
Need court-sourced data — Probate, Divorce, Eviction - not recorder data that arrives months late
Need depth and searchability across all datasets — 300+ criteria, owner demographics, 30 distress signals
Serve multiple audiences — investors, agents, mortgage pros, or services
Want to build a system with campaigns that run automatically as new matching properties appears.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I import my DealMachine lists into PropertyRadar?
Yes. Upload any list and PropertyRadar appends everything we have — property details, owner contact info, court-sourced distress signals, equity data, demographics, and more. Your driving-for-dollars leads get a lot smarter the moment you bring them in.
DealMachine includes skip tracing. Does PropertyRadar?
Yes — contact data is included in your plan, no per-lookup fees. The difference is quality and searchability. PropertyRadar's contact data is searchable before you build your list, includes owner demographics, and resolves LLC entities to real people via OwnerGraph™. DealMachine's email accuracy is self-reported at around 10% and DNC status is flagged but not filterable before list build.
What about driving for dollars? DealMachine is built around that.
If field prospecting is your primary lead gen method and you don’t need court data or deep filter criteria, DealMachine may suit you. PropertyRadar is better if you want to know which doors are worth knocking before you drive — using probate, eviction, distress signals, and 300+ criteria to build a targeted list first.
Is PropertyRadar only for real estate investors?
No. PropertyRadar serves investors, residential agents, commercial agents, mortgage professionals, and home services companies — each with dedicated Plays, QuickLists, and workflows tailored to their use case.
Does PropertyRadar have a free trial?
Yes. Start for free. Full access to property data, filters, and marketing tools. We recommend running the same search on both platforms and checking against your county recorder. The results speak for themselves.
