PropStream sells access to a database that refreshes every 30-90 days. PropScored scrapes county records daily and hands you a contactable prospect within a median of 2 days of the filing.
The best alternative to PropStream for seller leads is a county-verified, daily-sourced service like PropScored, which converts public-record filings into contactable prospects within a median of 2 days — versus PropStream's 30-90 day batch refresh cycles — with 84% of prospects carrying a verified phone or email.
PropStream and similar batch platforms pull county data on ~30-90 day refresh cycles. By the time a list update reaches your CRM, a pre-foreclosure notice could be weeks old and the homeowner may have already listed with someone else. PropScored scrapes every source daily. Across 1,142 timestamped filings, the median time from public-record filing to a sourced lead is 2 days — bankruptcy filings surface in 1 day, pre-foreclosure in 3 days, and liens in 7 days. County lien lists are the one exception, arriving as periodic bulk loads rather than daily feeds. See the full breakdown on data freshness.
Speed only matters if you can reach the seller. Across 5,265 sourced prospects, 84% carry a verified phone or email — 69% phone, 64% email. Contactability varies by signal: FSBO hits 96%, liens 97%, pre-foreclosure 95%, expired listings 82%, and tax delinquent 81%. Batch-sourced skip traces tend to degrade the longer a list sits unrefreshed, which is exactly the window PropStream's 30-90 day cycle creates.
"I stopped comparing platforms on record count and started comparing them on how many numbers actually connect. That's the number that fills my pipeline."
