Real estate software by role
SCOUTRE is a nationwide property intelligence and acquisition platform covering 160 million U.S. properties. Eight professions work that same record in different ways: investors decide at the curb, wholesalers price to a true maximum allowable offer, agents open listing conversations, flippers scope repairs, landlords find the owner who lives three states away, and door-knockers qualify the person before knocking. Coverage varies by county.
All eight start from the same job: find motivated sellers one property at a time. Every page below states three things: the problem you actually have on a Tuesday, the mechanism that fixes it, and the limits worth knowing before you pay. The biggest limit is the same on all eight.
Which page do you need?
Pick the page that matches how you get paid, not the label on your business card. All eight roles read the same 160 million-property record and the same 16 distress signals, but the workflow and the numbers that decide the day differ sharply.
- If you buy off-market with your own or private money, start with SCOUTRE for real estate investors.
- If you assign contracts and your margin lives in the spread, start with real estate wholesaling software.
- If you are licensed and farm a neighbourhood for listings, start with the real estate agent CRM.
- If your money is made on after repair value minus repair cost, start with SCOUTRE for house flippers.
- If you buy and hold on specific streets, start with software for buying rental property.
- If you knock doors, start with the solar door knocking app or the canvassing app for roofers and contractors.
- If you originate loans and want the equity and mortgage picture on a property before the call, start with SCOUTRE for mortgage loan officers.
- If your model starts by pulling a filtered set of owners from a county database, read what SCOUTRE does not do first.
SCOUTRE by role
For real estate investors
Decide whether one house is worth your money before you leave the curb. Owner, estimated equity, estimated mortgage balance, lien position and the 16 distress signals on one record, then an unmetered trace and a maximum offer.
For real estate wholesalers
Take a house from the moment you spot it to a true maximum allowable offer and a postcard carrying its own photo. The offer step returns formula MAO, true MAO, opening offer, absolute ceiling and a verdict.
For real estate agents
Farm with recorded ownership and equity context instead of guesses, and hand every homeowner a branded home-valuation page that returns as a listing opportunity. Outreach goes out under your own name, your own brand and your own responsibility.
For house flippers
Get an after repair value from nearby sold comps you include or exclude, a repair scope from Light through Full Gut, and your maximum offer while standing in the driveway.
For landlords and rental investors
Find which houses on your target streets are owned by someone who does not live there, and the mailing address a letter should go to. Absentee owner, out-of-state owner and long-term owner are three of the signals.
For solar door-knockers
Know who owns the door and whether they live there before you knock, so conversations that end at I just rent become skipped doors. Written for the independent rep: each account is a single user.
For roofers and contractors
Turn the house with the failing roof on Elm into a named owner, a mailing address and a postcard carrying a photo of that roof. There is no roof age and no permit history in the record: year built is not roof age.
For mortgage loan officers
Estimated value, estimated equity, estimated mortgage balance, lender of record, lien position, loan type and the loan's term and maturity date on one screen, then the owner's phone number and a letter from the same record. Prospecting only, never eligibility.
What sits behind every role?
One property record sits under all eight workflows. SCOUTRE finds a property two ways: stand in front of it and GPS identifies the exact parcel with no address needed, or type any U.S. address from anywhere. What differs by role is which fields matter.
What SCOUTRE does
The full capability overview: Property in Front, Nationwide Property Search, the property record, the 16 signals, deal analysis in six steps, and the pipeline with 30+ filters over your saved leads.
Real estate skip tracing
How a trace works and what it returns. Traces run against live sources at the moment you request them, screened against Federal DNC, State DNC, DMA suppression and known-litigator flags. Hit rates vary by property and county.
Postcards and handwritten letters
Mail goes out from the property lead, carrying the actual photo of the house you took in the field. Postcards from $0.50 and handwritten letters from $0.83, print and postage included, with a proof before you pay.
The Apple Watch app
The property match with photo and address, estimated value, equity and equity percentage, mortgage balance, lender, lien position, distress signals, last sale price and date, recording date and down payment, on your wrist, with Save to CRM. Included free.
The same 16 signals behind every role
Every role starts the same way. A property is added one at a time, from the kerb with Property in Front or by address with Nationwide Property Search, and 16 distress signals then say whether that owner has a reason to sell. What changes by role is the next move: an offer, a listing invitation, a repair scope, a knock. Availability varies by property, county and source.
Who is SCOUTRE not for?
SCOUTRE has no market-wide property search. You cannot ask it for every preforeclosure in a city. You add properties one at a time and the 30+ filters then work on the leads you have saved. That rules out three business models, better read here than discovered on day two.
The volume operator who mails ten thousand generic pieces a month from a purchased county set is a bad fit: no CSV import, no export today. The team buyer is a bad fit: each account is a single user, with no teams, no seats and no shared pipelines. And anyone who needs a logged history of every call and text is a bad fit, because SCOUTRE does not log calls, emails or texts back onto the lead.
If you need one owner name once, you do not need software — your county publishes ownership free, as Philadelphia's property search does.
One record, from the house to the reply
The property is the unit, not the list. You choose the property, then work it properly. SCOUTRE keeps one record from the moment you see the house to the moment the owner responds, and the role pages differ only in what you do to it.
Most readers sit in two roles at once. A wholesaler who keeps a house is also a flipper; an agent who buys is also an investor. Nothing is gated by profession, so pick the page describing most of your work. All eight price identically at $79 a month. The breakdown is on SCOUTRE pricing.
Frequently asked questions
Does SCOUTRE work differently for each role?
No. Every account gets the same app and the same record. The role pages differ in workflow and in which numbers matter — a wholesaler lives in the offer step, an agent in the branded valuation page. No role is chosen at signup.
Which professions did SCOUTRE decide not to serve?
Title and escrow, insurance, property management, commercial real estate, and enterprise or API teams are not served. Each either starts with a market-wide filtered pull across a county, or needs data SCOUTRE does not hold: policy renewal dates, rent rolls, chain of title. Mortgage loan officers are served, because that job starts with an address already in hand rather than with a list pulled out of a database.
What makes a property owner a motivated seller?
Circumstance, not price. Preforeclosure, probate, a tax lien, vacancy, absentee ownership and a long-held house with no mortgage left each give an owner a reason to move before the market decides for them. SCOUTRE flags all 16 signals on a property you have added, whichever role page brought you here. Signals describe circumstance, not intent, and availability varies by property, county and source.
What does every role page cost to try?
Every role runs on the same plan: $79 a month after a 3-day free trial, cancel anytime. Leads, captures, skip traces, re-traces, photos, voice notes and follow-ups are unlimited. Physical mail is the only pay-per-use item: postcards from $0.50 and handwritten letters from $0.83.
Pick the workflow that matches how you get paid
3 days free, then $79 per month. Property in Front, the 16 distress signals and unmetered skip tracing are included. Cancel anytime.
