PropStream is the default for real estate investors and wholesalers, but you pay twice — once for the seat ($99–$169/mo), then again every time you skip-trace a record ($0.10 each). Stop pulling lists for a month and you still pay. Pull a 50K direct-mail list and the skip-trace bill alone runs $5,000. CheapData uses the same kind of consumer pipeline, charges per record instead of per seat, and ships at a fraction of the cost.

PropStream charges every month whether you log in or not. CheapData credits never expire — load up once and run campaigns whenever your inventory matches.
Every Basic unlock already has phone and email. No $0.10-per-record skip-trace add-on. Premium adds income and net worth on the same record.
Need to call mortgage brokers next week and homeowners this week? Same credit balance. PropStream doesn’t do B2B at all.
Is the homeowner data really the same?
Yes. Same kind of public-record + consumer-graph stack as PropStream. We don’t pay for the brand and the affiliate program, so the same record costs you a fraction.
Can I still filter by ZIP, equity, length-of-residence?
Yes. ZIP, county, age range, income, net worth, marital status, ownership status, and length of residence are all filters. Premium unlock adds estimated equity and mortgage detail.
What about driving-for-dollars / map view?
Phase 2. Today you build lists in search and export. The data feeds your map tool of choice.
How fast can I export 50K records?
Seconds for a CSV. At Scale tier (0.5¢) that’s $250 vs roughly $5K on PropStream after skip-trace fees.
50 free contacts on signup. No credit card. No seats.
