PropStream vs. Mashvisor: Lead Sourcing vs. Rental Analytics
PropStream's nationwide records and skip tracing compared against Mashvisor's rental-performance analytics - sourced from both companies' pricing pages.
Reviewed September 22, 2026
Different jobs at similar price points. PropStream is a nationwide property-records, MLS, and skip-tracing platform built for finding and marketing to owners, useful across any exit strategy. Mashvisor is rental-performance analytics - long-term and Airbnb income projections, occupancy rates, market heatmaps - built for deciding where to buy a rental, not for sourcing or contacting leads. Priced and sourced as of September 2026. Pricing changes, so verify current numbers before you buy.
Pricing, Side by Side
| Tier | PropStream | Mashvisor |
|---|---|---|
| Entry | Essentials, $99/mo ($81 annual): 25,000 saves/exports, 1 seat, basic calculators, Intelligence AI assistant | Lite, $49.99/mo (annual): single-property rental analysis, STR regulation data |
| Mid tier | Pro, $199/mo ($165 annual): 50,000 saves, 2 seats, free skip tracing | Standard, $74.99/mo: nationwide discovery, heatmaps, 20 exports/mo |
| Top tier | Elite, $699/mo ($583 annual): 100,000 saves, 9 seats | Professional, $99.99/mo: multifamily listings, 60 exports, CRM tools |
Mashvisor is cheaper at every comparable tier - PropStream's entry tier ($99/mo) is actually $0.99 cheaper than Mashvisor's top tier ($99.99/mo), so the gap is closer than it looks. Either way, Mashvisor isn't doing PropStream's job: its public pricing page doesn't advertise skip tracing or direct-mail marketing.
What Each Tool Actually Does
PropStream pulls 160+ million property records nationwide (including MLS records and listings), lets you filter and export lists, skip-trace an owner, and market to them by mail or phone from the same platform. Its bundled calculators handle basic rental, flip, and rehab math, but nothing rental-specific like occupancy modeling. Mashvisor's public pricing page doesn't advertise lead-sourcing or owner-contact tools; its value is in the numbers - projected rent, cap rate, cash-on-cash return, and Airbnb income by neighborhood, plus short-term-rental legality data by city.
Where PropStream Is the Better Fit
- You need to find and contact property owners, not just analyze rental performance.
- Your strategy includes flips or wholesale deals, where Mashvisor's public materials offer nothing.
- You want skip tracing and direct-mail marketing in the same platform.
Where Mashvisor Is the Better Fit
- You're exclusively evaluating long-term or Airbnb rental performance.
- You need short-term-rental regulation data by city before buying for Airbnb.
- You want heatmap-based market discovery rather than a records database to filter yourself.
The Bottom Line
These barely compete. PropStream finds and contacts leads across any strategy; Mashvisor tells you whether a rental market is worth entering. An investor doing both flips and Airbnb rentals could reasonably use both for different halves of the process.
