Direct answer
DealMachine now puts property lookup, owner contact search, and freeform AI requests in one search bar, backed by paid data and outreach plans. DistressedDealRadar takes a narrower first step: learn the distressed channel, score the lead, run the numbers, and search mixed foreclosure inventory free with no account before you add a paid data workflow.
Six popular searches, six free starting paths
DealMachine currently puts these six searches on its homepage. DistressedDealRadar does not provide the same owner database or AI lookup. It gives you a free path to understand each channel and test the deal math first.
Source checked September 28, 2026: DealMachine's official homepage and popular searches. Product positioning and plans can change.
| Address found on a route | Vacant-looking duplex |
|---|---|
| Free check | Pull owner record and recent sold comps |
| Math check | Run Max Bid and Deal Analyzer |
| Next step | Search the ZIP for foreclosure and REO inventory |
Underwrite the address first; use paid outreach software only when the route produces repeatable leads.
| Feature | DealMachine | DistressedDealRadar |
|---|---|---|
| Cost to start | Paid plans for unified data, enrichment, exports, and outreach | Free |
| Property filters | AI search plus 800+ filters across nationwide property and owner data | Free Property Opportunity Score and 19 calculators |
| Skip tracing | Owner-data enrichment and outreach workflow | Not offered; underwrite first, then choose an owner-data service for leads worth pursuing |
| Account | Required | None for guides, scoring, and calculators |
| Deal analysis | Comps plus rehab and wholesale calculators | 19 calculators plus Property Opportunity Score |
| Foreclosure and REO search | Preforeclosure and other distressed popular-search entry points | Live ZIP search through Foreclosure.com, free to open |
Score the lead and run the deal math in DistressedDealRadar first. If the address survives title, repair, financing, and exit checks, decide whether DealMachine's owner data and combined search and outreach workflow fits the way you source leads.
DistressedDealRadar is a free, no-account option for first-pass underwriting, with a Property Opportunity Score, 19 calculators, state guides, and live ZIP foreclosure search. It does not replace DealMachine's unified property data, owner enrichment, list building, AI search, or outreach workflow.
That depends on whether you already need owner data, list building, and outreach at repeatable volume. Beginners can first use free state guides, Max Bid, Deal Analyzer, rehab estimates, and ZIP deal search to test a market and underwrite leads before adding a paid data workflow.
No. DealMachine's current homepage presents paid plans for its unified data workflow, but prices and terms can change. This page compares workflow fit without exact competitor dollar claims.
DealMachine's current homepage says one search bar can look up properties, find owner contact information, or accept a freeform AI request. DistressedDealRadar offers a different first step: free channel guides, scoring, calculators, and mixed foreclosure inventory search without an account.
