Property data platform
Astor vs PropStream
Both tools point agents at motivated sellers. They disagree about what counts as a lead, and that disagreement is the whole decision.
What PropStream does
PropStream is a broad property-data platform covering well over 100 million properties nationwide, with filters for distress signals including divorce filings, liens, and pre-foreclosure. It's a research and list-building tool rather than a filings monitor.
How they charge: Monthly platform seat, with metered add-ons for skip tracing and marketing.
Where PropStream is stronger
- - Enormous breadth: nationwide property data with dozens of filter combinations you can slice yourself.
- - One tool for many workflows: comps, owner lookup, list pulls, marketing.
- - Well suited to investors who want to build their own criteria rather than receive a curated feed.
Where Astor is different
PropStream is a database you query; Astor is a monitor that pushes. The practical difference is freshness and direction of work: a divorce filter on a property database reflects whatever the aggregator has ingested, and you have to remember to run the query. Astor watches the court and clerk feeds daily and tells you when something new lands in your county. If you already pay for PropStream, the honest framing is that we're not a replacement for its research breadth; we're the alerting layer for two specific life events.

PropStream details are drawn from their own public materials as of August 2026 and may have changed. Check with them directly before deciding. We deliberately don't quote their prices, because most vendors in this category quote per county rather than publishing a rate card.
