Propelio is a real estate investor platform offering driving-for-dollars, MLS comps, lead list building, and unlimited skip tracing starting with a generous free plan.
Propelio is a real estate investor software platform that bundles driving-for-dollars, lead list building, MLS comps, and skip tracing under one subscription — with a free plan that includes more than most competitors charge for. The platform is built for Texas-based investors as its primary market but serves investors across the U.S.
The core driving-for-dollars tool (called Spy Drive in earlier versions, now simply their DFD feature) lets team drivers capture properties on the go using GPS-tracked routes. Even on the free plan you get driving access. The platform pulls from a database of 17M+ active and sold listings for MLS-comparable sales data updated every 15 minutes — useful for quick ARV calculations in the field.
Skip tracing is included on all paid plans without per-trace limits, plus bulk skip trace credits reset monthly. Lead list exports are available on all plans including free (100 exports), scaling to 100K on the Advanced tier.
Propelio is best for early-stage wholesalers and investors who want to keep costs low while still accessing solid data tools. The free plan is genuinely useful — driving for dollars, 100 list exports, and 3 comps per month — so you can learn the tool before spending anything.
The $29/month Beginner plan is one of the most affordable paid tiers in the category that includes unlimited skip tracing and MLS comp access. The Advanced plan at $98/month adds up to 10 field drivers, making it practical for small teams doing coordinated driving campaigns.
Investors who need deep nationwide list building with 300+ criteria (probate, tax delinquent, etc.) or heavy CRM workflows will outgrow Propelio quickly and may need to supplement with a more data-heavy platform.
Propelio punches above its price point. The free plan removes the barrier to entry entirely, and the $29/month Beginner tier with unlimited skip tracing and MLS comps is a genuine value for a solo wholesaler getting started. The Spy Drive / DFD feature handles field prospecting well, and the 15-minute MLS data refresh means ARVs are as current as they need to be for fast deal analysis.
The trade-off is limited depth compared to PropStream or PropertyRadar — fewer list-building filters, lighter integration options, and a smaller nationwide footprint. For Texas investors especially, Propelio has historically been the go-to budget option. Outside Texas, validate data coverage before committing.
