BatchLeads vs. PropStream vs. Goliath Data: Who Wins in Accuracy?

When your business depends on finding sellers before anyone else, data accuracy is everything.

The wrong address or an outdated phone number doesn’t just waste time but can cost you entire deals.

BatchLeads, PropStream, and Goliath Data all claim to provide reliable property and owner information, but they’re not built the same way. The real question isn’t who has more data, it’s who has the right data.

Let’s look at how these three compare across accuracy, freshness, and ROI.

1. The Core Difference: How Each Platform Handles Data

PropStream focuses on being a research tool for investors. You can pull ownership, lien, and MLS data in seconds, making it a favorite for list building. But because it relies heavily on national aggregators, some information can lag behind reality, especially in smaller or slower-to-update counties.

BatchLeads builds around high-volume outreach. Its skip-tracing feature helps you find contact info quickly, but its strength in volume can sometimes mean weaker verification. You’ll get a lot of data, but not always the right data.

Goliath Data is built differently. Instead of pulling giant lists and hoping the information is still accurate, it continuously verifies property and owner details through live data streams.

This means your outreach starts from verified, up-to-date owner info, not recycled lists. That verification happens automatically through its data pipelines that refresh owner records in real time.

Verdict:
PropStream and BatchLeads prioritize reach.
Goliath Data prioritizes reliability.

2. Data Freshness and Verification

• PropStream: Refreshes periodically (often weekly or monthly), depending on public record cycles. For most markets, it’s good enough, but in fast-moving or high-turnover markets, it can miss recent transactions or ownership changes.
  
  
  
  
  

• BatchLeads: Updates data frequently but focuses on rapid delivery for outbound marketing. Its skip tracing is quick, but results are only as good as the underlying sources. Users often find duplicate or invalid contact numbers that need manual cleanup.
  
  
  
  
  

• Goliath Data: Refreshes continuously and cross-checks ownership, contact, and behavioral signals. It doesn’t just tell you who owns the property, it tells you if that contact info still connects.
  
  
  
  
  

Verdict:
In real-time accuracy and data freshness, Goliath Data stands out clearly.

3. Skip Tracing and Owner Contact Accuracy

PropStream: Built-in skip tracing is convenient for beginners but offers mid-range accuracy. Numbers are often unverified until you actually start calling.

BatchLeads: Known for fast skip tracing at scale. Great for bulk campaigns, but you’ll typically spend time re-verifying contacts or removing bad numbers afterward.

Goliath Data: Puts skip tracing through a verification loop. Each owner record is validated across multiple data layers before you even hit “outreach.” You don’t just get contact info, you get verified contact info that actually reaches the person you’re trying to speak with.

Verdict:
If your goal is connecting with real sellers instead of chasing disconnected numbers, Goliath Data wins in contact accuracy.

4. Lead Quality vs. Lead Quantity

Accuracy doesn’t just mean a clean list, it means actionable data.

• PropStream gives you large lead lists with dozens of filters. You’ll still need to do the work of identifying who’s actually motivated.

• BatchLeads focuses on speed and quantity, often favoring volume over precision.

• Goliath Data uses predictive modeling to score motivation and filter out noise before you ever launch a campaign. The result? Fewer leads, but more closings.

Verdict:
If your strategy is quality over quantity, Goliath Data converts accuracy into profit.

5. ROI: The Cost of Inaccurate Data

PropStream and BatchLeads both have relatively low upfront costs, but if 20–30% of your data is wrong, your “cost per real lead” increases quickly.
Goliath Data’s approach is to spend less time fixing bad data and more time working real opportunities. Its accuracy advantage translates directly into lower acquisition costs over time.

6. Which Investors Each Platform Fits Best

Final Verdict

Accuracy determines profitability, and that’s where Goliath Data separates itself.

• PropStream gives you convenience.

• BatchLeads gives you volume.

• Goliath Data gives you verified, actionable leads that are ready to close.

If your focus is connecting with real property owners instead of chasing outdated records, the choice is simple: go with the platform built for precision.
