ListSource vs. PropStream vs. Goliath Data: Feature Comparison for Real-Estate Investors

If you’re evaluating lead-generation and data platforms for your real-estate investing stack, understanding feature differences matters more than just pricing.

The right set of tools can make your outreach faster, cleaner, and more effective.

Here’s a side-by-side breakdown of how ListSource, PropStream, and Goliath Data compare, and why Goliath comes out on top for advanced users.

1. Data Coverage & Search Capabilities

• ListSource delivers large datasets for direct-marketing lists. It emphasizes filtering by owner demographics, property type, mortgage status, and more.

• PropStream offers a broad nationwide property database (160 + million properties), advanced filters (100+), plus skip-tracing and comps. 

• Goliath Data uses live data pipelines that constantly refresh property, owner, and motivation signals, giving you not just who owns what, but who may be ready to sell.

Take-away:

ListSource and PropStream excel in volume and reach. 

Goliath adds the second layer of intent and timeliness.

2. Lead Generation & Owner Contact Info

• With ListSource, you build and export lists, but contact info (like phone/email) is limited or requires add-ons.

• PropStream integrates skip tracing and marketing tools (emails, postcards, landing pages).

• Goliath Data embeds verified owner-contact info in its acquisition pipeline, so leads arrive pre-qualified and ready to engage.

Take-away:

PropStream offers more marketing features out of the box than ListSource.
Goliath gives you contact readiness built into the system.

3. Deal Analysis & Valuation Tools

• ListSource offers basic filters but is less focused on valuation or rehab metrics.

• PropStream provides comparable sales, rehab calculators, ADU tools, and detailed metrics for flips and rentals. 

• Goliath Data pairs its lead-flow features with analytics, so when you run a deal, you’re doing so on a higher-probability opportunity that’s already filtered.

Take-away:
If you’re analyzing deals, PropStream is strong.
If you want an analysis built around leads likely to transact, Goliath pulls ahead.

4. Workflow, Automation & Pipeline Management

• ListSource is essentially list creation + export. You’ll need external tools for outreach and follow-up.

• PropStream includes team management, mobile-app access, list automators, and marketing integrations. 

• Goliath Data offers “lead to close” automation: once a lead is sourced, it moves through your pipeline with tasks, follow-up assignments, and status updates, all in one dashboard.

Take-away:
ListSource requires stitching together tools.
PropStream gives more integrated functionality.
Goliath offers full funnel automation.

5. Scalability & Team Collaboration

• ListSource works well for individuals running campaigns in one market.

• PropStream supports teams with team members and permissions, but many overheads remain.

• Goliath Data was built for scaling, a unified command center where multiple users monitor tasks, leads, and performance in real time.

Take-away:

For a team or multi-market operation, Goliath is the most scalable choice.

6. Pricing & Value Proposition

• ListSource: Value comes from list volume; long-term cost depends on list size and export frequency.

• PropStream: Subscription model with more features; you may still need external tools for full coverage.

• Goliath Data: Higher upfront cost, but the value kicker is fewer wasted leads, higher intent, and a consolidated tool-stack, so cost-per-closed-deal often drops.

7. Final Verdict

While each platform has a place, if your goal is not just more leads, but better leads, faster analysis, and a smoother process, then Goliath Data clearly stands out.
