What DealSauce does well

Price. The Mild plan is one of the cheaper ways to get nationwide data with motivated seller filters.
Unlimited skip tracing on Hot. If you skip trace heavily, the flat price can beat per-record fees elsewhere.
Comps built in. The comp calculator helps you check ARV before you call back. Pair it with our ARV calculator and ARV guide.
Buyer and lender audiences. The Hot plan helps you find landlords, flippers and private lenders, which is useful for building a cash buyers list.

Limitations

No built-in dialer or full CRM, so you will add other tools for calling and follow-up.
The gap between Mild and Hot is large if you mainly want more skip tracing.
A smaller user community than PropStream or BatchLeads, so fewer tutorials and templates.

DealSauce review verdict

DealSauce is a reasonable choice for a solo wholesaler watching costs, especially one who skip traces a lot. Run the free trial on your target market and compare list quality and phone connect rates with one of the larger platforms before you commit.

How to build a motivated seller list in DealSauce, step by step

Any property data platform is only as useful as the lists you build with it. Here is a repeatable process that works in DealSauce or any comparable tool. Adjust filter names to match what you see in the app.

Pick one market. Start with a single county or a handful of zip codes where you know cash buyers are active. Spreading a small budget across a whole state usually produces too few responses in any one place to learn from.
Set your property type. Most wholesalers start with single-family homes and small multifamily properties up to four units, because that is what most cash buyers purchase.
Filter for equity. Owners with little or no equity cannot sell at a discount. Filter for high equity or free-and-clear properties so the numbers can work.
Add one or two motivation signals. Absentee ownership, long ownership, tax delinquency, pre-foreclosure, probate, code violations or vacancy. Stack two signals on the same property where you can; our list stacking guide explains why stacked lists respond better.
Exclude what you cannot buy. Remove properties outside your buyers’ price range, commercial parcels, and owners such as government entities or large institutional landlords.
Check the count. A first list of a few hundred to a couple of thousand records is easier to work and measure than tens of thousands.
Skip trace. Pull phone numbers and emails. On the Hot plan, skip tracing is advertised as unlimited; on Mild, watch how your usage is counted.
Scrub before you call. Run numbers against the National Do Not Call Registry and any state lists, and remove litigators and opt-outs before any outreach.
Export or push to your CRM and dialer. DealSauce does not include a full CRM or dialer, so decide where calls and follow-up will happen before you start.

Do Not Call and TCPA rules apply to skip-traced numbers

Skip tracing finds phone numbers; it does not give you permission to call or text them. The National Do Not Call Registry’s business FAQ says telemarketers and sellers must search the registry at least once every 31 days and drop registered numbers from their call lists. Texting and calling with automated systems carry additional consent requirements under the Telephone Consumer Protection Act, and the FCC’s consumer guide to stopping unwanted robocalls and texts explains those rules from the homeowner’s side.

Several states also maintain their own do-not-call lists and stricter calling-hour or registration rules. Read our TCPA guide for wholesalers before you load a skip-traced list into any dialer or texting platform.

Testing data quality during the free trial

DealSauce advertises a 14-day free trial. Two weeks is enough to compare data quality if you plan the test before you start.

Choose a sample. Pull the same list, for example 200 absentee owners with high equity in one zip code, in DealSauce and in the tool you are comparing it with.
Compare record counts. Large differences in how many properties match the same filters can reveal gaps or stale data.
Spot-check ownership. Check 20 records against the county assessor or recorder. Do owner names and mailing addresses match?
Measure phone quality. Dial a small, DNC-scrubbed sample from each tool and track wrong numbers, disconnected numbers and right-party contacts.
Check comps. Run comps on three properties you know well and compare them with recent sold data. Our comps guide explains what a good comp set looks like.
Time your workflow. Note how long it takes to build, skip trace and export a list. Saved minutes add up over a year.

Keep the results in a simple spreadsheet. The decision should rest on contact rates and accuracy in your market, not on the feature list.

A worked example: Mild vs. Hot vs. paying per skip trace

The figures below are hypothetical and rounded, and they use the published monthly prices shown above. Your usage and vendor terms may differ, so confirm current pricing before you decide.

A wholesaler skip traces about 1,500 records a month for cold calling and texting.

Scenario	Monthly software cost	Skip tracing cost	Total
DealSauce Mild plus a separate skip tracing service at a hypothetical $0.10 per record	$97	$150	$247
DealSauce Hot with unlimited skip tracing as advertised	$297	$0	$297
A tool at $99 per month plus $0.12 per record	$99	$180	$279

At 1,500 records, Mild plus outside skip tracing comes out slightly cheaper than Hot in this example. If volume rises to 3,000 records a month, outside skip tracing at $0.10 would cost $300, and Hot’s flat price becomes the better deal. Run your own volume through the same math before choosing a plan, and remember that annual billing lowers the monthly figure on both plans if you are confident you will use the tool all year.

Software is usually a small part of total marketing cost. Calling and texting tools, mail, and your time cost more, which is why a few points of better contact rate can matter more than a $50 price difference.

Using DealSauce on the buyer side

Wholesaling has two sides, and the Hot plan’s audience tools point at the second one. Investors who have recently bought with cash, landlords who own several rentals, and private lenders are the people you want on your buyers list.

Pull recent cash purchases in your target zip codes from the last six to twelve months.
Sort by buyers who purchased more than once; repeat buyers are more likely to buy again.
Note the price range, property type and condition each buyer favors so you can match deals to their buy box.
Contact buyers through permitted channels, then confirm proof of funds before you send them your first contract.

Our guide to defining a buyer’s buy box shows how to record what each buyer wants.

Where each DealSauce feature fits in a wholesaling workflow

Workflow step	DealSauce feature (as advertised)	What you still need
Find motivated sellers	Property records with motivated seller filters	A clear target market and buy box
Get contact details	Skip tracing and marketing suite	DNC scrubbing and consent records
Reach owners	Export of lists	A dialer, texting platform or mail vendor
Track conversations	Not a full CRM	A CRM with pipelines and follow-up tasks
Value the property	Comp calculator and analysis wizard	A walkthrough and repair estimate
Spot opportunities	Deal alerts and market heat map	Judgment about which areas your buyers want
Sell the contract	Buyer, landlord and lender audiences on Hot	A vetted buyers list and assignment contract

Seeing the gaps in one table makes it easier to budget for the rest of your stack before the trial ends.

A 30-day plan for your first month with DealSauce

Days 1 to 3: Define your market, buy box and two list types, such as absentee high-equity owners and tax-delinquent owners. Set up your CRM and dialer first so leads have somewhere to go.
Days 4 to 7: Build both lists, skip trace them, scrub against DNC lists, and run the data quality checks described above.
Days 8 to 21: Work the lists consistently through your chosen channels. Log every conversation and outcome in your CRM, not in the data tool.
Days 15 to 21: Use the buyer-side tools, or county records, to identify 20 to 50 active cash buyers in the same zip codes and start conversations with them.
Days 22 to 30: Review contact rates, appointments and offers by list. Keep the list type that produced conversations, drop or rework the other, and decide whether the plan level fits your actual skip tracing volume.

At the end of the month you should know whether the data produces conversations in your market, which is the only result that justifies a subscription.

Questions to ask before you pay for a plan

Use the trial period to get clear answers, in writing where possible:

How often are property, ownership and pre-foreclosure records updated in your county?
How is skip tracing usage counted on each plan, and what happens if you exceed it?
Can you export full lists, including phone numbers and emails, in a format your CRM accepts?
Does the platform mark numbers that appear on the National Do Not Call Registry, or do you need a separate scrub?
What happens to your saved lists and notes if you downgrade or cancel?
Is there a limit on how many users can share one account?

Signs your DealSauce lists are working

After 30 to 60 days of consistent outreach, look for these signals rather than raw record counts:

A steady share of calls reaching the actual owner rather than wrong numbers or relatives.
Conversations that turn into property details, photos or walkthrough appointments.
At least a few owners whose asking price is within reach of your buyers’ numbers.
Repeat interest from cash buyers when you share deals pulled from the same zip codes.

If contact rates are low across every list type, test a second data source on the same addresses before you blame your scripts or your market.

When DealSauce is the wrong choice

You want everything in one system. If you would rather pay more for data, calling and CRM in one place, a bundled platform may save time.
You need very deep or unusual filters. Larger platforms with bigger user communities may offer more filter combinations and more tutorials.
Your market has thin data. In some rural counties every national data provider struggles. Test your county before committing.
You skip trace rarely. If you mostly drive for dollars or use direct mail without phone outreach, unlimited skip tracing on Hot may be money you do not need to spend.
You are not ready to follow DNC and TCPA rules. More phone numbers only create more risk if your compliance process is not in place.

Mistakes beginners make with any data tool

Pulling huge lists and contacting each owner once, instead of following up with a smaller list over months.
Skipping the equity filter and marketing to owners who cannot sell at a discount.
Trusting automated property values without checking comps.
Forgetting that skip-traced numbers still need DNC scrubbing.
Switching tools every month and never collecting enough data to compare results.

Frequently asked questions

How much is DealSauce?

DealSauce lists its Mild plan at $97 a month ($78 billed annually) and Hot at $297 a month ($238 billed annually).

Does DealSauce include skip tracing?

Yes. Skip tracing is part of the marketing suite, and the Hot plan advertises unlimited skip tracing.

Is DealSauce good for wholesaling?

It covers the core needs of a wholesaler, which are finding motivated sellers, getting their contact details and pulling comps, at a lower price than some competitors. You will still need a dialer and a CRM.

Can I use DealSauce for comps and ARV?

Yes, it includes a comp calculator and analysis wizard. Use it as a starting point, then confirm with sold data and a walkthrough. Our ARV guide covers the full method.

Does DealSauce work in every state?

DealSauce advertises nationwide property records, but data depth varies by county. Your outreach and contracts must also follow each state’s rules; see the state guides.

Should I cancel PropStream or BatchLeads for DealSauce?

Only after testing both on the same market. If DealSauce matches their contact rates and data accuracy for your area at a lower cost, switching can make sense. If not, the savings disappear in fewer conversations.

What else do I need besides DealSauce?

A dialer or texting platform with consent and opt-out handling, a CRM, a contract template reviewed by a local attorney, and a buyers list.

Is DealSauce better for beginners or experienced wholesalers?

Its lower entry price suits beginners testing a market, while the Hot plan’s unlimited skip tracing and audience tools suit wholesalers with steady outreach volume. Either way, the results depend on how consistently you work the lists.

How many records should I pull at first?

Start with a list you can actually work several times, often a few hundred to a couple of thousand records. Contacting 500 owners five times usually teaches you more, and produces more deals, than contacting 10,000 owners once. Expand only after you know which list types bring conversations in your market.
