looking for honest opinions
Hey BP —lurker here, first-time poster on the commercial side.
I've been sourcing multifamily and hospitality deals for a while, and my biggest drain has always been the top of the funnel. Every week: 10-15 hours scrolling LoopNet and Crexi, eyeballing cap rates, ruling out 95% of listings before anything is worth a real underwriting pass.
Got tired of it and spent the last few months building a tool for myself. It:
- Pulls listings from multiple sources automatically
- Scores each deal A / B / C based on price per unit, cap rate vs. market, location, condition, and a few other factors
- Auto-generates a preliminary OM so I can make the go/no-go call in minutes
I opened it up publicly a couple weeks ago. Free tier lets you see the pipeline; paid plans unlock full financials and OMs.
Before I invest more time, I'd genuinely love feedback from this crowd:
1. For those actively sourcing deals — is filtering really the bottleneck for you too, or is it something else (lender relationships, broker access, market intel)?
2. What would make a scoring engine actually trustworthy to you? What factors are non-negotiable?
3. Anything you've tried (Crexi Intelligence, Reonomy, CoStar) that you actually liked — or hated?
