PropertyShark costs $59.95 per month for its Pro tier, $79.95 per month for Elite, and $169.95 per month for Platinum, as of October 2026. As a property research platform, PropertyShark prices its data by the number of monthly reports a user can pull and the depth of information those reports contain. For teams that sell to commercial buildings, the decision often comes down to whether they need to research individual parcels or if they need a bulk list of decision-makers to call.
Disclosure: Scout Data is our product; treat that entry as a maker’s pitch and the rest as our honest read.
PropertyShark subscription tiers
PropertyShark offers three main individual subscription tiers, with discounts available for annual billing. A group subscription for multi-user teams requires a custom quote from their sales team.
- Pro ($59.95/month): Includes 175 reports per month, providing ownership information, sales history, value estimates, and zoning data.
- Elite ($79.95/month): Increases the limit to 200 reports per month and adds details on foreclosures, pre-foreclosures, REOs, and property auctions.
- Platinum ($169.95/month): The highest individual tier includes 250 reports per month. Crucially for outbound sales, this is the only tier that reveals the real owners behind LLCs, owner phone numbers, and allows list exports.
Pricing and feature limits are as advertised on PropertyShark’s subscriptions page in October 2026. Consult their website for the most current terms.
When a research seat fits
PropertyShark is built for deep, parcel-by-parcel research. It excels when a broker or investor needs to pull the deed, check for liens, review the sales history, and understand the zoning for one specific building. If your workflow involves spending fifteen minutes analyzing a single property before deciding whether to pursue a deal, the Platinum tier’s $169.95 monthly cost is easily justified. You can compare its approach to other research tools in our guide on PropertyShark vs Reonomy.
When you need a list instead
A research seat breaks down when the goal is outbound volume. A commercial roofer targeting every flat roof in a recent hail path does not need a deep dive into the zoning history of each parcel; they need the name and phone number of the person authorized to approve a roof replacement.
If a sales representative has to open 100 properties in PropertyShark, pierce the LLCs, find the principals, and export the numbers, they are spending their day doing data entry instead of selling. For a comparison of tools that offer bulk lists without the manual research step, review our breakdown of PropertyShark alternatives and Reonomy alternatives.
Where Scout Data fits
Commercial data from Scout Data is built for the outbound step. Instead of selling a research subscription with a monthly report limit, Scout Data delivers owner dossiers for the exact commercial buildings you target.
You specify your territory and the criteria—such as flat roofs with recent hail damage or buildings with existing solar arrays. Scout Data returns a dossier for each building that names the operating business, the entity on title, the decision-makers with their mobile and office numbers, and every other parcel they own. It is delivered as a document package, quoted per territory after you review five sample dossiers, with no subscription seat required.
Frequently asked questions
Does PropertyShark offer a free trial?
PropertyShark does not offer a full free trial, but it does provide a free sample report to demonstrate the depth of its data before a user commits to a paid subscription.
Can PropertyShark find the real owner of an LLC?
Yes, PropertyShark provides the real owners behind LLCs, but this feature is only included in its highest tier, the Platinum plan. Lower tiers will show the registered entity but not necessarily the individual principal.
Does PropertyShark include owner phone numbers?
PropertyShark includes owner phone numbers in its Platinum subscription. Users on the Pro or Elite tiers do not have access to this contact information.
