What CapScout does

Every tool an investor actually needs.

From instant whole-list triage to a full AI underwrite, deal modeling, neighborhood intelligence, and shareable branded reports. Built for the investor who vets dozens of listings to find the one that pencils.

ScoutScore

The whole list triaged before you click.

Most tools score one property at a time, after you have already picked it. ScoutScore scores every result the moment it loads, assigning a band and two or three personalized, market-relative tags tuned to your goal. The list self-sorts.

  • A Strong / Fair / Weak band plus specific tags like top yield, cheapest per square foot, or a recent price cut.
  • Tags are market-relative: they reflect how each listing compares to the others on the page, not a generic benchmark.
  • Sort by Scout match to surface your best candidates at the top.

ScoutSense analysis

An AI underwrite, not an AI calculator.

Give ScoutSense a property and about 60 to 75 seconds, and it returns a structured underwriting opinion grounded in real market data. The data-quality panel tells you how confident it is and flags any thin-data areas. No black box.

  • Score, narrative, risk register, negotiation target, exit strategy, and personalized fit in one report.
  • Grounded in RentCast comps, FEMA flood, US Census demographics, and FHFA appreciation data.
  • A confidence level and data-quality flags on every analysis. The AI tells you when it is less certain.
Ask ScoutSense

Every underwrite opens a conversation.

The report isn't the end — it's the analyst sitting down across from you. Ask what happens at a lower offer, poke at a risk, stress-test the rent. ScoutSense answers from this deal's own underwrite, not from thin air.

  • Grounded answers: every reply draws on the deal's analysis — the comps, the risks, the verdict — and shows what it used.
  • Real math on demand: ask a what-if and the deal modeling engine recomputes the actual numbers, before and after.
  • Keep it going: a conversation comes with every underwrite, and question packs let you keep pressing when a deal deserves it.
What if I offer $245k instead of asking?
Recalculated — your baseline assumptions
Offer$262,000 → $245,000
Cap rate7.8% → 8.3%
Cash flow / mo+$550 → +$638

At $245k this clears your 8% target with room — and the seller's 71 days on market says the ask is negotiable. Anchor low; the comps carry you.

Saved-search alerts

CapScout watches the market so you don't have to.

Save any search as a named monitor: the location, your price range, your buy box, and rental or flip. CapScout checks for new listings that match and notifies you on your schedule, in an in-app feed and an email digest. You hear about the deal before most investors have run the search.

  • Daily or weekly alerts, in-app feed plus email digest.
  • Each alert is keyed to your full buy box: price, beds, baths, sqft, days on market, and more.
  • The free plan includes one saved search; upgrade for unlimited monitors.

Full underwriting suite

Pressure-test a deal, not just the math.

Most deal modelers stop at cash flow and cap rate. CapScout goes further: tax treatment, exit-strategy trade-offs, rehab line items, and multi-year projections, all updating live as you adjust assumptions. When you're done, you know exactly where the deal breaks: the rent drop, the rate, or the rehab overrun that flips it red.

  • Tax modeling: depreciation schedules, after-tax cash flow, and a 1031-exchange comparison toggle.
  • Exit-strategy comparison: flip vs. BRRRR vs. long-term hold, side by side on the same deal.
  • Sensitivity analysis: stress-test rent, rate, and price on a two-way heatmap to find where the deal breaks.
  • Flip rehab budget builder: line-item costs with per-square-foot presets that roll up into your deal model.

Location intelligence

Know what the listing doesn't tell you.

An address is not a neighborhood. CapScout pulls the data that never appears on a listing card and feeds the same data straight into the ScoutSense verdict, so the AI's read is grounded in where the property actually sits.

  • FEMA flood zone and special-flood-hazard status for every property.
  • US Census ACS demographics and FHFA appreciation by ZIP.
  • An interactive map with the subject and comparable sales, plotted with distance rings.
