Switching from InvestorBase to Deal Run: Get the Same Buyers for Less
If you are considering switching from InvestorBase to Deal Run, this guide walks through the migration process, highlights feature differences, and helps you transition without losing momentum in your business.
Why wholesalers switch from InvestorBase
- Missing features: Many wholesalers outgrow InvestorBase when they need buyer identification, deal marketing pages, or built-in outreach that InvestorBase does not include
- Cost efficiency: Deal Run bundles more features at $99/month, potentially replacing multiple subscriptions
- Workflow consolidation: Using one platform instead of 2-3 separate tools reduces friction and data silos
What Deal Run adds
- Investor identification: Search any address and find active landlords and flippers nearby, ranked by relevance
- Skip tracing included: Contact information for investors on all paid plans
- Deal marketing pages: Create shareable property pages with photos, pricing, and offer submission forms
- AI-powered analysis: Automated ARV estimates, repair cost analysis, and comp scoring
- Outreach tools: Contact investors directly from the platform
Migration steps
- Export your data: Download contacts, saved properties, and deal history from InvestorBase as CSV files before canceling
- Create your Deal Run account: Sign up at dealrun.ai and complete the 7-day free trial setup
- Import contacts: Upload your buyer list and contact CSV to Deal Run's buyer CRM
- Set up your first deal: Enter a property address and walk through the full workflow: analysis, investor search, marketing page
- Cancel InvestorBase: Once you confirm Deal Run covers your workflow, cancel InvestorBase to avoid double-paying
