description RealScout Overview

RealScout is a residential real-estate search and client-collaboration platform designed for real-estate agents, brokerages, and prospective home buyers. Agents can create property searches, send listing alerts, and review client activity while buyers compare homes and record preferences through a shared interface. The service uses multiple-listing-service data where supported, keeping the agent involved in the search process. It is intended as an agent-branded alternative to conducting the entire home search through public listing portals.

help RealScout FAQ

What is RealScout and who is it designed for?

RealScout is a residential real-estate collaboration platform designed for real-estate agents, brokerages, and their buyer clients. Agents use it to create branded property searches, send listing alerts, and track which homes their clients are viewing, while buyers compare properties and record preferences within the same interface.

How is RealScout different from Zillow or Redfin?

Zillow and Redfin are consumer-facing portals where users browse listings independently, often seeing advertisements from competing agents. RealScout is an agent-facing tool that facilitates collaboration between a specific agent and their client, without displaying competing agent ads or automated valuations like Zillow's Zestimate.

Is RealScout free for home buyers?

RealScout is free for buyers who are invited by an agent who subscribes to the platform. The SaaS subscription is paid by the agent or brokerage, not by the home buyer.

What MLS markets does RealScout cover?

RealScout integrates with MLS feeds across numerous U.S. markets, but coverage varies by region. Agents should confirm with RealScout whether their local MLS is supported before subscribing.
