How we picked
Real-estate CRMs live or die on three things: lead capture velocity (web forms, IDX integration, portal leads), follow-up automation (drip nurture, SMS), and transaction tracking (pre-list, under contract, closed). Every pick below ships those three out of the box.
What to consider
- Solo agents — pricing matters more than depth. Cloze and the entry tiers of Follow Up Boss are the sweet spot.
- Teams — go for round-robin lead routing and team accountability. BoldTrail and Lofty are built for this.
- Brokerages — Propertybase or BoldTrail's brokerage tier are the only ones that scale to 50+ seats without bolt-ons.
Pricing snapshot
Real-estate CRMs cluster between $25 and $99/user/mo depending on tier. Lead-gen add-ons (IDX, Zillow integration) typically add another $50–$200/mo per seat, so the published price isn't the all-in.
Trial advice
Don't pick a CRM cold — every vendor on this list offers a 14-day trial. Pick two, run them in parallel for one week of inbound leads, and keep whichever one your team actually checks every morning.
