REI Reply's site can become unresponsive during mobile testing
Heavy scripts cause 8+ second blocking delays on their pages
Laggy UI means fewer follow-ups completed per session

Why Investors Switch to FlipMantis

1

No surprise usage bills

REI Reply's $97/mo is just the door fee—AI calls, SMS, and emails all add usage charges. FlipMantis lets you set spending caps so you always know your monthly cost.

2

One platform instead of three

REI Reply handles follow-up, but you still need PropStream for data and another CRM for deals. FlipMantis does all three.

3

Find leads AND nurture them

REI Reply assumes you already have leads. FlipMantis helps you find motivated sellers, score them with AI, and then automate follow-up.

4

Mobile-first for modern investors

Capture leads in the field with our D4D app and they automatically enter your follow-up sequences. REI Reply has no mobile solution.

I was paying for PropStream, REI Reply, and a separate CRM. FlipMantis replaced all three and I'm actually closing more deals because everything is connected.
