Why Investors Switch to FlipMantis
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.
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.
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.
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.”
