How to Spot

Look for "The Ugly House"

Tall grass, boarded windows, peeling paint, piled-up mail, code violations

Drop a Pin & Take Photos

Open the app, drop a pin at the property, snap 3-5 clear photos

3

Add Notes

Briefly describe what you see: "Vacant, tall grass, for rent sign up for months"

4

Wait for the Deal to Close

If an investor closes a deal on your pin, you get $500 — simple as that

No Upfront Cost

Free to sign up. Free to drop pins. You only earn when a deal closes.

No License Required

You're a Data Scout, not a real estate agent. No certifications needed.

Real Example: How Everyone Wins

Day 1: Spotter Spots the House

Maria, an Uber driver, spots a vacant house with tall grass at 1234 Elm St, Austin, TX 78704. She drops a pin, snaps 4 photos, and adds notes: "Vacant, overgrown yard, mail piling up."

Day 2: Investor Unlocks the Pin

John, a PRO investor, sees the pin in his target zip. He pays $3 for skip trace data and discovers the owner lives out of state. Tax records show equity potential.

Day 7: Investor Contacts Owner

John calls the owner, who is tired of managing a rental from 500 miles away. John makes a $185,000 cash offer. Owner accepts.

Day 21: Deal Closes, Everyone Wins

  • Maria (Spotter): Earns $500 bounty for dropping the pin
  • John (Investor): Flips the house for $215,000 — $30K profit minus $1,500 Pinseed fee = $28,500 net
  • Owner (Homeowner): Fast cash sale, no agent fees, no repairs needed

Total Value Created: $30,000+

That's the power of a crowdsourced marketplace. Everyone gets what they need.
