What is DealGround and what are the core use cases?

Brokers use DealGround to perform ownership research, map tenants, source off-market deals, and evaluate trade areas. Developers, investors, and CRE professionals use DealGround for market analysis, rent comps, site selection, tenant mix analysis, and faster underwriting.

How does DealGround compare to CRE listing platforms?

DealGround is not a listing service. It’s a data-first CRE platform that gives you access to on-market and off-market properties, historical brochures, title records, verified tenant data, and lease information that listing sites don’t offer.
Listing platforms show advertised deals.

DealGround lets you search the entire market by:


  • Current NOI
  • Lease terms
  • Lease expiration
  • Tenant type
  • Property subtype
  • Trade area
  • Rent roll data

This gives brokers and investors actionable insights beyond what other services provide.

Is anything I upload private to my team and me?

Yes. All brochures, documents, Saved Lists, notes, and internal uploads are private to you and your team. DealGround does not sell or share your data. If you choose to share files with clients or partners, that’s fully optional — you control access at all times.

What if I haven’t stored many brochures yet?

DealGround provides all users with a starter kit of over 15k public CRE brochures (Offering Memorandums) and data on 7M tenants.


You can immediately:

  • Map brands (Dutch Bros, Chipotle, Walgreens, Raising Cane’s, etc.)
  • Search by category (QSR, grocery, medical, auto, gas, urgent care)
  • Pull title data, past sales, ownership entities, and contact information
  • Analyze rent comps and trade area patterns

This lets you source deals from day one, even before your private brochure library builds. From discovery to discussion with owners in minutes.
