Scouq vs Roofstock
Roofstock and Scouq solve different problems: Roofstock is a certified SFR marketplace where you buy pre-vetted turnkey properties, while Scouq is an analysis platform you bring any address to. If you want to source a ready-to-close deal through a marketplace, Roofstock has inventory Scouq does not offer. If you want to analyze properties you source yourself, track a portfolio, or compare multiple strategies before committing, Scouq works without a subscription fee to get started.

When to pick Roofstock
- You want to buy a turnkey SFR without finding and negotiating yourself -- Roofstock's marketplace brings pre-certified inventory to you.

When to pick Scouq
- You are analyzing deals you source yourself -- off-market, MLS, auctions -- and need multi-strategy scoring on any address, not just listed properties.
- You want to start without a subscription. Scouq's free tier covers basic deal scoring with no payment required.
- You care about methodology transparency. Scouq publishes how every score is calculated at /methodology.
