The best CRE deal sourcing platform scores every opportunity before analysts spend a minute on it.

The best CRE deal sourcing platforms in 2026 automate broker package intake, score deals against your buy box before any analyst time is spent, and maintain a searchable deal registry. AcquiOS automates the full intake workflow: it monitors email for broker OMs, creates deal records automatically, and assigns an AcquiScore with PROCEED or CAUTION. Other platforms in the category include Dealpath (pipeline tracking only), Altrio (relationship management), and Archer (deal sourcing CRM), AcquiOS adds the automated intake-to-underwriting layer that pipeline tracking tools do not include.

AcquiOS monitors your connected email accounts for incoming broker packages. When a new OM arrives, it automatically extracts deal attributes (property name, type, location, asking price, key metrics), creates a deal record in the pipeline, and triggers AcquiScore to rate the opportunity against your buy box. The entire intake process takes seconds. No analyst opens an email to manually enter data.

Dealpath requires manual deal entry - someone must log each deal by hand. AcquiOS creates deal records automatically from broker emails. Dealpath tracks pipeline stages but does not score deals or underwrite them. AcquiOS scores every incoming deal against your buy box and underwrites the ones that pass. For deal sourcing specifically, AcquiOS eliminates the manual intake workflow that still governs most CRE teams.

AcquiScore is AcquiOS's AI deal scoring system. It rates every incoming deal from 0 to 100 based on how well it fits your firm's documented investment criteria - asset class, geography, size range, return thresholds, and risk parameters. High-scoring deals get a PROCEED recommendation. Low-scoring deals get a CAUTION flag with the specific criteria they fail. This lets acquisition teams triage high deal volume without analyst review of every package.

AcquiOS maintains a permanent deal registry of every property your team has ever been shown or screened. When a new deal arrives, it automatically checks for prior contact with the same property, broker, or seller. If a match is found, it flags the history - prior contact dates, underwriting outcomes, analyst involved, and pass rationale - before anyone responds. This prevents two analysts from calling the same broker about the same deal without knowing it.

AcquiOS supports deal intake and scoring across multifamily, office, industrial, retail, self-storage, and mixed-use assets. Buy box criteria can be configured per asset class, so a multifamily deal is scored against multifamily-specific thresholds while an industrial deal is scored separately. AcquiOS recognizes the standard document formats brokers use for each asset type.
