LoopNet shows listings. We show owners.
LoopNet is the public marketplace for commercial real estate that brokers have decided to list. CRE Finder indexes every commercial parcel in the country and resolves the owner — including the 90%+ that will never list publicly.
LoopNet vs CRE Finder · Coverage
LoopNet indexes the commercial properties that have a marketing flyer behind them. CRE Finder indexes parcels — what county records show is owned, who owns it, and how to reach them. The first is a slice of the market. The second is the market.
LoopNet vs CRE Finder · Workflow
On LoopNet, the workflow ends at a broker callback. On CRE Finder, the workflow ends with you dialing the owner. Two different jobs to be done — both have a place, but they aren't substitutes.
When LoopNet is the better choice
We are not for everyone. If your workflow is built around listed product, LoopNet is the better tool. Honest version:
If your deal flow is broker-syndicated listings rather than direct-to-owner outreach, LoopNet is where those listings live. CRE Finder doesn't help you find what's on the market — by design.
LoopNet's Premium listing placement is built for the sell side. We're built for the buy side. If you're listing assets, list on LoopNet — that's where the buyer searches.
LoopNet's listing history is a real comps source — what brokers asked, how long it took, what it traded for. We don't reconstruct that. Our data is ownership and parcels, not asking prices and broker negotiation.
Source the 95% LoopNet doesn't cover.
