Comparison
FastLien vs TaxSalesFeed
FastLien’s site read November 1, 2026
We run TaxSalesFeed, so we are not neutral. What this page says about FastLien comes from its own website, quoted under Sources. We are not affiliated with FastLien. Prices and plans change, so check before you buy.
At the same $49 a month as our Pro plan, FastLien bundles lists with portfolio tools and a course, while TaxSalesFeed concentrates on the sale record: its source, alerts, CSV and API. FastLien says it covers every state, with coverage varying by county.

- Tools after the list. A portfolio manager with reminders, forecasting in some places, and five skip traces a month.[8]
- A gentler trial. No card to start, and a yearly price saving about two months.
- A course, which we do not offer.
Where TaxSalesFeed is stronger
- An API. Pro includes a documented JSON API. FastLien's public pages name exports only.
- Each record's source. Every sale links the notice or county page it came from.
- Higher tiers. Business adds room for statewide lists at $99 a month.
- A week at a time. Weekly, at $15 a week, opens every record we hold for a short look, with alerts and no CSV or API.
- What is free. The soonest five sales on every list are open without an account.
Which to choose
Choose FastLien for lists plus portfolio tools and a course, or if we do not read your state. Choose TaxSalesFeed if we read your counties and you want a source link on every sale and an API.
