A JobTread alternative for house flippers
By Austin Frangoules, founder of Run The Deal | Checked | 4 min read
JobTread is construction management software for contractors and builders: estimating, job costing, schedules and portals. It does not analyze deals. If you are an investor running your own flips, Run The Deal ties the rehab to the deal itself: ARV, max offer and profit today.

Which to choose
- Choose JobTread if you are the contractor: you estimate, invoice clients and manage subs across many jobs.
- Choose Run The Deal if you are the investor: you need to know what to pay, then keep the rehab on budget and on schedule against the profit.
Run The Deal has a free plan and paid plans at $49, $99 and $199 a month, with founding members locking in launch pricing. It is in an invite-only beta, so you request access first.
Questions
Can I use JobTread to analyze a flip?
Its pricing page does not describe ARV, max offer or BRRRR tools. It is built for contractors running jobs.
Does Run The Deal give my contractor a portal?
Yes. Each contractor gets a private link to their own tasks and invoices. It never shows your budget or profit.
