📧Cold Email Lead Gen - My Actual Results & Process

Jul '25 (edited) • Acquisitions & Lead Gen

What's up everyone!

Just put together a video breaking down how I've been using cold email to find commercial deals.

I know, I know - cold email sounds spammy, but hear me out because the numbers are pretty solid. last month I got 10+ legit leads from people who want to sell their properties. Total cost was around $200 for the whole month.

The cool thing is this works way better than I expected for commercial stuff - mobile home parks, self storage, RV parks, that kind of thing. I'm targeting older property owners (65+) who might be thinking about retirement and have high equity in their properties.

My basic process: I use PropertyRadar to find the owners, Datazap to get email addresses (only 3 cents each vs 9 cents for skip tracing), clean the list with Email List Verify, then send through Instantly. Takes a bit of setup but then it just runs on autopilot.

In the video I show you my dashboard with real campaign data - open rates, reply rates, the actual emails I send, all of it.

I've been doing this for a few months and honestly wish I started sooner. Way cheaper than direct mail and you can reach way more people.

Anyone else tried cold email for real estate? Would love to hear what's working for you all.
