Building Real Estate Investor Lists
When compiling investor data from county property records (CSV), LLC filing databases (HTML), REIA membership directories, CoStar or LoopNet exports, LinkedIn research, crowdfunding platform participant lists (PDF), MLS buyer data and networking event attendee lists, upload the files to Email Extractor to extract and deduplicate email addresses. Real estate investors appear across multiple property records, LLC filings, professional associations and deal platforms, so deduplication prevents sending the same deal alert to an investor multiple times.
