Is there any guidance available on AI companies specializing in lead acquisition for potential investors interested in a Private Equity Fund that focuses on commercial real estate?

    I don't know much about lead generation when it comes to private equity firms. Based on my basic knowledge of it I would say that partnering with a financial advisor could potentially be a good source of lead gen.

     commercial acquisition is much more about knowing the commercial brokers, pocket listings etc. Unlike residential where they do probate searches, and other types of searches, commercial is much more challenging.

    While I'm not well-versed in AI, our focus has been on residential property investments. However, I believe collaborating with financial advisors could be an effective strategy for networking. Our financial advisor helped us be open to explore new possibilities outside our local market.

    It really depends on size of the raise. This will determine whether you are looking to raise what I would refer to as "friends and family" money or need a PE firm or family office to write a check. You tend to be on your own when it comes to friends and family money, but there are placement firms who serve as gate keepers for the bigger checks.
