It argues banker-sourced deals are already widely shown, bandwidth and limited coverage (about 18%) constrain outreach, and relying on networks or generic databases leads to higher costs and missed timing. Owen Windsor of Corbits describes a four-part approach: mapping the market from primary sources, tracking real readiness signals, conducting personal owner outreach, and manually pre-qualifying and booking meetings with a full brief. Corbits reports results such as 800 owners reached with a 13% reply rate and 1,119 meetings booked in 78 days, plus a LinkedIn campaign generating 27 positive intros in 64 days, and offers a 90-day 5,000 per month pilot expanding after proof.
