Has anybody used Reonomy for finding land/building owners?
Seems like a lot of companies have tried this type of thing before. Costar for example has been trying this for years. Any information would be great.

But I\u2019ve found calling is the quickest way (in retail).\n\nFor example when I was an intern I was tasked with finding the owners of every building that had this chain in it. There was 83 locations in my state. I called every single one, asked to speak to the store manager and played dumb. Once I got the manager on the phone I\u2019d just ask if they knew the owner of the building. Half knew and willing gave me their phone number and email (which made me laugh sometimes how easily it was to get), when people asked \u201cwhy do you want to know?!\u201d I\u2019d just say \u201cI\u2019m an intern just doing market research\u201d. It was easy. Try that if Costar doesn\u2019t have the info.
