Real Estate & Property Services Lead Generation for Commercial Real Estate Companies

SalesHive helps CRE firms create predictable meeting flow by combining accurate targeting, tailored messaging by asset class and market, and experienced SDRs who can turn cold prospects into qualified tours, calls, and LOI conversations.

We Target Your Ideal Commercial Real Estate Buyers
Our SDRs are trained to speak the language of CRE—submarkets, NOI, cap rates, TI allowances, lease expirations, and disposition timelines—so outreach feels relevant and earns replies. We build account lists around your exact asset class, geography, and deal criteria, then run multi-touch sequences to reach decision-makers across the full buying committee.
Decision-Makers We Reach
- Director of Corporate Real Estate
- VP of Real Estate & Facilities
- Head of Site Selection / Location Strategy
- Managing Director, Acquisitions
- Portfolio / Asset Manager
Why Commercial Real Estate Sales Development is Hard
CRE pipeline depends on timing, market-specific relevance, and persistent follow-up—while buyers juggle uncertain demand signals, capital constraints, and multiple internal approvers.
Long cycles, constant follow-up
Leasing and investment decisions move slowly, and momentum can disappear after a tour, an LOI draft, or a financing hiccup. If your team isn't running consistent multi-touch outreach, deals stall and competitors re-enter the conversation.
Stakeholder-heavy buying committees
Most CRE decisions involve multiple voices—finance, operations, workplace/facilities, legal, and often external brokers or consultants. One-thread outreach rarely works; you need coordinated messaging that reaches every influencer without burning the account.
Capital markets whiplash
Rate moves, lender risk tolerance, and refinancing pressure can instantly change what a prospect is willing (or able) to transact on. The Mortgage Bankers Association reported 20% ($957B) of outstanding commercial and multifamily mortgage balances mature in 2025—creating urgency and uncertainty in many portfolios.
Data is fragmented and stale
CRE contact data and property intelligence live across multiple systems—brokerage databases, assessor records, LLC ownership structures, and spreadsheets—so lists get outdated fast. Without clean targeting (owner/operator, tenant, investor, and broker relationships), reps waste time chasing the wrong party.
Hyperlocal targeting is mandatory
Generic "real estate" messaging falls flat because prospects care about submarket fit, zoning and use cases, parking ratios, build-out constraints, and comparable lease terms. To win meetings, outreach has to be segmented by asset class (office/industrial/retail/multifamily) and by specific geography—not just city-state.
Demand signals keep shifting
Many occupiers are still recalibrating footprint strategy, which makes prospecting harder—your best targets can change quarter to quarter. Kastle Systems reported U.S. office occupancy averaging about 54% of pre-pandemic levels in early 2025, reinforcing the ongoing impact of hybrid work on CRE decisions.
How We Generate Leads for Commercial Real Estate
We combine CRE-specific list building, tailored email + phone outreach, and disciplined follow-up to book meetings with the right owners, occupiers, and investors—at scale.
CRE-specific list building
We build lists around your ICP: asset class, target submarkets, property size ranges, ownership type, investment strategy, and trigger events like lease expirations or expansion signals. That means your SDRs spend time talking to real prospects—not sorting messy data.
Learn MorePersonalized outbound email
We create messaging that mirrors how CRE buyers evaluate options—availability, timing, constraints, and economics—then personalize at the account level so it doesn't read like a template. SalesHive's AI-powered personalization helps scale relevance across markets and asset types without sacrificing quality.
Learn MoreBroker-style cold calling
Phone still matters in CRE, especially for uncovering ownership, validating decision-makers, and driving next steps like tours and underwriting calls. Our SDR teams call with a tight discovery framework to qualify intent, timeline, and deal criteria—then set meetings your closers actually want.
Learn MoreTransparent reporting and handoff
You get clear visibility into activity, conversations, objections, and meeting quality so you can see what's working by market and segment. We continuously optimize lists, sequences, and talk tracks based on real response data—not gut feel.
Learn MoreFrequently Asked Questions
Commercial real estate pipeline is highly timing-driven and hyperlocal—prospects care about submarket specifics, lease economics, constraints, and underwriting realities, not generic “value props.” Deals also involve multiple stakeholders (corporate real estate, facilities, finance, legal, brokers), so single-thread outreach often stalls. On top of that, shifting capital markets and occupancy trends can change priorities mid-cycle, making consistent follow-up essential.
For occupier-focused leasing, the most responsive targets are typically Corporate Real Estate, Real Estate & Facilities leaders, and Site Selection/Location Strategy, with finance and operations influencing approvals. For investment and disposition conversations, you’ll usually need Asset/Portfolio Managers, Acquisitions, and Managing Directors, often with broker involvement. We build multi-thread account maps so outreach reaches the full buying committee without over-contacting any one person.
We combine CRE-specific list building with ongoing list hygiene to reduce wasted touches caused by stale ownership records, entity layers, and job changes. Our lists can be structured by asset class, geography/submarket, property size, ownership type, and trigger events like lease expirations, refinancing windows, expansions, or disposition signals. This keeps SDR effort focused on the most likely-to-transact accounts instead of chasing the wrong party.
The highest-performing CRE outbound is multi-touch and multi-channel, pairing tailored emails with broker-style cold calling to validate decision-makers and uncover timing. Messaging should be segmented by asset class and submarket and anchored to deal criteria (use case, availability, TI expectations, lease term, budget range, and timeline). We also recommend multi-threading early so the process doesn’t die when one stakeholder goes quiet after a tour or internal review.
We run CRE-focused SDR programs that combine list building, personalized outbound email, and disciplined cold calling to set qualified meetings (tours, underwriting calls, and LOI/disposition conversations). Our SDRs are trained to speak CRE terminology—NOI, cap rates, TI allowances, lease expirations, and disposition timelines—so outreach feels credible by market and asset class. You get transparent reporting on activity, objections, and meeting outcomes, and we operate on flexible month-to-month contracts while optimizing sequences based on real response data.
