I'm looking to do a handwritten mail campaign, and looking to get owner's home address information. Does anyone have a good source for this? I remember hearing that a few traditional search funds were relying heavily on handwritten mail as one of their channels.

A little outside of your question but have mixed feelings about this approach, given I'm a business owner of a commercial cleaning company and am contacted via business channels daily regarding a possible sale. Before I bought the company (at 50, corporate refugee self-funded ETA), I was an ad executive for 25+ years. So appreciate the letter-to-the-home approach might have a better chance of breaking through. But on the other hand, getting business solicitations to my home address feels a bit like a line being crossed. I do feel a truly handwritten note - and envelope - does work. I've received a couple and have opened all while the other "handwritten" DM letters typically have not been opened. Again - take this with a grain of salt - can see how this can be argued both ways.
