Legality of Direct Mail - Litigation Risk

[Frederick S.]

Hello everybody,

Would anyone happen to know the legality surrounding direct mail? I am interested in knowing if this falls under anything similar to cold calling, auto dialling, ringless VM, etc.

The next question would be if there is a difference between calling as an individual, or company for the purpose of acquiring the actual property VS offering services to the owner of the property in question.

Last question would be if there are any differences in legality when reaching out to the owner of a property if it is an individual VS a legal entity like a corp?

Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks,

The world would stop if direct mail was outlawed and the post office would go bankrupt. Don't expect direct mail to end anytime soon.
The question is, "is direct mail effective". Ask that question in a new post.

The difference with a Corporation is that usually it is a large company and trying to buy from them is very difficult. However, a lot of small investors use LLCs. So, treat LLCs just like you would a private owner.
