Direct Mail for Purchasing FHA

Michelle Elsaid

Hi everyone,

I live in Orlando, FL and am currently looking for my first house-hacked, potentially BRRR, multi-family property. I am approved for an FHA loan (Keep that in mind since it often complicates things).

This has so far proven to be extremely difficult in my price range, rent potential, in safe neighborhoods. (I'm also crossing my fingers for a garage)

The thing is - my ideal properties exist - but they aren't currently for sale. So, to be a little proactive, I am considering direct mail to properties I have seen that meet these 'requirements' to see if they are willing to sell.

Anyone have experience doing this and what I should include in letters?

How does FHA complicate this process? Are owners likely to turn away?

I do have a realtor and would want his guidance through the process - what kind of role would he play and how would I involve him since I would be "finding the deal" so to say?

Thank you in advance,

Michelle
