Finding Motivated Sellers through targeted direct mail.

[Omayra C.]

I am at a lost on what to write on a direct mail letter to find motivated sellers of multifamily properties. I am told so many different things such as writing to let them know of their depreciation ending soon to not paying realtor commissions.  Has anyone had any success with a mail piece that has brought them good prospects? If so, what do you normally say to them? Do you use yellow letters, professional letters or postcards or do you alternate? Which mail piece has worked the best? I normally send to targeted list of 15 years or more and only 5 to 30 units but only had a few good ones and I feel as my mail piece is just not working good enough or I am just not writing the right thing to get them to call.  Anyone with experience doing this for multifamily properties please help.  Thanks.
