Cold call, Cold text, direct mail, or email for apartments?

[Ki Lee]

Hey BP! 

For apartments with 50 units+ what's your best way of reaching out to owners? 

Cold calls?  Direct mail?  cold text?  email?

I'm sure that a lot of people don't pick up calls from unfamiliar numbers, and especially if it's out of state.  I've heard some report better results with cold texts.  Wondering what your experiences has been.

I'm sure that its different from calling owners for SFRs, because most a lot of the owners will be serious/professional investors.

Let's share ideas and stories!

 Nothing can take the pace of one on one communication. Professional letters followed up with a phone call and then email ongoing is the best way to start developing relationships with owners of larger properties. Before that make sure you are qualified and know what you're doing. People will know how experienced you are by the questions you ask and the way you handle yourself.
