BP Fam,

I'm a buy and hold investor with 6 units and I really want to accelerate my cash coming in by getting more cash for down payments.  I work a full time job, so I don't have much time to really jump into wholesaling and pulling lists and cold calling. I've got a bite on a potential deal to wholesale or flip because I stopped and talked to the owner who was outside.

I'm always looking at houses as I drive around.  I want to stop and drop off a  "Direct mailer" when I see these  houses in bad shape and then skip trace and call them. 


Has anyone done this before and does it help to knock on the door and talk to someone if they are home?

Thanks!
