How to keep yellow letter marketers from calling all the time???

Hi Everyone,

I've got a couple of rentals, but one in particular is on the radar of marketers.

I've owned it for 15 years but just last last 2-3 years I've noticed a significant uptick in marketers emailing/ texting/ calling/ and sending letters.

The letters are fine as they are self limiting due to cost.

Emails are easily moved to SPAM.

Calls and texts are making me crazy, I get at least 1 call/ text every day.

I respond to texts to take me off their call list, and when I answer phone calls I do the same. (I never answer my phone for numbers I don't recognize anymore).

But now I'm seeing the same numbers come up again and again in texts, even when I previously asked them to stop.

I know my phone number is on the county PVA, and they won't remove it. The county also charges access to these records. So, I'm surprised that hundreds of people have paid and are calling me constantly.

Are there other companies selling lists that I can contact to get them to stop distributing my information?

Thanks,

Derek

When I get these calls I always tell them "The property is not for sale, BUT if you do find anybody in this area willing to sell, please call me. I am a cash buyer."
