Content of a "house hack" letter campaign?

[Chris Gordon]

We've compiled and vetted a list of duplexes (about 75) that meet all our criteria and which we'd consider being occupant-owners of.

Planned next step is to send them letters stating who we are, what we're trying to do, and letting them know we'd be interested if they'd like to sell.

Any experience or suggestions for how to format (handwrite vs typed, etc) and what points to highlight? Current plan is to handwrite the address and type the letter. I'll have my wife "write" the letter as I think that will be better received, and specify that we're looking to move closer to a certain location, the school district, etc, as well as that we'd pay fair market value and can take on repairs, etc.

Opinions?
