Driving for dollars, Long Island edition

Greetings, I spent a few hours this morning driving for dollars taking the less direct approach and leaving notes of interest in mail boxes. I plan to follow up intermittently (monthly?) with the homes I have already identified. I've never done this before, but my father-in-law swares by this method, though he operated out of the bay area. I'm on Long Island and was curious to know if this has worked for anyone in identifying lucrative deals. If not, what has worked for you? Thanks.

Frank Artusa Great job leaving notes at the property. Do you plan on mailing to them monthly?

Driving for dollars definitely works but with everything, it's a numbers game. The more sellers you talk to, the more deals you'll do.
