Check-letter to foreclosure listings

Stefanie Perron

BP-ers,

We are doing a 7-touch mailing campaign to people in pre-foreclosure.  For one of the mailings, I purchased check paper (with a perforated check at the top and white space below) and window envelopes.  The "pay to the order of" will show through the window, so hopefully this will be opened immediately.  The letter portion basically says "you can stop foreclosure by paying off your lender, which is where I can help.  I can purchase your home.... " and then references the check.  My question is... What would you suggest I put as the dollar amount?  And what verbiage would you include with that amount, and why? 

I have it on hold since I was going to put a smaller number than the house is worth, but with foreclosures, it's different... I'm in FL where the whole loan amount becomes due once foreclosure is initiated.  Thoughts??

Thank you!
