Driving for dollars- what is the best way to systematize

While I am driving for my job I see about 5 to 10 houses per week that are vacant, I would like to start mailing to home owners of these houses.  My question is what is the best way people have found to systematize mailings. I have no or very little time, but have some money,  Is there a service, pay someone locally? Writing one letter a days sounds like a waist of time and paying someone a dollar or so a per letter would be pretty low volume and difficult to find someone to write these letters.  Last part of the question, If I run into 5 or so vacant houses per week, is there another group ( mailing list) that could be added to the letters?

There are always other lists you can pull. Absentee, out of state, high equity, small homes on large lots, etc. 

If you only want to mail 5-10 per week you're going to be better off doing them yourself. You could set up an excel spreadsheet. Mail merge. Print on a letterhead apply a wet signature and drop it in the mail.
