Preforeclosure Marketing Newbie...

[Eric Taylor]

Any suggestions for a newbie marketing to preforeclosures? My plan is to get the Notice of Default from the county clerks office and send those homeowners a letter. To start out should I print and send my own letters?
A big problem is in the state of Texas you have a short amount of time, 21 days to 3 months, from when the notice of default is sent. I have contemplated using a site, homesedo e.g., to gather pre NOD lists. Any advice?

Thank You.

We market directly to the property owner. We handwrite the letter and envelope. We send them out daily. We get info straight from the Clerk of Courts.

We, like Will said, get the letter out the day the notice is filed. Works well for us.

You will find that many of us on BP do marketing to preforeclosures. We all do things a little different. But different things work better in different areas. Be prepared to "test" several ways. Once you find the best, use it.
