Driving For dollars Marketing Letter
I have been driving for dollars and jotting down the vacant homes I find. I haven't been having good luck at all with the letter I use when I send it to the vacant home owner. Does anyone have a quick tip on the content to put in my letter or even how I should send it. For example, Does it help to hand write the letter when I send it out? Or is that a waste of time? Anything will help.

@Tysean Jackson Handwriting is a waste of time if you want to be scalable, but it's a good way to start if you're bootstrapping with very little money.
Sending you a message with templates since that's what you want.
You will get a higher response rate writing by hand, but it's not very scalable and consumes a lot of time. It's a $5-10/hour activity, when negotiating deals is a 4-5 figure/ hour activity. If you spend your time on low value activities, then you will have less chances at the higher value activities.
