Is this a good wholesaling letter?

I am preparing to do my first absentee owner direct mail campaign and this is the letter i have come up with.

(Subject’s name)
Street
City, state zip

Dear (subject),
I am writing you, because I am interested in purchasing your property located at (property street city state and zip). I live nearby in Milwaukie Oregon and wholesale properties in the Portland metro area. I am currently looking for homes in the neighborhood and this is how I learned of your property.

Please call me at (541) 993-xxxx, so I can tell you how I can get your property sold within a month, with no hassles and more importantly, at a fair price. As wholesaler, I help cash buyers purchase the house directly from you. This eliminates all real estate commissions or extra fees coming out of your price. The payment I receive and all costs associated with the closing come from the buyer. Finally, all offers are made in cash. This is so you never have to worry about delays resulting from a buyer trying to qualify for a mortgage and wasting your valuable time.

I’ll be glad to personally tell you more about how I how we can work together. All calls are completely confidential and there is no obligation whatsoever. Even if you are not interested in selling at this time, call (541) 993-xxxx, so I can help you with determining the value of your property. You should also keep this letter for future reference, since things in life have a tendency to change unexpectedly. Thank you for your time and consideration and I look forward to speaking with you.

Sincerely,

Mason Valenzuela
(541) 993 xxxx

P.S. If you are more comfortable with email, my address is (email address)@gmail.com

The great thing about a long letter is that the phone wont ring much while filtering out non motivated people.

At the very most maybe something along this line..

Dear John,

Hi my name is Michael and I am going to buy a house in your neighborhood and if you’d like to have your property considered, please call me right now!

Because I am a private buyer you will save thousands by not paying any fees or commissions. I’ll give you a fair cash offer, plus pay all of the closing fees. The best part is you don't have to fix up a thing.

Here’s what Bobbie M. from Dallas had to say: “I’m so glad I called Michael, the property I inherited was vacant and a mess. I had no money to fix it up and needed to sell quickly. Michael gave me a fair cash offer on the spot, paid all the costs and closed in two weeks! I saved thousands in fees, didn't have to fix up the property and actually got a better price than my neighbor did selling with a Realtor”.

Just so you know this letter has gone to several of your neighbors and unfortunately I can only buy one property at this time. So if you are interested in a quick sale at top price with no hassles, please call me- XXX-XXX-XXXX

Sincerely,

Michael
P.s Remember I’ll pay you cash at top dollar for your house and you don't have to fix anything! I only have enough cash to buy one property so please call now XXX-XXX-XXXX

The key to marketing is testing what works for you... Personally I want calls from everyone as I market via text as well so phones numbers are great...
