Driving for dollars question

Hello Everyone,

I am trying to get a good understanding on driving for dollars. I drove around my neighborhood and found some properties that looked like they were in pretty bad shape compared to the other homes in the neighborhood. Out of the 13 properties I wrote down only 3 looked vacant. I did not go up to the doors due to snow but the 3 vacant looking properties had signs on the doors or windows which gave the me the impression that they were vacant. The other 10 properties were in very bad shape but had signs that someone may be living in them. Can I and should I send them a postcard and include the properties on my list? Do you only target homes that have vacant signs?

Thanks
