Best Strategy for contacting Trustee

[Adrian Smude]

When I drive for dollars I find a decent amount of properties in trusts.  Most contain a person's name in the name of the trust and I just mail the letter addressed to that person.  What are you doing with these finds?  Has anyone found something more effective to do?

What's the catalyst? Why would they be motivated to sell?

You are dealing with a more sophisticated owner.

Since they've gone to the expense and inconvenience of estate planning, what is it that you have to offer that a quaiified end user or licensed broker/agent would not be the preferred route to liquidation?

If you don't know what to say, you probably ought to wait until you understand the nature of their motivation. Then you'll have something to talk about.
