Letter to Absentee Owners: What to Include and Proof-Reading

Patrick Sullivan
  • Leominster, MA
Posted

Hello All,

I am COMPLETELY new in wholesaling but am serious. That said, I have the following questions:

What should I write to absentee owners the first time? What should I write to them the second and subsequent times (should they yet to respond)

Is it better to hand write my letters (BTW - my hand writing is sub-par and I have not the funds to pay a professional writer), or will typing do the trick [for now]?

Is there anything else I should know before advancing onward?

P.S. - I have driven for dollars on properties that seem old, distressed and vacant, though do not show that they are uninhabited in the deeds and are not in my ListSource list ... all of my ListSource properties [thus far] were either inhabited or seemed inhabited, although it may be that I did my run on Saturday



Thank You,

Patrick
