If you put together a mailer, think about how you go through your own mail. For example, I usually toss out anything that looks like an advertisement or sales solicitation without ever reading. This is one reason I recommend against the post card. I think you would do better to mail something that looks like a letter and reads like a letter. Include a return address with your name and address, not a company name. You can prepare a standard letter of inquiry, but try to personalize each one with, at least, the names of the homeowners. Mass mailing of form letters or post cards is easier, but smaller batches of personalized letters can be much more effective.
