There are several sites online who claim to pay fees to "locators", who find deals that close.  Sounds like your basic bird dog situation.  

Given all the previous posts, it begs the question:

Are these sites (and their so-called Locators) operating illegally?  

You didn't mention "who" you're mailing to. Who are you targeting for your mailing efforts (absentee owners, FSBO's, vacant property owners, landlords, etc.)? You should be tracking this and adjusting your mailing accordingly.

Just mailing to people who have a house for sale probably won't net you any truly motivated sellers.  You're looking for people who need to sale vs want to sell.  That should be the focus.

Well done production.  If I wasn't already a member, this video would make me sign up!

A pet peeve of mine are sites with misspelled and poorly punctuated words.  It sends up a red flag for me that screams "unprofessional".  How big  a deal is spell check these days?

Melvin,

I've never heard of it, but their site looks interesting.  I'll check them out and let you know what I find.

Andrew,

What are you concerns about your potential buyers seeing the property at this point? They're gonna have to see it at some point.

Are you worried about them doing an end-run around you directly to the seller?

Curt,

I'm sure many of us who are considering becoming licensed to aid in our investment strategy find your comments helpful.  I held a license years ago and I'm seriously thinking about getting licensed again.

Thanks!
