Another advantage of having the legal entity is that it would look professional on a business card.

You have a much better chance of connecting with an owner if you are persistent rather then doing mass mailings hoping to hit that one owner who is ready to sell at the exact moment they received your post card.

I just discovered that there are two FIFA liens on the property, the first from Capital One and the second from Discover Card.  

It's amazing how that works, for that listing, looking into "just listed" postcards to the neighborhood, and when it comes time to "just sold" cards. 

Before long, investors were piling into the grand ballroom and the quiet whispers of the morning became a slow and steady roar, as investors from all over the US introduced themselves to each other, exchanged business cards and shared their stories of where they're from and why they're here.

Take lots of business cards and don't be afraid to talk with people.
