Do half and half and track it.I've sent out mostly hand written postcards and have had very minimal response rate.

I think you'll get more bang for your buck there if you can find a list like that.If that's not possible then I'd say to them a letter of some sort, and follow up with postcards (half the cost) every month or so.

Did you use postcards or letter with a QuitClaim Deeds?

Today I was listening to Real Estate Investing Mastery's latest one and heard them talking about a new Cris Chico postcard gaining high results from motivated sellers.

Hi Folks, What do folks do with the many leads one gets from a yellow letter/postcard campaign that have pretty houses and want full price?

Even within direct mail there are different options (postacards, yellow letters, hand written notes, door hangers, brochures...etc)What I would do if I were you is send the same number of mailers in two different forms (say postcards and letters).

postcards?

I sent 800 postcards using an absentee owners list I built on list source.

Account Closed - @Brandon Turner is absolutely right (although he's a little biased about BP:)).Seriously, I think if you polled investors who have spent thousands of dollars on education, most of them (myself included), would start w/ BP for free if we were starting now.If I was going to spend money on anything in your situation, I'd spend it on postcards and mail to private sellers.Hope that helps!

Does anyone ever go driving for dollars and call the owners instead of sending them letters or post cards?
