They say on their postcard that they charge 35 cents per post card or 45 cents per letter, which is much cheaper than the bigger companies.

The complaint and the letter from my lawyer stuck strictly to facts of the lease violations but, as could be expected, the tenants' response was filled with personal attacks against me.

Getting a lawyer to send a letter that you are considering it would cost a lot less and often works.Specific performance is a remedy in the law of contract, whereby a court issues an order requiring a party to perform a specific act, such to to complete performance of the contract.

Do you set up a payment over five years then give him a balloon payment for the remaining balance?

Working in West Los Angeles.Im pursuing expired listings by calling owners, using a very soft approach, well as you know they are sick of getting hundreds of calls, or they say that they will sell with a good offer but will not list with an agent.I also send out letters and postcards with no success.

When purchasing with seller financing, the seller often desires a balloon payment after a certain duration.  

(long story, not very interesting read) It's a balloon at sale or maturity of the first loan.Anyway, I plan on recording it in second position.

Are you seeing better results with postcards or letters in an envelope? 

Do you have a copy of their original leases, deposits and esstopal letters. 

I simply wanted to know if that is compliant with CA's RE bureau, for future reference.Last message (txt) was from listing broker/dual agent that that Escrow was opened, and so I dropped off the 10K check to the Escrow company indicated in CAR form's Joint Escrow Instructions, which shares same exact address as Listing Broker, just a different suite letter, ie B in of A, and haven't heard back from dual agent since, but assume once contract is executed, brokers move onto their next deals and become 'scarce'.Anyways I had asked for 4wks close then 3wks close but broker kept 2wks close on the offer as its cash so let's see if we actually do close on their preferred timeframe of 2wks which would be 2nd week of Nov; there are NO contingencies other than Title clearing so I see no reason why the heck not, yet remains to be seen!
