I just saw another postcard from the BoA today addressed to her and asking her to confirm occupancy..

I was just going to use a hand written postcard saying the usual "I will buy your house as is etc"   just going to act like I don't know they are going through a divorce..

I wouldn't stop mailing letters or postcards to those same people.

It covers costs to mail out postcards or letters, it covers their costs to acquire a list, and their time dedicated to taking calls, negotiating the deal and building their buyer’s list.

Should I use postcards ,letters ?

Sent them all a postcard and professional letter, separated by a week.I've gotten 4 responses in the past 3 weeks, over a 10% response rate, all are at least mildly motivated or distressed.

I get responses from signs, postcards and Internet ads.

Imagine if you just STICK TO IT, always marketing, always talking to people, being genuinely interested... deals like this will happen more and more.I remember getting a call from a woman that put one of our postcards on her frig and finally called us about 8 months later.

Our mailers will cycle through the following mail types: professional letters x 2, handwritten letters x 2 (not yellow letters; cream colored letters, not lined, with a logo / letterhead), postcards x 2, professional flyers x 2, zipletter x 1.

I'd like to setup postcard campaigns for expired listings in my area.
