And when you get my postcard or phone call, you tend to at least think about my instant solution to your difficult problem.

However, it's cost prohibitive for a newbie to mail 2,000 postcards per month.

Can anyone send me a sample of a fullcolor postcard for buying houses.Thank You

This is not to denigrate Alan's course [it was an, interesting, read... ] but it was constructed pre-2008, before the SEC and many state regulators started becoming more viligant at monitoring the increasing number of real estate investors issuing securities [if you are raising capital from investors to invest in real estate....]Whichever course you elect to use, or not, or self-educate, seeking out an active attorney current on your state's and federal SEC law is ESSENTIAL, before you mail out any post cards inviting folks to luncheons or otherwise ADVERTISE for investors [as Alan's course advocated when I perused it].The red flag to state regulators is when ads appear, if the advertiser has not complied with the proper state registrations prior to soliciting investors through advertising, you've just created a HUGE target for yourself in most states.....On the other hand, a good attorney practicing in your state's PPM or private offering realm can protect you, and review your offering to investors....and save you some stiff penalties[you've probably heard of the one old school very successful investor, sort of the grand daddy in the private investors area, was actually shut down, for a comparatively MINOR failure to maintain proper paperwork, i.e. whether funds would be returned to investors after each project, or rolled over to the next project..., simple paperwork, had it been drafted correctly, and then proper records maintained]Best of luckBob

Here's a tip, don't just think postcards!

My girlfriend and I are starting our first postcard mail campaign and we wanted to find out some information.

Now, his list is very qualified so don't think he gets that from sending post cards to absentee owners.

If you put in enough crappy offers some will get accepted.Note this is NO different than sending out 1000 postcards, getting 20 calls, that end up being 7 warm leads that turn into 1 deal.The marketers will say that you will want to keep mailing that list and you will get better responses on the follow ups especially once you hit them 5, 6, 7+ times.

I have been doing postcards to absentee landlords and probates.

Do you send them a yellow letter, printed white letter, or a post card.
