The homeowners may come up with what's needed to stop the foreclosure this time, but may want to unload their house anyway in the very near future.I'm now looking for someone in my area who's experienced in dealing with pre-foreclosures who can mentor/partner with us through the first couple of deals.An associate of mine who's been wholesaling for 10+ years has done extremely well in his area with direct mail postcards, so that's something else you can try.

They obviously didn't intentionally target you, they are just humans with no clairvoyant abilities and can't know all the particulars of each home owner when they send those post cards.

Postcard Mania.  

@Lincoln Bartlett You will need to use propertyradar, propwire, or propstream to create lists and reach out to distressed homeowners via postcard or text message.

Has he sent out postcards to the area?

Your postcard should float the idea, if you've listened to Pace Morby's recent podcast, that you will pay more than wholesalers and investors in the area, but to find out why and how, you need a call back and then you have to have your pitch down.

I do color post cards with pictures, and color brochures to help sell listings.
