The key is the envelope, the return label on the back, the stamp, and the REAL addressed envelope...

Just also be prepared for the why question...If you use a bulk live stamp over a first class stamp then you need to add the word or occupant next to the name..Happy house huntingMichael

My title company even put a big ole stamp on it that says "Buyer my resell for immediate profit" and it was still approved.

http://www.michaelquarles.com/Long_mary_Letter_with_lines.pub The stamp is a Bulk Mail Pre-Canceled wet stamp which cost .213 to mail in my area or outside of area. the cost of the bulk mail permit is 180 one time and then 180 each year.. so after a few letters it pays to use.

I'll print my letter on that using my handwritten font.After that I will fold, stuff, and insert a business card magnet.Finally, I'll take it to a presort mailing service in town who will print the postage at about .18 a stamp!

Keep it up, you only need one to pay for all the letters.I've heard adding a 1 or 2cent stamp on the envelope increases response but I have yet to try it.My current copy - Dear «First_Name», Time is running out… and time is your worst enemy right now.

Use stamps. 19.

Here we go again.We need to stop classifying broker/agents as REALTORS.Not every broker/agent is a REALTOR.That doesn't mean they are less competent just that they got tired of paying bloated fees to the old NAR.The real estate commissions for each state give a rat's #ss about the NAR.All they care about is license laws and protecting the interests of the public.REALTOR designation is subscribing to their CODE OF ETHICS.Doesn't mean you have no ethics if you are a broker or agent an not a REALTOR.Theoretically you could also argue banks could lose their shirts not having qualified brokers on the ground level handling their assets.What banks pay is cheap in commissions compared to the infrastructure that would be needed to do everything in house.Whether that buyer buys direct with the listing broker or uses a buyers broker the cost is the same BECAUSE the bank allocates for the total commission payout at the time the asset manager assigns the listing to the broker/agent.It will just be xx percent on the HUD to 1 brokerage or split between the buyers broker and the sellers broker.I am talking about the REO side in general and not short sales,etc.
