I have now created a small letter that I attach to the lease and will have my tenant sign along with the lease so that upon they giving notice i can remind them of the "instruction letter".  

You could have your physical address as there and mailing address where you actually live and no one will likely care.

Account Closed a wholesaler really needs to be able to find properties on their own, usually through some kind of marketing (direct mail, bandit signs, driving for dollars, etc - search all of these topics on BP to find a wealth of information).

I have sent out thousands of postcards and letters and so far haven't event come close to closing a deal with direct mail.

Have them mailed to you at her address!

Let's say I do a direct mail campaign with the following parameters: Absentee ownerOwned for a minimum of 15 years 40-100 percent of equity minimum equity of 30k single family 3-5 bedroomsno trust, LLC or corp ownedLet's say, for ease of discussion, the property is really worth $100,000 retail.

If you hire someone to do your landscape - mowing the lawn, prune trees etc... on a monthly basis, you might want to drop by once every 2-3 months to make sure the lawn maintenance work is satisfactory.I suggest you personally go change the air conditioning filter every 30-45 days.These two combined should give you a good excuse to stop in to inspect your property without them feeling like you are watching them.Add to that the occasional need to go pick up mail (in case not everything is forwarded or changed), as well as actual repair work...you have plenty of opportunity to go inside without any specifically scheduled "inspections".I tell all my tenants up front I will come by every month to change AC filters, bleach the condensate line, throw some ice and lemon peels into the disposer.

Does anyone have any "statistics" (doesn't have to be audited) on the call rate and quality generated from 1st, 2nd, 3rd, etc. mailings to the same list?

Hey Guys, I am new to Real estate investing and trying to come up with some useful marketing strategies to support my direct mail campaign.
