Another issue I see that might be a problem, in Yellow Letter campaigns I assume you are trying to find properties to "wholesale".

Licensed means having a real estate sales license, But acting as a principal instead of as an agent.If you buy as a principal buyer you are not “acting agent for.”If you buy for cash or sub 2 or on a wrap, a license is not mandatory but it’s hard to get agents to work with you. 90 per cent of properties are sold via agents.Selling on rent to own it’s helpful to have a license, especially if your state requires a license to show properties that you do not own for rent.Getting a license help get respect from everyone, especially lawyers.Get the license but work with your lawyer and act as a principal________________________________________________ #1 Biggest mistake in real estate investing: ready, fire, aim #2 biggest mistake: not understanding how to talk to sellers.Here’s what I mean by ready, fire, aim.You study all this marketing for motivated seller stuff, how to find motivated sellers, spending money on yellow letters, postcards, scouring the MLS, talking to agents, etc.Then you get a phone call, and you choke.You don’t know what to say,you don’t know your marketplace,you’re just trying to get a quick deal done.So that’s the 2nd biggest mistake, not understanding how to talk to sellers.Let’s talk about real estate agent’s listing appointment training: This is How agents are trained to get the listing, how excellent their marketing is, how great their negotiating skills are, how good their team is,is NOT necessary to talk to sellers about terms deals.

Also a quick shout out to the yellow letter I just got for my property in lehigh valley.

Marketing with white and yellow letters can cost you anywhere from $500/month up to I've heard people spending $5,000 - 10,000 on their marketing campaign per month, not including buying or putting together lists, getting contact info and addresses, etc.

then i went in the yellow pages and called mortgage companies (under the section called "mortgages"). couldn't get anyone to loan me from tehre. then i found hard money lenders that would loan to me. 

The appliances and light switches were all yellowed from the amount of nicotine.

I sent yellow letters out on Pre-foreclosures list last week.  

@Detric MotonI like expired listings.I knock on their door.If they are not home, I put a pre-prepared yellow stick note like this one.If they answer, I ask them if their home is still for sale, If they say it is, I make an appointment to walk-through.I give them a cash offer (if wholesaling) or a sub2 or a lease purchase offer(s) (if in good condition).Good luck!

if you doing the yellow letters, do you send offers with the letter.talking about absentee owner letters

The last time I did a yellow letter mailing I was inundated with ticked off homeowners lol.
