Hi, my name is Jacob My question is:As a beginner to Direct mail, what would you recommend for me when first starting out, What pitfalls should I avoid that most beginners endure, and how should I design my message to the prospect to get the most consistent responses?

Be a DON'T WANT-ER - always be willing and ready to walk if you can't get a good deal - And understand that you can always come back to that seller later and begin Second Stage NegotiationsAsk the 7 wordsAlways consider a subject to offerAlways ask for seller financingUse the Study Period Clause with right of possession to control properties without cashOffer seller participation - this is a great way to close dealsOffer something other cash - a note secured by your other equities, an unsecured note, a Principal only mortgage (using this technique you can offer more for the building since you are not paying interest - and as you know a direct reduction mortgage will pay off much faster.

Tenants want to rent out a small shed on our duplex property, but I want a simple agreement in place.

I’m looking for small multi, sfh, and a flip or two to raise capital.

They will turn a profit year 1 and with a few small cap ex itrems and both leases being up they will roll into 2025 with a nice monthly net.

Some info on our home its located in Pennsylvania, 5 bd 1.5 bath with a shed outside for storage. 2 car parking and a small yard.
