I appreciated those parties that gave me some numbers to work with, and I also appreciated the general council that direct marketing this property to cash buyer investors via direct mail, is unlikely to produce good results.I have a local real estate agent who has been VERY interested in marketing the property, who is allegedly a top seller in his organization with Keller Williams Realty.

I have lived in Nashville, TN since 2004 making music as a record producer, engineer, and mixer.

Think how much more profit you could produce if you could find those off market leads for rental properties you wanted to hold.Do a bunch of reading here on BP about marketing and wholesaling, especially marketing for leads.My favorite book for rentals is Milt Tanzer's Real Estate Investments and How to Make Them, on Amazon.  

If you do make each letter customized with names/addresses is there any good tools/sites out there to mass produce these? 

I have seen some dumps that actually chip branches, and local residents can get the mulch produced for free or cheap. 

Top producing methods include:1) AdWords (PPC)2) Direct Mail3) TV commercials4) Billboards and car/truck wrapsIf you don't have $ for marketing, it's tough to find sellers off-market.  

You can refinance the rental property without a job as long as it is producing a decent amount of rent.  

Next you cashflow, so the income the property produces (rent) is higher than the all of the bills, so you can build some reserves in case a big expense come along.

My title company is saying that if I cannot produce an heir to fill out the affidavit of heirship, I'll have to consult with an attorney to remove the name from title.

It is not really producing great returns only about 10% (leveraged) if you are lucky.
