Preforeclosure Letters To NOD Lists
Does anyone have an example of a letter that they use in the Southern California market to NOD lists? I have sent out about 200 letters and gotten 1 response. Someone told me about a check that they use??????Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Postcard with one side saying "FORECLOSURE, WE CAN HELP" in huge letters, worked for me.

thanks....any idea of success ratio???How many calls for how many postcards???
Try this:
Dear <FIRST NAME>,
I’m interested in buying your house at <PROPERTY ADDRESS>. If you are interested, please give me a call at <PHONE NUMBER THAT A HUMAN PICKS UP – NOT ANSWERING SERVICE>.
Sincerely
<YOUR FIRST NAME ONLY>
This one works but send 4K min and 6 times per property if not don’t bother it will not work.

Handwritten, sorry I forgot to put that. DO NOT PRINT OR COPY OR SOME EXOTIC FONT - Blue ink pend and handwrite it. Good luck.

4000 Handwritten notes !
How about making copies of the note card and filling in, by hand, the name and address?
Does anyone else agree that the time invested in HANDWRITING letters is worth it?
IMHO, no. Handwriting the name/address and/or return address, definitely. The key is getting them to read it. If it has a handwritten envelope they will definitely open it.

I have had success with both, printed and handwritten letters. However, I have noticed the ENVELOPE needs to be handwritten and use a live stamp. I have noticed very little response when I was using stick on address labels on the envelopes and metered postage.
I am not sending as much mail as I was in the past. I now rely more on referals and door knocking. It is by far the best. I know door knocking is tuff and sometimes I get insulted or the door slamed in my face but I get better results than with mailings.
GOOD DEAL$ TO ALL
Who are you writing letters to? Who is your target market? A little more info please
Sounds like the SHOTGUN approach. Try the rifle approach.
Focus your efforts. Do you even have any idea what ya want to accomplish other than making money in RE[ Edited by GordonM12 on Date 01/22/2007 ]
What is your target market for your direct mail campaign? What does your letter say? How many letters do you send out? How are your phones answered.
There is a problem if your phone is not ringing. You have to get the phone to ring, then getting motivated sellers will be your next step.
It could be a lot of things. Your posts are not giving enough information for us to make any constructive suggestions.
DougON,
What is a Cooperative Assignment ?
I am sorry that I am not familiar with this term.
How does a Cooperative Assignment work?
Hey Jennifer:
To who do you send this letters?
Servio
panic,
That rebuttal sounds just like a script from a door knocking course.
Sometimes those are your best leads. This will happen no matter what kind of marketing you do. Someone will have a bad day and will want to take it out on someone. That is the time you postcard comes and its time to let the stress out on you. Typically, I just listen. I let them air their frustration. When the emotions start to die down then you can talk to them about their problems. If the call goes well then they will have good feelings about you when the call ends.
I would be calm and oblige them. You get a few each week that are like that if you send out any volume of mail.
I find that being polite and maybe responding with some humor does the trick.

I might be wrong, but i understand the bill as they will tax companies that strictly market for others. Meaning that if you sub out your marketing to an outside company they may be able to charge you a sales tax because the service is now a product. If the bill passes.
