When doing preforeclosure homes, is it better to just go up to each house and knock on the door to talk with the owner OR just mail them a letter regarding my interest in purchasing their home?
Which is a more effective procedure?
Hey,
Not sure if it is an either or situation. Depending on your time frame it is probably best to have a mail introduction before showing up at their door. Your mailing should be distinctive (to get opened) and have good content that creates a good impression. You might call a few days after your mailing. I believe I would call first mailing or not. If they are bad to you on the phone I don’t think I would show up on their door step. Over the time period between the posting and the foreclosure I would do several mailings. You want motivated sellers calling you, not vice versa.
Peace,
