Driving for dollars

After finding properties that look distressed does people write offers before seeing the inside of the property? And if so how do you calculate the value. 

Or do you wait until a postcard/phone call is returned and you set up a time to see the interior of the home? Thanks

Make contact first to see if they'll even consider selling. Then you can visit the property, meet the owner, and negotiate an offer.

It doesn't make sense to write an offer when they may not even be interested in selling and you have no idea what it's worth to you.

Yeah that’s what I was assuming. Thanks Nathan
