I plan on doing some direct mail around my area. As a person that owns zero real estate but looking to purchase off market deals I don’t know exactly how to word my letter/ card. A lot of direct mail letters formats are like.. “hey I own real estate and would like to buy your house for cash” and so forth. I just don’t want to turn a potential seller off by admitting I own no real estate. Does it matter?

@Jerad Grace No, it doesn't matter. Just say something like "my name is Jared and I am interested in buying your house at XXX XXXX. I can pay cash and close quickly! Give me a call at 555-555-5555." You don't need to say anything about how much real estate you own or how much experience you have. Good luck! 

Hello,

I hope you are in a personal crisis and ignorant of the current real estate market pricing. I will buy your house at 60% of market value and quickly resell making a 30% profit at your expense. I hope you will contact me and not consult anyone else with knowledge of your options.

Sincerely

@Braden C. Appreciate the feedback!

@Terrell Garren   Wow, thanks for the sarcasm.

I can send you my template if you want. I didn't start with land or an established social media account, website, etc.

@Justin Reed Can you share your template with me?

@M.L. Green Sure - just message me and I can reply with it there.

@Jerad Grace I would recommend taking a look at Offers2Owners. They do offer a variety of templates you are able to choose from
