Hi Everyone,

While I was driving around town yesterday I noticed a house that seemed to be in pretty bad shape. I went back home, did my research, and found that the property belonged in a family trust. I was able to get the mailing address of the family and intend to send them a short letter to see if they would be possibly interested to sell. Please help provide any suggestions, thank you.

"Dear Mr & Mrs. ____,

I noticed a property you own on (blank) while I was driving around the neighborhood. The property seemed like it needed some major upgrades and I was hoping that I could take it off your hands. Please call me if you are interested to speak further at xxx-xxxx."
