Is it illegal to text skip traced numbers?

[Victor Barboza]

I am trying to reach motivated sellers, cold calling takes a long time. Is it illegal to text the numbers? What I would be texting would be this: "Hi, my name is Victor. I'm a real estate investor in the area, and saw that a home you owned was in pre foreclosure. I am interested in buying the property and would love to speak to you about what I have to offer. Please contact me at your earliest convenience." . If I can do this it would definitely help me out, but obviously I would not want to get into any legal trouble. Thank you!
