Direct Mail was mostly returned to sender

I got properties from PropStream and through other clever ways and most if not all of the letters I sent out was returned to me. "Not deliverable as addressed, unable to forward." Is this common? I know they were addressed correctly I'm assuming the people had moved from the property but I would have thought the mail would find it's way to the people who still owned the property in most cases.

@Kevin Keck this is absolutely common.  The better the list, the lower your return mail ratio is.  Most investors will hone their mailing list sources to get the best return but you will always have return mail if you are sourcing deals in this fashion.
