Absentee Owner

Hey everyone. I'm currently putting together my first direct mail marketing campaign and want to include high equity absentee owners in my target group. Does anyone have a list of criteria they would recommend to narrow down?

Hello @Jacob Lewis! Welcome to the BP Community!

You're going to get a lot of different answers to this question, but I'm going to throw my $.02 in anyways. I like using Listsource.com and this is the criteria I recommend:

  • 1-3 Bedrooms
  • 30%-100% Equity
  • 4 yrs. Ownership
  • SFR
  • Median Price Range for your area
  • Absentee
  • Owner Occupied
  • No Corp
  • No Trust

Hope that is helpful!
