List criteria

[Mike Ryan]

Hi. Ive signed up with agentpro247. Now Im ready to get a list and do my first mailing. I was thinking about absentee owners with 40% equity in my city or owners with 70% equity and listed as tax distressed in my county. Which choice do you think might get a better response?

Thanks, Mike

Individual "motivated" sellers will always be a good bet. You can always pay bird dogs to find you properties. If you have addresses of vacant properties or absentee owners, you can send them a mailer to the address of the property you are interested in and put " address service requested." That way, the post office will get it to the owner regardless. Saves you the time, effort, and money of having to do a skip trace.
