Sure you could send them letters. But with only 80 buyers, i would sort them by # houses bought or owned, start with the biggest one, and call 8 of them per day for the next 10 days.

This is a PEOPLE and RELATIONSHIP business - 100%. Who impresses you the most - someone who sends you a 50 cent postcard? Or someone that takes the time to call you on the phone?

Plus, imagine all the market and REI intelligence that you could collect in 60-80 conversations with local investors. Don't hesitate to make the personal relationships sooner rather than later because it is the relationships that lead to the revenue/profit in this business....

    Yes direct mail will be your best option altough you may not be able to land a deal with only 80 names.

    Easiest way (especially with volume): letters (or postcards)

    Most effective: door knocking

    @Zaid R.

    When you doorknock are you showing up with an offer in hand?

    @Mike S. usually the offer is written up after talking to them (to gauge motivation) and to check on the condition of the house.
