@David StoneWelcome to BP.
Try a local lender. Maybe a credit union. You might be able to get one.
Good luck.

Welcome to BP.
Postcard is the cheapest way to direct mail marketing. It will cost 50 cents for a full color postcard. Depending on your farm area, you will need to do it on a minimum of 1000 to get some kind of a response.
There are many list providers out there including, but limited to:
listsource
millessadata
vistaprints
corelogic
srds
etc.
Hope it helps.

Welcome to BP.
Absentee owners is good one to start with. Good list means targeted marketing instead of mass mailing.
We have a targeted list that we mail over and over again.
Hope it helps.

Welcome to BP.
Great job of finally pulling the trigger.
ROI will depend on many factors. Since we don't have numbers, it will be hard to compare. Check out the neighborhood by going on to cpd website.
Hope it helps.

Thank you for sharing your experience.

Welcome to BP.
1. Hire an appraiser.
2. Get local broker for a BPO / CMA.
3. Get a local investor assist you with it.
Hope it helps.
