Hi there Louisville area folks.  

We have a great REI group here. PM me for information. You can also check out my blog - LouisvilleGalsRealEstateBlog.com. I have a lot of articles here on BP and on my site.

You just make your offer to the executor and their attorney will take care of the approval. You need to get someone to look at the water problem.  Write in your contract that it is subject to inspection and then get someone to look at the basement.

They both matter, but if you don't mail consistently no mail piece will do the job.  

-Consistency is #1.

Jody -

Like Rick said; you have to address the problem and offer a solution that works fro them.  I send different letters.

Excellent thread.  I do love direct mail.

Thanks for listening Ronnie. We would love a review when you get a minute.

@Ronnie Boyd - Way to go!!!!  

Success stories like yours are why everyone here does what they do. I'm glad I played a small part in that, and I am honored to be specifically mentioned.

Lafi - 

In my area I mail once a month. You need to scrub you list after a few months to see if any are sold.  Because I add the new probates month after month I end up with a lot of names. For that reason, I only mail the decision maker; I don't mail the heirs.  

I only use white letters for probates; never postcards or yellow letters for this group.

Folks need to get over the idea that they are at a disadvantage if they are a business or if they portray themselves as a business. Like @Dev Horn and I were discussing earlier; it's a real person that shows up at the door - not a business. And it is that person's job to earn the sellers trust. 

People actually feel confident about the deal when they are doing business with someone that they know has a real business.   

I also only use professional, computer generated white letters. (It's fine to use copy paper). I  want to look like I am professional; trustworthy, reliable and one that can close the deal.

Hey Adam -  I do have a website that I like if you want to sent me a private message. 

I hope you like CA.  How long have you been investing there?
