Buying Houses From Probate

Late last week, I got a probate mailing list. For my county, there were just over 100 people on it in the last quarter. So, it is a relatively small list compared to the thousands of postcards I might send out to Absentee Owners or other home owners in my market to purchase properties.

Earlier this week, I put together a personalized letter and get a mailing out to this list to offer to purchase any houses they may be interested in selling. With most mailing lists I would send a postcard (or hand written yellow letter in some cases), but with this particular list I am trying something a bit different based on the recommendation of the company that I got the list from.

They recommend a personalized, typed letter with a hand address envelope so that is what I will use as the baseline to compare future tests.

The feedback I have gotten in the past is that the probate mailing list is typically an extremely responsive list. We will see how this particular mailing goes.

Until my next post,

James
