Postcards vs. Letters – or is there really a difference between the two when sending to a Tax Delinquent Owner?
The choice between using postcards or letters to owners of tax delinquent properties depends on several factors. First you have to deal with your budget. How much can you afford to spend on a regular basis over a certain period of time? The owners of delinquent properties have the tendency to ignore these marketing materials until their back is against the wall or their property is in danger of foreclosure. Then, you have to consider the demographics of your target market. You have to consider how many properties are delinquent in their taxes in your market. You also have to find out the average household income of your market.
One of my students in my teleworkshop chose to send out postcards to owners of tax delinquent properties. He was sending about 150 postcards a week. And he was satisfied with the number of people responding to the postcard. The advantage of a postcard is that the recipient does not have to open up an envelop to read it’s contents, so it is a higher likelihood that they will read some of your text, but you have to make sure to write a very effective and persuasive attention getting header for the owner to read the entire message. Using letters are more professional and I actually like this method better. The owners seem to take you more seriously later on if you come across as professional as possible. This makes the sale transaction go much smoother in the end, so this is my preferred contact method.
So whatever marketing tool you are going to choose, make sure that it is not going to waste time or money. Bear in mind that the objective of sending out these marketing tools is to generate enough interest from the owners that they will call you.

O.k. Jack Gives in…
I received a bunch of calls and emails
from you guys asking me to
leave my MOBs program open for just a few more hours.
Some said they would only be close to a computer late at night Some had other reasons to ask for an extension.
To make it short.
I gave in and have extended the deadline for MOBs to Noon (Eastern Time) Tomorrow Thursday, August 6th, 2009.
If I give an extension to some I need to give it to all.
That is only fair.
O.k. Jack Gives in…
But that now is the drop dead time where MOBs will shut down.
No more haggling.
That’s it.
So you have a few more hours to act and thank me later.
Jack
P.S. the MOBs System will literally change the way you do things on the internet.

KISS hello, not Goodbye A Simple Letter will do….
In Tax Delinquent Investment, knowing how to write a letter is pertinent to your success. I have spoken of three different letters I use in my business. The first type of letter I use is the simple letter. This it one of the letters you can send the owner of the property that you are interested in. This letter could look something like this:
“I notice you own this land in Cook County. I’m very interested in purchasing it. I’ll pay cash. Get rid of the burden of property ownership and contact me.”
The advantage of using this type of letter that it has proven to get the highest response rate of all the letters that I have prepared in the my experience. This simple letter does not say a whole lot. It just peaks the person’s interest. After sending this letter, the seller may just immediately call you and you can begin discussions regarding your purchase. Your Tax Delinquent Investment horizon just gets a little bit brighter at this point.
Another advantage that you will experience from a simple type of letter is you get to speak to each seller first. This will get to feel him or her out and see what their motivation is. As a result of this, you can discard a lot of sellers right away. Hence, the seller is motivated. Just take note of the sellers who are motivated and there will be no problem that will arise from there.
If a seller tells you that he/she has moved away and not interested with the property anymore. That’s a much greater advantage. They might have realized that the certain property is a burden already.
Remember that as buyers and investors, we should try to be direct to the point. Beating around the bush will just get you nowhere. If you never learn to Keep It Short and Simple, you can KISS the deal goodbye. Remember to Keep it Short and Simple to Savor the sweet smell of success in your Tax Delinquent Investment business.

Great Fortune that keeps on Coming Checking Tax Lien Properties after your Purchase
After getting through the process of getting the list of properties, sending out letters to sellers, receiving phone calls from sellers, making the offers to sellers, and having your offer accepted, checking out the property is the next step. The reason is that, it is recommended that you take a closer look on your property. This is beneficial for you and your future plans for the property. Another reason is, you can put up a “for sale by owner” sign on the property, when you decide to put it back in the market.
Knowing the exact location and the full details of how to get there, what landmarks to look for will definitely be good when you decide it is time to cash in on your Tax Delinquent Investment. This will help your client, because not all of them are savvy enough to figure out locations.
Therefore, as soon as you have the chance, schedule yourself to go to different parts of the country. Take an actual look at some of the properties that you are buying in the different localities. Because it may be either a brand new area or you might want to get an update of how it looks now. Some areas have quite a bit of development going on. So, see to it that you are going to do this by yourself. Nobody can judge the worth of your investment better than you can. It is your money that’s at stake here.
Checking the properties starts in pinpointing the mapping system. Then Have a GPS coordinate system. Have a portable GPS Tracking device, as well. These are great tools in pinpointing properties to get the exact location of it. When you are in the vicinity of the actual property, take pictures. As what I have said in other articles, bring a pad of paper. Write the property name, location of the property and some markers that you find within the neighborhood. There could be a new strip mall, now, that was not there when you were still doing your research. When you are done writing your notations, take a snapshot of the property with the note visible. So, when you are done checking all the properties you will not get confused. At the end of the day download them in your computer, put them in systematic file folders. Name these folders according to the parcel numbers and keep it updated with dates. If you have time, keep the pictures in a word document and have it saved with the parcel number. So, in the future you will not have a hard time checking on the property anymore.
You are almost at the end of the rope where your investment is about to go LIQUID. Remember not to skip details that can greatly increase your profitability. Tax Delinquent Investing is a lucrative business but if you don’t do it properly and systematically, it all goes to waste. Having processes in place to ensure smooth operations from beginning to end will promise you great fortune that just keeps on coming.
