“I don’t enjoy working on prospecting, it’s just not what I would most like to do with my time so I am always searching for a new resource that makes it easier and faster for me. Wise Pelican is my new favorite. The cost is competitive and the templates they offer are on point with the message that I would like to send out.“

What is an Absentee Owner Letter?
An “Absentee Owner Letter” is a type of direct mail marketing used primarily in the real estate industry. It’s a letter sent by real estate investors or agents to owners of properties who do not reside at those properties. The key characteristics of an Absentee Owner Letter include:
- Target Audience: The letter is specifically aimed at absentee owners – individuals who own a property but do not live there. These properties can be rentals, vacation homes, or properties inherited or acquired in some other way.
- Purpose: The primary goal is often to persuade the owner to consider selling the property. Investors see absentee-owned properties as potential opportunities, assuming that the owner might be more inclined to sell, especially if they’re facing management challenges, high taxes, or other issues.
- Content: The letter typically includes a brief introduction of the sender, a statement expressing interest in the property, and a call to action. It may mention the benefits of selling to the sender, such as a quick, hassle-free sale process, cash offers, or the ability to close on the owner’s timeline.
In addition to Absentee Owner Letters, we also offer I Have a Buyer Letters.
Our letters are printed on durable 24# paper, single or double-sided. Placed in a #10 envelope for a personal
touch, complete with handwritten-style addresses. A live standard class stamp is affixed for mailing.
