Blind Offers vs Neutral Letters

Blind Offers

(The direct approach) See land. Like land. Make immediate offer on land. But it’s not as simple as it sounds.

This method is the epitome of directness and simplicity. True to its name, this type of mailer involves immediately making an offer on your selected piece of land, without any preliminary conversations or warming up to the owner.

To make this strategy effective, deep research is crucial to determine the land’s value and make a competitive offer.

Pricing tools like Concierge Data simplify this process, by providing

  1. Pricing
  2. Data
  3. Market Value Comps
  4. Scrubbing
  5. Mailing

With this service we assist many new and experienced investors!

Pros: Highly targeted aggressive approach and researched, saves time for both parties. + Always room for negotiation if seller doesn’t like your offer!

Cons: Offers must be meticulously crafted to avoid losing potential leads. Low offers may deter property owners, and compiling such offers demands extensive research.

Neutral letters

Essentially testing the waters, expressing interest without making a full commitment.

They’re a step above a simple greeting but not as forward as a blind offer. The aim is to initiate a dialogue with potential sellers while retaining control over the offer.

The main advantage is maintaining control over the negotiation while also establishing a genuine connection with the owner. Building rapport can lead to more favorable offers and a better understanding of the property.

Neutral letters typically generate a higher response rate compared to blind offers.

However, expect to engage in conversations with owners who may not accept your offer.

This approach can attract unqualified leads expecting market-level prices, which may prolong the sales cycle.

Pros: Retain offer control, establish seller relationship,

Cons: Extended negotiation process, potential for unqualified leads.

What we've noticed in the past 60 Days?

We’ve observed a significant trend among our Offers2Owners members: a whopping 89% have been consistently utilizing blind offers, whether they are targeting land, single-family residences (SFRs), mobile homes, or commercial properties.

Conversely, the remaining 11% of our members have opted for neutral or marketing-style letters, indicating a preference for initiating conversations with potential sellers before presenting an offer.

This shift towards blind offers aligns with broader market trends at the beginning of 2024.

More investors are recognizing the efficiency and effectiveness of this direct approach.

By bypassing initial conversations and making immediate offers, investors can streamline their acquisition process and seize opportunities swiftly.

– Arthur T.

I have used O2O and other mail companies. Honestly I used another one for awhile that was a bit cheaper. But your team, your service, your communication and professionalism was way better so I have exclusively used O2O for the last couple years. I can depend on your service to get things done right consistently and that is what matters to me most.”

– Lisa D.

“We bought 2 adjacent 20-acre forest parcels from an owner who said there was a “teardown” old log cabin on each parcel. We were buying both parcels for $41,000 combined. My broker initially estimated a sale cost of $85,000. I thought he meant for both parcels combined. But once we closed on them he told me it was the sale price for EACH parcel. Then we ended up selling each for $100,000! Best deal of the year!”
