“Dear Attorney” Divorce Prospecting Letters
Helping people sell their homes when they’re going through a divorce is not for everyone, but if it’s for you, you’re probably seeking ways to get more of those listings. Divorce prospecting letters to attorneys will introduce you to the people who can send listing clients your way.
In fact, agents say their best source of divorce listings is referrals from divorce attorneys – once they can get a foot in the door.
That’s why this set of letters came into being. They’re designed to help you get your foot in and push the door open wide enough to walk through.
The “Dear Attorney” Divorce Prospecting Letters are written to show attorneys that you know what you’re doing. They demonstrate that you understand the difference between selling a home for a happy couple and selling a house for a divorcing couple.
In addition, they show that you can endure the emotional aspects and are tough enough to do what needs to be done when one of the sellers is uncooperative.
Six attorney divorce prospecting letters offer your assistance.
Letter #1 is an introduction in which you acknowledge the difficulties and offer to prepare a CMA if the attorney happens to need a second opinion on a current file.
The other 5 letters cover different aspects of selling a home in divorce and promise that you won’t disappoint. Two of these letters are short enough to be used on an oversized postcard – and I recommend that you do. Sometimes a postcard will get attention when a letter will not.
Get on the telephone!
I also recommend that after sending 3 or 4 letters, you pick up the phone and 
attempt to speak with the attorney – or at least his or her assistant. Reference the letters and ask if they have questions about your service, your experience, your marketing, etc.
If you’ve worked with other divorce attorneys and have a testimonial or two, include those with your first letter. Include testimonials from satisfied clients with one or two of the others.
If you have impressive statistics with regard to days on the market or list to sell prices, include them with your testimonials.
How much? Only $49 for 6 letters that could open the door to ongoing referrals from attorneys across your marketing area.
