Yeah, same in USA in regards to most people using real estate agents. But lots of people are sending letters right now due to the supply shortage. This is a more convenient way to do it.
a) you can do it entirely from your computer
b) you don't have to drive anywhere or go door-to-door
c) you get feedback on who opened and read your letter
d) you're guaranteed it'll go to the homeowner, not just the tenant (if it's being rented out at the time)
e) you get a professional introduction that signals to the homeowner that you're serious; more so than someone that just prints off 50 copies of a letter on their home printer and drops them like flyers on doorsteps.

A professional introduction by whom? A web only start up that "introduces" two perfect strangers for a fee?
- mytailorisrich 5y agoI think an issue with that thinking is that people don't choose a home from their computer. They want to drive to the area to get a feel for it, they want to see the houses. In addition, unless the homeowners have also previously signed up with your service (in which case why not an estate agent?) then, IMHO that's still a flyer on the doorstep (as opposed to manuscript and personal letter if I leave a card).
