Absentee Owners

What is Absentee Owners?

Absentee owners can face tenant headaches, property fatigue, and the realities of long-distance management. Many hold single- family rentals with significant equity but see shrinking returns. Reaching these owners with clear, respectful solutions creates real opportunities.

The Right Audience

Out-of-state or distant owners who’ve held their property for years, have 30%+ equity, and may be tired of managing from afar. Often open to hassle-free solutions, they’re prime candidates for direct outreach that speaks to their challenges.
Owner Occ?: No Purchase Date: to: 2020 Type: Single Family, Condominium Est Equity %: 30+

The Right Message

Speak to the real pain points—tenant turnover, late-night repairs, evictions, or low ROI on current value. Position yourself as the simple exit: a cash buyer ready to help them tap into their equity without the hassle. Empathy and clarity beat pressure every time.
