Real estate direct mail for investors and professionals.Start with the campaign role.

Real estate direct mail uses postcards, self-mailers, or letters to reach selected property audiences or local markets. Sendvo separates investor acquisition from professional outreach, then connects the chosen audience, creative, workflow, and budget. The campaign owner controls audience rights, content, offers, and approval.

Sendvo supports campaign operations. It does not make property, housing, eligibility, or offer decisions.

Sendvo original research

What appeared in 39,718 real estate mail pieces?

In a Sendvo analysis of 39,718 eligible real estate mail pieces, 39,716 received automated labels. Folded self-mailer or short-brochure proxies represented 45.3%, while two envelope-and-letter proxies together represented 52.1%. URLs appeared on 80.3% and phone paths on 63.6%. These are frequency patterns, not performance results.

Envelope and letter proxies

20,688 pieces · 52.1%

Use a letter when the campaign needs more explanation, qualification, or disclosure. The observed share does not prove that letters perform better.

Self-mailer or short-brochure proxy

17,993 pieces · 45.3%

Use a self-mailer only when its reading job, content, and postal path fit the campaign. It was the largest single format label, not a majority.

Response paths can overlap

URL 80.3% · Phone 63.6%

Choose one primary action and decide whether the other path supports it. A piece could contain both labels.
