[quote=VArealtor][quote=Anonymous][quote=VArealtor]If there is a rental that you really like, OP, you can always consider placing an offer on the property. Heck, you can place an offer on any property even if its not listed for sale.

I had a client that wanted to get into a desirable neighborhood. I just started speaking with all of the neighbors until I found an owner that would consider selling. A deal was finalized within a few months.

What do you have to lose?[/quote]

We've considered this and even spoke with one person when driving through the other day as he was clearly much older and likely to sell soon. He said he wants to sell next year... Would you generate a letter/flyer to place in mail boxes? What is the best approach that wouldn't seem sketchy or off-putting?[/quote]

Always speak with people face-to-face. Follow-up with a handwritten note if it's a situation like you sited, in which the owner will probably sell in a year. You could generate a letter and put it in mailboxes but it will be much sketchier coming from a prospective neighbor than from a realtor (which is what people expect). [/quote]
