[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Look at the responses you've gotten here: 70% would be irritated or offended, 30% would be unoffended but trash the letter. Even if you don't understand why it would bother people, you should recognize it won't help you in your house hunt. Post something in the neighborhood listserves (try to get someone who lives there to post it for you), but recognize that you're only this desperate because what you want in this neighborhood seems unlikely to materialize. You're hoping for a miracle.[/quote] Wrong analysis. How many people are in her position, or have been? My friend wrote a letter to an elderly couple describing her family, why she loved the house, what she would do, etc. She got the house. I live in a "tear-down" according to the builders who write me almost weekly. If I received a letter from an individual who would add on and renovate - and keep the beautiful trees - I would definitely listen to that offer rather than the developers who are changing the character of my much loved neighborhood.[/quote]
