The corporations and individuals listed here engage in direct mail, aka junk mail, to market their services. Victims' contact info is, as far as I can tell, lifted from mortgage and real estate documents.
To be clear: I have no existing business relationship with any of these companies, and yet they send me flyers, advertisements, enticements, and assorted other unsolicited commercial crap.
Anyone considering doing business with the firms listed below should question how they will treat your private financial information. These companies have already proved that they value marketing over privacy, by sending me unsolicited junk mail (which in some cases contains details of my mortgage?!) This may be legal but it is certainly not welcome, and in my opinion is a terrible way for a company whose business is based on trust to operate.
I know a reputable real estate agent, and a reputable mortgage broker. Neither has ever sent me junk mail. They don't have to resort to paper spam to find customers. I'm sure this is not a coincidence; they provide good service, treat customers with respect, and are rewarded by great reputations and repeat business. Contact me if you'd like to reach either of them.
Or contact the people below if you are not concerned about the marketing practices of the people to whom you're going to send the intimate details of your finances.
