Just bought a home? Here’s why your mailbox exploded.

Your home purchase is public record.

Insurers, warranty sellers and contractors use those records to find you.

Your change of address travels.

Companies that already had your name follow you to your new home.

Your new mortgage got noticed.

Lenders and card companies see you as a great customer.

We lived it.

When my wife and I moved from Las Vegas into our new home in North Little Rock, Arkansas, we did everything right. Then the mail started: credit offers from dozens of companies we’d never heard of, our old creditors forwarded right along with us, home warranties, insurance, and every home product you can imagine. Every single day. It was exhausting. So we figured out how to make it stop, and put everything we learned into this kit so you don’t have to.

What it stops — and what it never touches

This kit stops

  • credit and loan offers
  • sales mailers
  • catalogs
  • junk email
  • previous residents' mail
  • mail for loved ones who have passed

It never touches

  • bills
  • statements
  • tax forms
  • account notices
  • mail from people you know

The golden rule

“Never call the number on a letter you weren’t expecting.”

Some of the most official-looking mail new homeowners get is a sales pitch, and a few are scams: $150 ‘deed copies,’ fake loan notices, mortgage insurance dressed up like it’s from your lender. The kit shows you how to spot every one.
