IG Poll: Stuck?

The data says it all: many buyers aren’t stuck because they’ve lost interest—they’re stuck because they’re not sure what to do next.

Cotality’s latest research found that only 7% described the buying process as straightforward. The rest hit moments of doubt, kept questions to themselves, and moved forward without full clarity. Sometimes they didn’t know who to ask. Sometimes they felt they should already know.

That’s why this poll works. It gives buyers a low‑pressure way to say, “Yep, I’m unsure.” And once they do, you have an open door to guide them—turning uncertainty into momentum, and curiosity into conversations.

How to avoid buyer’s remorse

The housing market runs on speed. But buyers? They run on timing.

That’s the gap we uncovered digging into Cotality’s latest research on “Who (really) owns the homebuyer?” The process is faster than ever: instant alerts, same‑day offers, mounting competition, but most buyers say they still feel overwhelmed. Readiness hasn’t caught up with market velocity.

And here’s the problem: most agents respond by pushing harder. More urgency. More “act now.” That may get an offer written, but it doesn’t build trust.

This campaign flips that script. It positions you as the agent who slows the process down just enough for buyers to feel informed, prepared, and confident. That’s how you stand apart—and how you turn first‑time conversations into long‑term clients.

A deal that’s hard to find in [City]

The Deal of the Week strategy isn’t a nice‑to‑have, it’s a weekly marketing habit worth locking into your SOPs. Simple. Repeatable. Highly effective.

This style of email has helped generate thousands of conversations within our community. Why? Because it’s built to get a response. It sparks curiosity, creates urgency, and makes it easy for people to raise their hand.

But the real win? This email is just the starting point. Repurpose it into an Instagram poll. Turn it into a quick SOI text. Now you’re taking one proven campaign and multiplying its reach, its impressions, and its opportunities.

Not sure which listing to feature?

Start here:

  • Filter for new listings (within the last 7 days)
  • Focus on your target price point
  • Stay in your ideal neighborhood or farm area

That should give you a pool of 50–70 listings.

From there, zero in on the one with the highest saves or views—that’s the listing with heat behind it.

This and…

“This and…” works because it pulls people straight into a dreamstate. Two words are all it takes for them to picture a life they want: morning coffee in the sunroom, golden‑hour dinners on the deck, a run through the park. It’s not about selling a feature; it’s about letting them feel it.

That’s why this viral hook stops the scroll. It’s simple, fast, and ridiculously flexible, perfect for highlighting a listing, showcasing a neighborhood, or sharing a lifestyle moment. Below, you’ll find a list of ready‑made hooks to spark ideas, or use them as inspiration to create your own. Pair one with a short clip or photo, and you’re inviting people into a feeling they’ll want to step into.

Lead Activation Text

Every season gives you a reason to reach out to your clients. The shift into fall is one of the easiest—and most natural—times to do it.

This isn’t about pushing a listing or forcing a market update. It’s about opening a conversation. A quick, personal check‑in that reminds people you’re there, you’re paying attention, and you’re ready to help if real estate is on their mind.

This simple text does exactly that. It’s short, casual, and easy for anyone to respond to. Send it now, and you’ll spark conversations that you might not have otherwise.

Expired Marketing Blueprint

Expired listings present one of the most profitable and overlooked opportunities in real estate. These homeowners are motivated—they’ve already made the decision to sell, invested time and energy, and now feel frustrated and let down by the process. By focusing on expired listings, you can position yourself as the solution they’ve been waiting for.

Here’s why this niche should be a cornerstone of your business:

1. The Numbers Speak for Themselves

Based on available data, nearly 40% of expired listings are relisted within the first 30 days, and many of these homeowners choose to work with a new agent. That’s your window of opportunity. By targeting this group early, with the right messaging and strategy, you can establish trust and secure listings before your competition.

But it doesn’t stop there. Some homeowners take longer to re-engage, which is why a long-term follow-up approach—like our 6-month campaign—can capture those who are ready later.

2. High Intent, Frustrated Sellers

Unlike other lead sources, expired listing homeowners are already committed to the idea of selling. Their frustration isn’t with the idea of moving—it’s with the process that failed them.

These sellers are looking for:

  • A proactive agent who can deliver results.
  • A fresh strategy that avoids the mistakes of their first attempt.
  • Clarity on what went wrong and how to fix it.

When you show empathy, expertise, and persistence, you stand out as the agent who can turn their situation around.

3. A Problem You Can Solve

The primary reasons listings fail to sell are:

  1. Pricing: The home wasn’t priced correctly for the market.
  2. Marketing: The home wasn’t effectively marketed to the right buyers.
  3. Presentation: The home didn’t appeal to buyers visually or emotionally.

With your expertise, these problems are solvable. By targeting expired listings, you’re working with sellers who need your skills—not just someone to list their home again.

Expired listings are a goldmine of opportunity, but success requires more than just sending out a postcard and hoping for the best. It’s about empathy, persistence, and offering clear solutions. With the data we’ve gathered and the systematic approach outlined here, you can turn expired listings into a cornerstone of your real estate business—and build a reputation as the agent who gets results.

Let’s dive into the sequence and strategies that will set you apart in this lucrative niche!

Have you received your 2024 Home Value Report from your agent yet?

This campaign is designed to trigger the consumers fear of missing out. 

By implying they should have received this report, it can elicit an emotion that they are missing out on important information. 

Which then – creates an opportunity for you to connect, engage and build a new relationship with an abandoned seller. 

EOTW: Rent vs. Sell

The best marketing speaks directly to the consumers needs and desires. 

According to a recent Zillow research study, Almost two thirds considered renting out their home before selling. About two thirds of sellers (66%) said they at least thought about renting out their home. A smaller share (28%), however, said they seriously considered renting out their home. 

That’s why, we’ve created the Rent vs. Sell email. It’s designed to start conversations with serious sellers.

TOTW: Cold Activation Text

When all else fails, ask an easy-to-answer hypothetical question. 

This text is designed to resurrect cold leads that you’ve been neglecting or that have been ignoring you.

Year Of Review Social

This is the time of the year to take your victory lap. You’ve worked hard all year and it’s time to celebrate your milestones. This is a great opportunity to show off your results and express your gratitude. 

IG Poll: A deal that’s hard to find in [City]

You already know the power of Deal of the Week. This version is built for Stories.

We start with the hook, then layer in the details, then highlight the features that make this one stand out. Only after the curiosity builds do you invite them to raise their hand. In recent tests, that structure alone delivered 6x more engagement.

The hook itself? We pulled it from one of the 1,200 top‑performing Instagram posts we track at Listing Leads, and built the rest so you can execute fast.

Not sure which listing to feature?

Start here:

  • Filter for new listings (within the last 7 days)
  • Focus on your target price point
  • Stay in your ideal neighborhood or farm area

That should give you a pool of 50–70 listings.

From there, zero in on the one with the highest saves or views—that’s the listing with heat behind it.

Use this format to test urgency, stay visible with buyers, and stay top of mind.

Coming Soon: Skip the Waitlist

Telling someone they can’t have something? Still one of the fastest ways to make them want it.That’s the psychology behind this coming soon email, and why it starts with a line most agents would never dare send:“I really shouldn’t share this listing with you…”No price. No exact location. Just a few vivid details, a sense of exclusivity, and a clear call-to-action:Text “VIP” to your number for more info.It’s short. It’s unexpected. And it works, because instead of broadcasting a new listing, you’re creating  demand before it hits the market.

The secret to getting a lowball offer accepted

You don’t need to shout to stand out. You need to say the thing buyers are already wondering, and answer it better than anyone else.

This campaign does exactly that.

“Can I make a low offer?”

It’s a question your audience might be asking. Now you get to be the one who answers with clarity, strategy, and calm authority.

It’s timely, relevant, and built to meet the market where it is—while positioning you as the professional who knows how to work it.

A stat I didn’t expect in today’s market

According to ATTOM’s latest U.S. Home Sales Report, the average homeowner who sold last quarter walked away with a 50% profit.

While it’s true that margins are down from their peak and some markets are cooling, it’s also true that many sellers, especially those who’ve owned for 8+ years, are still walking away with sizable equity gains.

This campaign helps you bring that nuance to the surface. It gives you a reason to educate, recalibrate, and start meaningful conversations with the people in your database who may be unsure what today’s market means for them.

IG Reel: Homes sold in July under $ in [Area]

This is your plug-and-play July market update. Short. Visual. Crazy effective.

We’ve seen this exact format rack up thousands of views across top-performing creators, and for good reason. It’s fast to build, easy to watch, and delivers exactly what buyers and sellers want: real numbers, real sales, and real context about what homes are actually going for.

This reel template is fully customizable. Drop in your local sold data, adjust the price ceiling, and update the neighborhoods. In under 10 minutes, you’ve got a scroll-stopping post that builds authority without having to say a word.
