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.

FSBO Text Script

Most FSBO sellers screen calls from unknown numbers—especially from agents. If they didn’t pick up, it’s not necessarily a “no.” It just means they don’t know why they should talk to you yet.

This text is short, direct, and creates curiosity. Instead of sounding like another agent trying to “win the listing,” you’re positioning yourself as someone with genuine interest in their home. No sales pitch, just a reason for them to call you back.

The goal? Get them to engage. Once they respond, you can shift the conversation toward value—helping them, not selling them.

Once you get them on the phone, use 1 of these 3 call scripts:
- FSBO Pricing Call Script
- FSBO Photos Call Script
- FSBO Listing Description Call Script

Market Like You Gossip

Forget the hard sell. Instead, market like you gossip. Instead of laying out every detail, tease your audience with just enough insider information to spark curiosity. 

Imagine texts that start with, "I probably shouldn’t be telling you this but…" and then hint at great deals or hidden opportunities. Research shows that curiosity-driven messaging can boost engagement significantly. 

Challenge the norm—let this campaign show you how a playful, coy approach can help you start more conversations.

IG Reel: A Slower Sale is Normal

This Reel is for the sellers who are feeling anxious, and for the agents who want to speak to that emotion with honesty.

The campaign was inspired by a fantastic post from Shannon Gillette, who nailed what so many homeowners are feeling right now: “We’re doing everything right… so why hasn’t it sold?”

We took that message and reshaped it into a simple, text-based Reel you can post as-is with a reassuring message that normalizes slower sales and reminds sellers: it’s not just you, this is the market.

Update the “average days on market” to match your area, choose a reflective or trending audio, and post it.

IG Poll: Let’s find some deals

This Story poll is a simple way to turn views into conversations.

By offering specific options (price, feature, location), you give buyers an easy, non-intrusive way to raise their hand.

It works because it feels like help, not a sales pitch.

Customize the options based on what buyers in your market are actually searching for, then post.

When responses come in, check your DMs and follow up with confidence.

See below for recommended follow-up scripts to keep the convo going.

Referral Script

This referral text is simple but strategic.

It’s based on research from Vanessa Van Edwards, a behavioral expert who studies how warmth, trust, and status drive responses.

Here’s what makes it work:
1. It opens with a high-warmth cue—“You’re so well-connected”—which triggers trust and makes the person feel seen.
2. It keeps the ask mutual, not transactional. You’re not selling—you’re inviting them into something valuable.
3. It uses power + warmth language to describe the listing. Instead of underselling it (“might be a good fit…”), you’re quietly signaling urgency and quality.

Send it now if you’ve got a great listing to a contact who knows everyone.

This is 1 of 4 homes that just had a price drop…

Price drops are happening for a reason.
Some homes were overpriced. Some sellers misread the market.

But for buyers? That shift creates opportunity.

This Instagram Story leans into what’s actually happening—without sugarcoating it. It gives buyers a reason to engage, and gives you a simple way to start real conversations based on real-time changes in the market.

Here’s the post—just plug in the neighborhood:

“This is 1 of 4 homes that just had a price drop…
…in one of the hottest neighborhoods in [City Name].
Should I send you the other 3?? They're all priced below recent comps.”

→ Yes, I’m curious → Show me the deals

What it’s really like to sell your home when…

Selling a home is rarely as simple—or as fast—as people expect.

That’s why we created this carousel: to walk future sellers through what the process actually feels like. The decisions, the doubts, the waiting, the wins.

It’s not meant to capture every scenario. Instead, it offers a realistic, emotionally honest timeline to help set better expectations—especially in a market where things are taking longer and patience matters more than ever.

Just one note: you’ll want to edit Slide 7 to reflect the average days on market in your area.Use it as-is—or tweak the timeline to better fit what you’re seeing with your clients.

When I tell people I live in [Area], they think…

This Reel flips the narrative—and that’s exactly why it works.

Most buyers have a surface-level impression of your area: traffic, sprawl, or sky-high prices. But that’s not the whole story. 

Inspired by Marie Lee’s viral Instagram Reel, this format is a smart way to shift perception in 7 seconds or less.

Here’s why it works:

  • It creates contrast—what people think vs. what’s true.
  • It uses humor and visual storytelling to reframe objections.
  • It builds local pride while educating your audience.

A few example angles you could use:

  • “When I say I live in East Nashville, they think I mean Broadway crowds… but I really mean tree-lined streets and neighbors who bring you sourdough.”

  • “When I say I’m in Miami, they picture traffic on I-95… but I’m really biking to a quiet café two blocks from the bay.”

  • “When I say I live in Jersey City, people think it’s just high-rises and PATH trains… but I really mean farmers markets and parks with skyline views.”

  • “When I say I live in Scottsdale, they think I mean golf courses and gated communities… but I really mean trails, tacos, and sunset hikes after work.”

Use this Reel to reclaim the narrative—and connect with buyers who want what you see every day.

I started to think about selling…

Sometimes the best lead gen is just asking the right question.

This Instagram Poll does more than boost engagement—it gives you real-time insight into what’s actually holding people back from selling.

Here’s what makes it effective:

  • It meets sellers where they are: stuck in limbo.
  • It surfaces objections without making it about you.
  • It creates a low-risk way for followers to raise their hand.

Use it to start DMs, guide your content, and tailor your follow-ups.

Simple. Specific. Seller-focused.
