Absentee Owners / Second Home Seller Letter

Fourteen percent of all home sales this year came from one group: owners who don’t live in the property they’re selling. (Source: NAR)

Second homes. Absentee owners. Landlords dealing with repairs, vacancies, and shifting returns.

They may not be raising their hands, but many are re‑evaluating what they own and why.

This campaign is built to reach them where they are, before they make their next move.Your job? Put it in play and start turning this segment into your next source of listings.

The Anti-Hype Letter

In a shifting market, fear is cheap (and everywhere).

You can’t scroll YouTube without someone predicting the “big crash” or shouting “sell now before it’s too late.”

But here’s the thing: the data says otherwise. Decades of housing history show that every downturn recovers.

Which means panic‑selling is the fastest way to turn a temporary dip into a permanent loss.

That’s why this letter takes the opposite approach. Instead of peddling fear, it positions you as the steady, long‑view professional who helps people sell for the right reasons: fit, timing, lifestyle.

It’s the kind of message that builds trust when others are burning it.Send it monthly to your farm and watch your share of the market grow when confidence is in short supply.

Coming Soon: Skip the Waitlist

Scarcity sells, especially in real estate.

Tell someone they can’t have something, and suddenly it’s all they can think about.

That’s the psychology behind this campaign. It opens with a line most agents would never dare send: “I really shouldn’t share this listing with you…”

From there, it trades in curiosity, not information. No price. No exact address. Just a handful of vivid details, a whisper of exclusivity, and a simple CTA: text “VIP” to learn more.

This isn’t about announcing a listing, it’s about creating demand before it hits the market.Send it, and you’re not just marketing a home. You’re making it feel like an opportunity buyers can’t afford to miss.

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.

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.

Just Listed: High-Impact Improvements

Most Just Listed letters are forgettable. This one isn’t.

Because it doesn’t just announce a listing,it answers the one question every homeowner actually cares about: “Why should I care?”

This campaign leads with value: It highlights the specific, strategic improvements you made to prep the home, giving neighbors real ideas they can apply to their own property, whether they’re selling now or two years from now.

It does three things at once:
✔ Shows the caliber of work you do behind the scenes
✔ Educates homeowners on what buyers in their neighborhood really care about
✔ Keeps you top-of-mind as the expert who understands how to market a home, not just list one

It’s not just a listing announcement. It’s a positioning play.

How to avoid losing $23,000 if you sell your home in 2025

Right now, the typical homeowner wants $39K more than buyers are willing to pay. And too many agents are losing the conversation before it even starts, because they’re not showing the cost of a bad plan in real terms.

That’s what this campaign is built to do.

It takes sellers out of “let’s test the market” mode and shows them, clearly and calmly, how that mindset leads to a $23,000 mistake they never saw coming. Use this letter to reframe what smart pricing actually means in today’s market.

We based the $23K on a $500,000 home, factoring in two to three months of mortgage, taxes, insurance, and utilities. You can adjust the number to better reflect average home prices in your market.

Name Your Price Email

This campaign has generated millions of dollars in listing appointments. It's the incredibly popular Name Your Price campaign.

Here's a pro-tip: This tactic was originally designed to be an email campaign but really smart agents are leveraging it as a direct mail piece as well. 

When an idea works, extend it to other channels. 

Always double down on your winners.

Buyer Reactivation Text

When buyers re-enter the market, it usually starts with curiosity.

Not bold moves—just a sense that the timing might be better. 

This text leans into that energy with a useful offer at the right moment.

Buyer Budget Text

Even a small rate dip can reset the conversation.

Not just because affordability improves—but because buyers start to feel the difference. According to Redfin, a recent drop from 7.08% to 6.67% gave buyers with a $3K/month budget an extra $16,000 in purchasing power. That subtle shift can be enough to re-engage someone who’s been sitting on the sidelines.

This text uses a light touch to invite that kind of buyer back into the dialogue.

You might regret reading this

If you want to grab attention and convert curiosity into action, this campaign is your blueprint.

It’s built around three powerful marketing tactics designed to engage and persuade: Small Agreements, Objection Handling, and the Power of a Client Case Study.

By inviting homeowners to take a simple, no-pressure step—like texting for a free home value report—it lowers barriers, builds trust, and encourages incremental commitment.

At the same time, it proactively addresses a common objection: “I don’t want to sell my home,” reframing the conversation to focus on clarity and future possibilities.

Including a real client success story—selling a home for $25,000 over Zestimate—adds credibility and proves your expertise, making your offer even more compelling.

Together, these strategies create a message that inspires action and helps you win your next listing.

Pro-Tip: Add your client’s testimonial in the P.S. to build even more credibility and trust.

[Coming Soon] Don’t Say I Didn’t Warn You

Your listing marketing isn’t just about selling a home—it’s the best form of advertising you can do for your future sellers.

But too many agents see listing marketing as a task to check off, missing the bigger opportunity. Future sellers are watching closely.

They notice the creativity, care, and thought you put into promoting your clients’ listings and think, "I want that for my home."

I challenge you to think differently about every aspect of your listing marketing.

Make it an irresistible showcase of your expertise, so every seller in your market says, "That’s the agent I need."

VOTW: Buy (Property Type) For (Down Payment)

When something works, smart agents take note and adapt it for their own market. That’s exactly the inspiration behind this Instagram Reel script, modeled after Shaneé Dunbar, a Houston Realtor whose Reel went viral with over 938K views. Her simple yet compelling message—highlighting an affordable down payment and key features of a newly constructed quadplex—captured attention and generated massive engagement.

This script follows the same proven formula: showcase an attractive property, emphasize an accessible down payment, and highlight a standout feature or benefit. Pair the voiceover with eye-catching B-roll of the listing, and you’ve got a Reel that’s designed to stop scrolling and spark interest. Tailor it to your market, and let this strategy work for you.
