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.

Expired Marketing - Call Script 1

This script changes the approach. It validates their frustration and shifts the conversation from what went wrong to how to make it right. Instead of pushing, it opens the door to a real dialogue—one that positions you as the agent who actually understands their challenges.

Use this script to disarm objections, build trust, and start conversations that lead to listings.

This is how much you need to make if you wanted to buy…

Most buyers have no idea what it actually takes to afford a home. They scroll listings, see the price, and assume it’s out of reach—without ever running the numbers.

That’s why this post works. It doesn’t just show a home—it makes the math real. It answers the #1 question buyers have: Can I afford this?

Inspired by Selene Hanna’s viral Instagram Reel, we’ve turned her script into a high-performing carousel. The best part? You can use it to market your own listings—or someone else’s (with permission, of course).

Ready to start conversations with serious buyers? Let’s dive in.

The Emotion-Driven Just Sold

Most “Just Sold” posts focus on the numbers—sale price, days on market, multiple offers. But this? This is about the moment a seller realizes their home is officially sold. The relief. The excitement. The deep breath after weeks (or months) of waiting.

Inspired by Bridgette Harrington’s viral reel, this isn’t about data—it’s about the human side of real estate. The emotions, the milestones, the stories that make this job so rewarding.

This reel captures that moment. And trust me, it’s the kind of content people feel—which is exactly why it resonates.

Why Pricing Your Home High Is A Risky Strategy

Pricing your home too high might feel like a smart move—you can always lower it later, right? But in reality, overpricing can do more harm than good.

The first week on the market is everything. That’s when serious buyers are searching, ready to make offers. But if your price is too high? You risk getting ignored, losing momentum, and ultimately selling for less than if you had priced it right from the start.

This carousel breaks down why overpricing is risky—and how to price strategically to attract strong offers.

Selling FSBO. How do I…

Most FSBO sellers think pricing is just about their home. But buyers don’t see it that way. They compare every listing in the market before making a move—and if a home doesn’t stack up, they scroll right past it.

That’s why this Reel works. Instead of telling FSBO sellers their price is wrong, it helps them see why pricing strategically matters. It gives them a buyer’s perspective, shifts their mindset, and naturally leads to the CMA offer as the solution.

The goal? Provide value first, spark awareness, and make it easy for them to take the next step.

You Won’t Find This Info On Zillow…

Most buyers walk into a home and see potential. They see possibilities, aesthetics, the way the space feels. But as an agent, your job isn’t just to see what is—it’s to spot what could be a problem before it becomes a regret. That’s the difference between an emotional decision and a smart investment.

Inspired by Marie Lee’s viral Instagram Reel, this perspective shift will help your clients make sharper, more informed choices.

Client Success Story: Worried about fixing up your home before you sell?

Most sellers assume they need to spend thousands fixing up their home before listing. But what if that’s not actually the case?

This Instagram carousel doesn’t just challenge that assumption—it proves it wrong with a real success story. Instead of pushing renovations, it walks homeowners through a real-life example of a seller who skipped the costly upgrades, found the right buyer, and walked away with $XX,XXX more than they would have made with an iBuyer.

By the end, the message is clear: before they spend a dime, they should DM you first. Real results, real strategy, and a CTA designed to start conversations. Let’s get it posted!

Worried about fixing up your home before you sell?

Most sellers assume they need to spend thousands fixing up their home before listing. But what if that’s not actually the case?

This Instagram carousel is designed to challenge that assumption. Instead of pushing renovations, it shifts the focus to what actually matters—buyer demand, strategic positioning, and connecting with the right buyers.

The slides walk homeowners through a counterintuitive insight: upgrades aren’t always necessary, and in many cases, skipping them can lead to a faster, more profitable sale. By the end, the CTA is clear—before they spend a dime, they should DM you first.

Simple, effective, and built to spark engagement. Let’s get it posted!

Expired Marketing Video Script

A marketing message that speaks directly to a specific type of seller is far more powerful than a generic one. 

This script is designed for homeowners struggling to get their home sold—sellers who are frustrated, uncertain, and looking for real answers. 

By addressing their pain points head-on, you position yourself as the agent who knows how to get a home sold. 

Inspired by Tyler Drinkwater’s excellent Reel, this script calls out the biggest reason listings fail—poor positioning—and provides a clear path forward. 

Pair this with the Expired Marketing Blueprint to strengthen your strategy and establish yourself as the go-to expert.

Step 4: Proceed to the Share Screen

Just Sold Carousel

A Just Sold carousel is a real estate marketing staple—and for good reason. It’s a compelling way to showcase real results, build trust, and plant the seed for future sellers. 

Originally inspired by Katie Lucie’s direct mail letter, this carousel repurposes that proven format for Instagram, making it easy to share your next impressive sale.

The hook? A striking price difference between an online estimate and the final sale. It keeps people swiping, reinforces the value of strategic marketing, and ends with a clear call to action.
