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.

A state of the union on buyer demand

This sales letter works because it’s timely, relevant, and low-pressure. It starts by grabbing attention with a 12% jump in mortgage applications—a statistic that feels significant, especially when paired with the 52% year-over-year increase. This creates curiosity and positions you as a knowledgeable expert.

It’s effective because it connects the data to the reader’s situation. By highlighting the growing pool of buyers and how it could lead to more offers and higher prices, it gives homeowners a reason to consider their options.

The call-to-action is simple: “Text me your address.” It feels personal, easy, and offers immediate value—a professional home value report. Even if they’re not planning to sell, it’s worth it to stay informed. The calm, conversational tone builds trust without any pressure, making it more likely they’ll take action.

This letter stands out because it delivers useful information, offers real value, and makes it easy for homeowners to respond.

EOTW: 12% Jump

Your database is full of potential opportunities—but only if you stay top-of-mind with the right message. This email taps into current market data to spark curiosity and engagement from homeowners, positioning you as the expert they can trust.

VOTW: Before Selling Your Home in (AREA), You MUST DO This!

This video is a no-brainer for agents because it taps into what every homeowner is curious about: how to sell their home for top dollar.

The original version of this idea outperformed average engagement by 350%—that’s proof this type of content works. Homeowners crave value-packed insights, and this video gives it to them in a way that’s easy to follow and deeply relatable.

TOTW: Mortgage Rates & Feelings

This text is perfect for re-engaging cold leads because it combines timely, relevant market insights with a non-threatening, open-ended question.

Deal of the Week Social

We’ve been testing a lot of ways to bring the Deal of the Week strategy to Stories—and this one’s a winner.

It’s simple. Swipeable. And engineered to build momentum before the CTA hits.

Instead of leading with a poll (which can feel rushed), we let the story unfold over 3 slides—hook → details → standout features—then drop the poll. That structure alone gave us 6x more engagement in recent tests.

The best part? This is one of those rare story templates that works whether you're showing your face or not. You can record a walkthrough, use listing photos, or keep it text-only and still make it feel personal and high-value.

We pulled the hook from one of the 1,200 top-performing Instagram creators we track at Listing Leads—and built the rest to help you execute fast.

Use it to spotlight hidden gems, test urgency-driven content, or just stay top of mind with serious buyers.

IG Reel: The secret to getting a lowball offer accepted

This is the kind of content buyers actually save.

It answers a question they’re already thinking about—“Can I make a low offer?”—and gives them a smart, helpful framework for when and how that works.

The beauty of this Reel? You don’t even need to be on camera.
The caption does the heavy lifting, walking through timing, terms, and tone—while the Reel itself can be as simple as a text-based hook or B-roll with overlay.

We know listings are sitting on the market longer right now, so we thought this might be a good moment to meet the market with a message like this. It’s timely, relevant—and likely to resonate.

“I wanted to buy a home this year but about to give up because…”

After analyzing thousands of real estate creators, we’ve noticed a trend: the highest-engagement polls are often the most casual. They feel like a text from a friend, not a marketing post. That’s exactly what this story is designed to do.

Starting with “Debated not posting this…” immediately disarms your audience. It signals vulnerability and curiosity—two powerful triggers that drive replies, votes, and DMs. Pair that with a low-maintenance design and a simple poll format, and you’ve got a high-impact story that feels spontaneous but is strategically built for engagement.

Use this poll to re-engage buyers who may be silently struggling or considering stepping out of the market. It opens the door to honest conversations—and gives you a soft way to reintroduce helpful guidance.

[Your City] Propaganda I Am Absolutely Falling For

This Reel taps into a trend that’s everywhere right now (like here) — and for good reason.

It’s not just funny. It’s tribal. It’s us vs. them, but in the most charming, slightly unhinged, deeply relatable way.

“[Your City] Propaganda I Am Absolutely Falling For” is your chance to lovingly call out the oddly specific, wildly inaccurate, and completely accepted delusions your city lives by.

Think: overpriced habits, generational conditioning, chaotic seasonal rituals — all delivered like a late-night group chat that got out of hand (in the best way).

Why it works:

  • Builds instant connection with your local audience
  • Makes people laugh and feel seen
  • Reinforces that you're not just a local expert — you’re one of them

And best of all? It’s ridiculously easy to make. Swap in your city, riff on 15 local one-liners, hit post, and watch the comments roll in: “ALL OF THE ABOVE ❤️” “Felt way too seen 😭” “Okay but why is this actually true?”

Some will laugh, some will argue, and some will start adding their own. That’s when you know it’s working.

Every seller we work with has second thoughts right before we list. Here’s why →

We hear it all the time from top agents: "The marketing was so good, my sellers joked they didn’t want to move anymore."

That insight sparked this post.

We turned it into a carousel with a hook that sellers (and future clients) can’t ignore:

“Every seller we work with has second thoughts right before we list.”

Because this is your moment to show the sweat—to spotlight the prep, the polish, the vision-building that happens before a home ever hits the market.

This carousel helps you:

  • Show off your behind-the-scenes process
  • Explain why marketing matters
  • Make a confident call to action to DM when it’s time to sell

Smart. Emotional. Sharable.That’s the kind of marketing that sells homes and builds your brand.
