Control the Narrative

Introduction

A brand-new survey from Realtor.com, released April 14, reveals something surprising: 70% of potential sellers still believe it’s a good time to sell. 

On the surface, that might seem disconnected from reality—especially with consumer confidence at a 12-year low and recession fears looming. 

But sellers aren’t waiting for perfect conditions. They’re driven by life events, equity gains, and the urgency to move forward. 

Even now, we’re selling over 12,000 homes a day. 

This campaign helps you speak directly to that motivated seller—the one who needs clarity. 

Keep your head in the game. The consumer needs you more than ever.

Before you get started

For best results with direct mail, you’ll want to have these core lists ready.

Before you send a text, make sure you have these three things in place:

Before you send an email, make sure these three things are in place:

This is your core mailing audience—used for general awareness and market education. Build your list using the following filters:

  • Homeowners who’ve owned for 10+ years
  • 50%+ equity
  • Areas with strong total commission opportunity (transaction volume × average price)

Start with 1,000 homes. Expand if it’s working. Need help pulling the list? Ask your title rep or use tools like PropStream or Breakthrough Broker.

Used for campaigns like Just Listed, Just Sold, Magic Buyer, or Pre-Appointment letters.You’ll need the ability to quickly pull 100–200 nearby homes around a specific property.

Used for targeted campaigns like Expired Listings, Silver Tsunami, and FSBOs.
Pull these from platforms like RedX or similar.

An Email Tool

You need a platform that lets you send mass emails to your database. Use what you have—FUB, Follow Up Boss, Mailchimp, KVCore, Constant Contact, etc. If you’re not set up yet, get that handled first. You can’t send if you can’t hit send.

2

Three Simple Lists

You need three lists:

Prospects

Recommended Audience For This Campaign

People you haven't done business with.

SOI/Past Clients

Recommended Audience For This Campaign

People you have.

Entire Database

Recommended Audience For This Campaign

All contacts.

These lists let you send smarter without overthinking.
3

A Plain Text Format

These emails are written to feel personal, not promotional—so keep them clean. Paste them as-is, with a short signature (your name, number, maybe your site). That’s it.

A CRM That Can Send Texts

Most modern CRMs can do this—Follow Up Boss, Lofty, Brivity, Real Geeks, etc. Use your CRM before buying anything new. You’ll want tracking, history, and batch-sending capabilities.

If you do need a mass texting tool, here’s what we recommend. But start with manual sends if you have to.

Three Simple Lists

Texting is for follow-up. And smart follow-up starts with the right filters.

Set up three lists:

Prospects

Recommended Audience For This Campaign

People you haven’t done business with.

SOI/Past Clients

Recommended Audience For This Campaign

People you have.

Entire Database

Recommended Audience For This Campaign

All contacts.

Apply two filters:

Engaged Recently

Opened an email or visited your site in the last 7 days.

Not Contacted Recently

No outreach in 30 days (for prospects) or 90 days (for clients).

That overlap—engaged but untouched—is your sweet spot. That’s who you text.

A Plain Text Format

These aren’t spam blasts. They’re timely, value-based follow-ups. Use their first name. Skip the signatures.

I just finished reading a new survey from Realtor.com:

70% of potential sellers think it’s a good time to sell.

At first glance, that might sound out of touch—especially with so much economic uncertainty and mixed messages in the headlines.

But when you look closer, it makes more sense. It’s not about timing the market—it’s about life. Job changes, growing families, downsizing, rising costs.

Most sellers aren’t chasing ideal conditions—they’re making the best decisions they can.

81% believe they’ll get their asking price or more.

Why? Because inventory is still low—30% below pre-2020 levels—and the average homeowner now holds just 48% loan-to-value, the strongest equity position in a decade.

I know this market can feel overwhelming—especially when no one really knows what’s coming next.

But I’ll keep sharing what I’m seeing.
