The secret to getting a lowball offer accepted

Introduction

You don’t need to shout to stand out. You need to say the thing buyers are already wondering, and answer it better than anyone else.

This campaign does exactly that.

“Can I make a low offer?”

It’s a question your audience might be asking. Now you get to be the one who answers with clarity, strategy, and calm authority.

It’s timely, relevant, and built to meet the market where it is—while positioning you as the professional who knows how to work it.

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.

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.

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.

If you're eyeing a property and wondering whether a lower offer might land, you’re not wrong to ask. Lowballing can work, but only under the right conditions.

Here’s what we’ve seen work in today’s market:

1. Timing is everything.
Homes that have been sitting 60–90 days (or pulled and relisted) often signal flexibility. Sellers in that window are usually more open to negotiating, especially if the property’s been overlooked.

2. The rest of the offer needs to be airtight.
Think: strong financing, short inspection window, flexible close date. When everything else runs smoothly, a lower price becomes easier to accept.

3. The discount still has to make sense.
A 10–15% reduction is often within range. But if the gap is too wide, most sellers won’t even counter. It’s not just about being aggressive, it’s about being taken seriously.

And yes, who presents the offer matters more than most people think. A thoughtful, professional approach changes the tone of the entire conversation.
