Introduction
A new report just dropped, and it’s the perfect opportunity to reach out to your database with valuable, timely information.
BNN Bloomberg just covered National Bank’s latest Housing Affordability Monitor, which shows that affordability in Canada improved for the fourth consecutive quarter. Rising incomes and lower mortgage rates are helping offset higher home prices, bringing mortgage payments to their lowest level as a percentage of income in nearly three years.
That’s a shift your audience needs to know about.
This email gives buyers a reason to re-evaluate their options and helps sellers understand what this means for demand. It positions you as the go-to resource for market insights while staying relevant and data-driven.

The Deal of the Week strategy needs to be added to your weekly marketing SOPs. It's simple, repeatable, and highly effective.
Brad McCallum sent this email and got 20 replies.
The best part?
It wasn't their listing.
But here's the thing...
This email is just the beginning.
Repurpose your Deal of the Week into an IG poll and an SOI text.
This is how you can take a winning marketing campaign and maximize the impact.
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.
We call this a “fast ball” email because it’s quick, clean, and built to get replies.
It leads with empathy. It sounds personal, even off-the-cuff. And it mirrors the exact conversations many agents are already having right now, where people want to move but feel frozen by uncertainty.
The format is simple on purpose: A short, genuine note that puts a few common scenarios on the table and invites the reader to raise their hand. That’s it.
Let’s get it out there.
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.
Targeting Non-Owner Occupied Homeowners:
This letter is specifically crafted to appeal to non-owner occupied homeowners—those who own a second home or investment property but do not live in it. These homeowners are often more financially and emotionally detached from their second properties, making them more likely to consider selling when market conditions change.
Psychological Appeal:
This letter leverages several psychological principles to connect with homeowners considering selling their second homes:
- Social Proof: By stating that many homeowners are in the same situation, it reassures the reader that they are not alone. This social proof reduces the anxiety of making a big decision like selling a home.
- Authority: Citing reputable sources like Redfin and Yahoo Finance establishes credibility. It shows that the insights provided are backed by data, enhancing trust.
- Empathy: The letter acknowledges the reader's potential frustrations and challenges, creating an empathetic connection. Understanding the reader's pain points makes them feel heard and understood.
- Scarcity and Urgency: The mention of declining demand and rising costs implies that the optimal time to sell may be now. This sense of urgency can prompt quicker action from homeowners.
- Simplicity and Clarity: The letter breaks down complex market dynamics into easily digestible points. Clear, concise language ensures that the message is accessible to all readers.

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:
Farm List
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.
Radius Lists
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.
Specialty Lists
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
People you haven't done business with.
SOI/Past Clients
People you have.
Entire Database
All contacts.
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.
Prospects
People you haven’t done business with.
SOI/Past Clients
People you have.
Entire Database
All contacts.
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).
A Plain Text Format
These aren’t spam blasts. They’re timely, value-based follow-ups. Use their first name. Skip the signatures.
