When sellers price for the market they remember - not the one they’re in - homes sit, prices drop, or listings disappear.
That’s the story behind two new reports from Realtor.com and Clever, and the reason we built this campaign.
The data is clear: 72% of future sellers think they’ll get over asking. Only 42% of recent sellers actually did. Nearly half had to cut their price. And delistings? Up 47% year-over-year.
This email helps you name that disconnect and start the kind of conversation that leads to smarter pricing, stronger positioning, and fewer surprises. We also added a soft P.S. for buyers because in this market, some well-priced homes are absolute steals.

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.
With new listings surging across Canada—an 11% jump in January alone, the biggest supply increase since the 1980s—buyers have more options than they’ve seen in years (Financial Post). But more inventory doesn’t mean an easier search. It means competition, faster-moving deals, and the need to act decisively when the right home appears.

Your clients want to time the market. The perfect moment to sell. The lowest rate to buy. It feels like the smart move—like they’re outmaneuvering everyone else.Â
But here’s the uncomfortable truth you need to help them see: trying to time the market often costs more than it saves.Â
The pros—like you—know the market isn’t something to predict; it’s something to work with.Â
Your job is to shift their focus: does making a move this year align with their life and goals? This email will help you start that conversation.

Most sellers think putting their home on Zillow is enough. It’s not. Exposure is what drives demand, and demand is what creates the result your clients want. A listing buried among thousands won’t cut it.
The difference? A marketing strategy that works harder. Not just a sign in the yard or a post on Zillow—but a relentless, multi-channel approach that puts your home in front of serious buyers. A marketing strategy like yours.

If you have an off-market opportunity, this is the perfect email to send to your list of buyers.
Scarcity creates demand. The moment something feels exclusive—something others can’t have—it becomes even more desirable. Off-market properties tap into this psychology, but only if you position them the right way. The mistake most agents make? They focus only on the property itself. But buyers don’t just want a home—they want an edge, too.
Most sellers assume that making updates before listing is a must. But the truth? Some renovations add value—others just drain your wallet.
This direct mail sales letter challenges the idea that every home needs a facelift before hitting the market. Instead of pushing sellers toward costly upgrades, it positions you as a strategic advisor—someone who helps them make smart decisions based on real market data. The message is clear: before they waste time and money on unnecessary projects, they should talk to you first.
To make this even more compelling, the letter includes a visual graphic highlighting specific home improvements and their return on investment. This gives sellers a quick, digestible way to see which updates actually pay off.
Pro tip: Update the ROI data based on your local market insights. Customizing these numbers will make the letter even more relevant and persuasive for homeowners in your area.
This stat blew me away: Opendoor has purchased 30,000 homes over the last two years.
Now, why does this matter? As an agent who wants more listings, you need to identify underserved niches in the market and get the right message in front of them.Â
When I look at Reddit and other forums, sellers who choose Opendoor often mention convenience, certainty, and speed—but overwhelmingly, the biggest reason is avoiding repairs. They don’t want the hassle of fixing up their home before selling.
That’s a huge opportunity. Homeowners who have lived in their homes for 20+ years likely have repairs to make, and many believe their only option is selling to an iBuyer. This direct mail campaign speaks directly to them, showing a better alternative—you.Â
Use this letter to stop losing deals to companies like Opendoor and position yourself as the agent who knows how to get their home sold.
Most agents play the long game with home value leads, waiting months—sometimes years—for them to convert. But if you want to fill your listing pipeline now, you need to focus on a different group: homeowners requesting CMAs.
Why? Because 18% of homeowners who request a CMA list their home within 12 months. (Source: Fello) That’s nearly 1 in 5. And while most agents chase colder leads, this strategy puts you in front of sellers who are already thinking about making a move.
This text is so effective because it challenges assumptions. Homeowners trust online estimates, but when they see how far off they can be, it sparks curiosity—and that curiosity turns into conversation.

Most agents wait for homeowners to ask about their home’s value. But the best agents don’t wait for permission to be helpful. They anticipate the need and show up with value—before the homeowner even thinks to ask.
That’s what makes this text so effective. Instead of offering a generic CMA, you’re telling them you’re already working on it. It’s proactive, it’s personal, and it naturally sparks a conversation.
This text campaign is simple but powerful. Instead of just handing over a home value report, it starts a conversation. By asking about recent or planned updates, you engage the homeowner, make them think differently about their investment, and position yourself as the expert who helps them maximize it.
Most sellers assume they need to spend thousands fixing up their home before they can sell. But here’s the truth: They might not need to.
This email is so effective because it challenges that assumption with real results. If you recently worked with a client who had an outdated home, needed big-ticket repairs, and believed a traditional sale wasn’t worth the hassle, this is your chance to shift their perspective. Instead of pouring money into renovations or taking a lowball offer from an iBuyer, they leaned on your network of buyers. The result? A sale that netted them significantly more than an instant offer.
The key takeaway: Selling as-is isn’t a last resort—it’s a strategy. And when sellers have the right expert in their corner, they don’t have to choose between convenience and maximizing their profit.
