Direct Mail Templates
During the busy Spring season you were likely too busy to send out your “Just Sold” letter.
Don’t worry, we’ve got you :)
Here’s what we want you to do:
1. Make a list of all your notable sales in the Spring.
2. Create a personalized version of the letter below.
3. Mail them to all the similar homes in the neighborhood.
It’s never too late to send a Just Sold.
Every time you complete a CMA, you’re sitting on a conversation starter.
Steve Stych sent a version of this letter and got a listing appointment that turned into a signed listing. His total mailing cost? About $225. His GCI? $15,000.
That’s the power of turning your most marketable CMA into a direct mail campaign. Do 5–10 CMAs a week. Pick the one with the strongest story. Send this letter. It’s simple, repeatable, and it works.
The “reasons to sell” letter is one of our most successful direct mail campaigns because it destroys the biggest objection right out of the gate: “It’s not a good time to sell.” By grounding your message in real, local data - buyer activity, price stability, and days on market - you’re helping prospective sellers shift their perspective.
Plug in your numbers. Customize the reasons if needed. The key is relevance: make it unmistakably about your market, not the national headlines. Then get this one printed for your farm. It’s direct, data-backed, and proven to convert hesitation into conversation.
You don’t win listings by saying the same thing every other agent says. You win by showing sellers you have something no one else can match.
As a Zillow partner agent, you’re not just another option in the stack, you’re the clear advantage. Sellers already know Zillow is where buyers look. What they don’t know is how Showcase tilts the playing field in your favor: more views, more engagement, faster offers, and often higher prices.
This direct mail letter does the heavy lifting for you. Bring it to the table at your next listing appointment (or send it to your farm) and let the numbers speak for themselves.
This letter works.
The ZMA campaign has been one of our most successful direct mail pieces because it’s simple, personal, and impossible to ignore.
You’re not just dropping a flyer. You’re sending their home, printed straight from either Realtor.ca, HouseSigma, or something similar, with their online estimate circled in pen and a handwritten sticky note that asks: “Would you consider selling for more than this?”
It’s bold. And it sparks exactly the kind of conversation you want with potential sellers.
This updated version keeps the magic of the original which is, the handwritten feel, the direct question but sharpens the copy to drive more responses.
Use it to cut through the noise and get real answers from homeowners who might be more ready than they think.

We should probably go ahead and recruit Scott Steadman for the creative team at ListingLeads.com. The postcard he shared in our Mastermind Group was that good. From the headline to the body copy to the clear CTA, it nailed everything. Naturally, we had to turn his brilliance into a template you can use for your own Just Sold campaigns.
Here’s why this matters: most “Just Sold” postcards blend into the pile of mail on the counter. They brag about the sale but fail to connect with the neighbor holding the card. This one cuts through. It speaks to the reality of the market, shows proof of performance, and gives homeowners a clear next step. That combination is what creates conversations, and conversations are what lead to listings.
A “Just Sold” letter without the story behind it is a wasted opportunity. Numbers alone don’t inspire confidence, but details do. Homeowners want to know how you got the result, not just that you did. That’s where this campaign shines.
S/O to Vanessa Reilly who created the Just Sold letter (her example below) that inspired this template.
By pulling back the curtain - sharing the strategy, the marketing, the preparation - you’re showing the sweat. You’re giving neighbors insider access they won’t get from Zillow or Redfin. This positions you not as another agent bragging about a sale, but as the expert who knows exactly how to maximize value in their neighborhood.
If you’ve got a standout sale, this is the letter that turns it into momentum. Clear proof. Clear results. And a clear next step for anyone wondering, “What could my home sell for?”
Don’t wait until you secure the listing to start building relationships with the neighbors.
Here’s a strategy to implement as soon as you book the listing appointment:
1. Build a list of nearby homes using a tool like Propstream.
2. Send this letter to the neighbors.
If the first time the neighbors hear from you is when you’ve sold the home, you’re missing valuable opportunities.
By consistently engaging with neighbors at each stage of the listing process, you’re doing more than selling a home, you’re building your listing pipeline.
This strategy can effectively transform one listing opportunity into two or three additional ones.
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.

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.
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.
A good Coming Soon campaign doesn’t just build anticipation—it builds connection.
This letter taps into something we see all the time in tight-knit neighborhoods: someone hears a home is hitting the market, and immediately thinks, “I wonder if [friend/family member] would want to live here…”
We designed this campaign to make that moment more powerful.
It gives neighbors first-look access plus insider prep details they won’t find online—creating a sense of trust, transparency, and exclusivity. It makes them feel like they’re in the loop, not just on the list. And if they know someone looking? You’re now the obvious person to call.
This isn’t just a teaser. It’s a hand-delivered reason to talk about your listing before it goes live. Use it to spark conversations and referrals.
Most Just Listed letters are forgettable. This one isn’t.
Because it doesn’t just announce a listing,it answers the one question every homeowner actually cares about: “Why should I care?”
This campaign leads with value: It highlights the specific, strategic improvements you made to prep the home, giving neighbors real ideas they can apply to their own property, whether they’re selling now or two years from now.
It does three things at once:
✔ Shows the caliber of work you do behind the scenes
✔ Educates homeowners on what buyers in their neighborhood really care about
✔ Keeps you top-of-mind as the expert who understands how to market a home, not just list one
It’s not just a listing announcement. It’s a positioning play.
Right now, the typical homeowner wants $39K more than buyers are willing to pay. And too many agents are losing the conversation before it even starts, because they’re not showing the cost of a bad plan in real terms.
That’s what this campaign is built to do.
It takes sellers out of “let’s test the market” mode and shows them, clearly and calmly, how that mindset leads to a $23,000 mistake they never saw coming. Use this letter to reframe what smart pricing actually means in today’s market.
We based the $23K on a $500,000 home, factoring in two to three months of mortgage, taxes, insurance, and utilities. You can adjust the number to better reflect average home prices in your market.
