Text Scripts
This text works because it turns a simple follow-up into a high-response moment. Everyone who opened yesterday’s email is your prospecting list for this script.
The apology is the hook. It feels human, unscripted, and disarming.
Most agents close with low-status lines like “Let me know” or “Just following up.” Those phrases put you in a waiting position. High-status phrasing, the kind Mark Satterfield teaches, flips that dynamic. It shows confidence, direction, and leadership, exactly what clients want from an agent.
People love an apology
here's the thing is I will say this is the I'm sorry script is a killer killer
way to re-engage people who have let's say you miss an opportunity. So Sam
let's say you were part of my open house as an example.
script as a way to sort of bridge that gap for any old open house leads, but I'm not doing that mass marketing. I'm definitely doing that as a onetoone text.
Anyone who opened yesterday’s email is your prospecting list for this text. They’ve already shown interest - that’s all the qualification you need. This message is designed to follow up that signal in a way that feels personal, intentional, and low-pressure.
The key phrase here is: “The last time we talked you mentioned…”
Vanessa Van Edwards, a famous psychologist, teaches that this line immediately increases likability because it shows you listened and remembered. In real estate, being likable and competent builds trust quickly.
The hooks provided are simply examples, use the one that matches your actual past conversation with this person. The goal is to reference something specific, then end with an open, non-pushy question.
‍
This text is simple, sincere, and perfectly timed. Right now is the ideal moment to reach out to your 2025 clients with a quick message of genuine appreciation. These are the relationships that matter, and a small, thoughtful touch goes a long way.
The script is intentionally warm and straightforward. Use it as written, or personalize it with a detail from their move.Â
Pro-tip: Send this as a text or a 1:1 off-the-cuff video. It doesn’t need to be polished, authentic always beats produced.
This text is designed for everyone who opened your last email but didn’t respond.
It feels personal, conversational, and creates an easy opening for a reply without pressure.
Use it to re-engage homeowners who are sitting on the fence. It combines empathy about uncertainty with a soft offer of insight about what is actually selling right now.
This text works because it’s built on two simple but powerful psychological triggers: social proof and likability.
The opening line - “It seems like every week lately I hear from someone…” - taps into social proof, the idea that people look to others’ behavior to guide their own decisions. It lowers resistance by showing that change is normal right now, not risky.
Then comes likability, one of the most studied principles in persuasion. As Vanessa Van Edwards teaches, people are far more likely to respond to someone who makes them feel seen and valued. “Made me think of you” does exactly that - it’s warm, personal, and human.
The question at the end is strategic too. You’re not asking something abstract, you’re asking what they already know. That’s how you start more conversations that actually go somewhere.
Two years ago, rates were 7.91%. Now, they’re flirting with the fives.
Five isn’t just another number, it’s the magic number.
When rates are in the sixes, only 6% of prospective sellers think about selling. In the 5’s, that number jumps to 35%.
So what can you do with this information?

This time of year is perfect for a soft, strategic touchpoint.
As the year winds down, homeowners start thinking about what’s next - new goals, new plans, maybe even a move in 2025. That’s your cue to step in with something valuable: a personalized home value report.
Sure, you could blast it out to your whole list. But a smarter move is to focus on the people who opened yesterday’s email. That subject line did the qualifying for you. If they opened, they’re curious, and this text is your natural next step.
Rates just gave you the perfect reason to text.
With the daily average dipping to around 6.17% (the lowest we’ve seen in nearly three years) buyers are waking up again.
This text builds on that moment - with a home value angle. Send it to everyone who opened yesterday’s email.
This text is built to start conversations, especially with buyers who are curious but not yet committed. Everyone who opened yesterday’s email is your prospecting list for this one.
They’ve already shown interest by engaging with your email, so this is your chance to follow up while the curiosity’s still warm. The script works because it lowers defenses fast (“I know this is probably the wrong time”) and follows with a soft, natural ask (“out of curiosity…”).
It’s simple, disarming, and designed to get a reply.
Everyone who opened yesterday’s email is showing you something important: curiosity. They’re paying attention. That’s your prospecting list for today.
Reference the email as a relevant opening, then ask a question that’s easy to answer: “What’s one feature your current home is missing that your next one has to have?”
One of the secrets we’ve learned for effective outreach? Ask a question they already know the answer to.
Time to start more conversations.
This text is short on purpose, just one line. Have you given up on trying to buy a home this year? It’s straight out of Chris Voss’ playbook. By framing the question negatively, you lower defenses and invite an honest response. People are more likely to correct you (“No, I haven’t given up…”) than agree, which gets the conversation moving.
Send this to everyone who opened yesterday’s email and watch how many conversations you start.
This is where yesterday's email and this text strategy really comes together. Yesterday’s subject line did the heavy lifting: it got people to reveal themselves. They opened because they were curious what happens if rates drop. That’s intent. That’s interest. That’s how you qualify through copy.
Now you follow up with a simple, targeted text. Lead with real proof: you just helped a buyer lock in a lower rate. That’s news worth sharing. Then extend a clear, personal offer: “Want to see what your monthly payment would look like at [%]?”
It’s short. It’s direct. And it keeps the conversation moving forward with the people who already raised their hand.
This is where yesterday's email and this text strategy really come together. Yesterday’s subject line did the heavy lifting: it got people to reveal themselves. They opened because they were curious what happens if rates drop. That’s intent. That’s interest. That’s how you qualify through copy.
Now you follow up with a simple, targeted text. Lead with real proof: you just helped a buyer lock in a lower rate. That’s news worth sharing. Then extend a clear, personal offer: “Want to see what your monthly payment would look like at 6%?”
It’s short. It’s direct. And it keeps the conversation moving forward with the people who already raised their hand.
This one’s built for your SOI and past clients.
It’s a simple check-in without any agenda.
You lead with “I know you’re not in the market” which instantly lowers their guard. Then you layer in “I thought of you,” which, as Vanessa Van Edwards teaches, boosts likeability and connection.
From there, pick one of the hooks based on what’s happening near them:
• …just got listed and I thought of you. What do you think of the list price?
• …just had a price reduction and I thought of you. What do you think of the new price?
• …just sold and I thought of you. Did you see the final sale price?
It’s casual, relevant, and easy to respond to, which is exactly what keeps the conversation (and relationship) going.
Don’t text your whole list. Text the people who already raised a hand.
Everyone who opened yesterday’s email told you they’re paying attention- treat them like it.
This follow-up is simple on purpose. Lead with a direct reason you’re reaching out (“busy fall, lots of questions coming in”), then ask a clear multiple-choice question that’s effortless to answer. Short taps, fast signal. You’ll learn what matters - next home, payment, price, or something else - and you’ll know who to call first.
This is precision over volume. Send this only to yesterday’s openers, and watch who leans in.
Here’s how you generate more listings: Have more relevant conversations—consistently.
Most agents study the market daily. But few take that insight and share it directly with the people who care most: the homeowners in their sphere.
That’s what this text is for. It’s a simple 1:1 market update. Easy to digest. Personalized. Timely. And best of all—it gives you a natural reason to reach out at the start of each month.
Need a hook? Here are 5 ways to open the conversation:
- “I just saw 123 Main Street sold in your neighborhood.”
- “I noticed 123 Main Street had a price reduction recently.”
- “Looks like 3 homes near you hit the market last week.”
- “I saw inventory in your neighborhood is up 32% compared to this time last year.”
- “A home down the street just went under contract after sitting for 60 days.”
Each one flows naturally into: “Would it be helpful if I sent over a quick market update from May?”
You’re already reviewing the May data. So while it’s fresh, send 5 of these texts today.
Every season is a reason to touch base with your database.
This simple text not only allows you to nurture these relationships, it also positions you as a proactive advisor in their real estate plans.
Don't overthink it—send this text today. 👇
You don’t need a perfect script. You need a reason to reach out.
This text gives you one.
It’s inspired by The $100M Email, reworked to feel personal—because it is. One-to-one. Low pressure. High relevance.
Here’s why it works:
- It frames the offer around them—not your listing pipeline.
- It normalizes the ask by referencing what “a lot of clients” are doing.
- It positions you as someone who helps, not sells.
Don’t overthink it. Send it to 100 people today to start some conversations.
Most check-ins feel random. This one doesn’t.
When the market starts to shift—even slightly—it gives you a natural reason to reach out, lead with value, and re-engage your sphere.
This text is short, timely, and built around curiosity.
You’re not pushing. You’re offering perspective.
And for someone who’s been watching from the sidelines, that quick snapshot might be exactly what they need to start thinking seriously again.
This script works especially well after sending the Hypothetical Offer text—because it gives you a natural reason to follow up. You’re not just cold calling… you’re calling with context.
And if you do have a real buyer in hand, use that truthfully. It gives your outreach weight and urgency.
No buyer yet? No problem. You can still adapt the script to focus on potential interest or market activity.
Bottom line: only say you have a buyer if you actually do.
That’s rule #1 in marketing—don’t lie. Credibility compounds.
Use this call to open more doors, uncover hidden sellers, and stand out as the agent who’s willing to do the work most won’t.
‍
Most buyers struggle to answer the question: “Where exactly do you want to live?”
They feel overwhelmed by choices—or afraid to commit too early.
That’s where this text comes in.
It’s low-pressure, conversational, and just hypothetical enough to get them thinking more clearly about what they actually want.
And once they do? You’ve got the clarity you need to go hunt down the right opportunities—on or off market—and send the Magic Buyer Letter.
Use this text script to unlock those specifics… and set yourself up for smarter prospecting right after using this Circle Prospecting Phone Script.
This text is for the leads who’ve been sitting on the sidelines—watching, waiting, and weighing their options.
It was sparked by a Redfin article noting a clear trend: buyers today aren’t settling. They’re skipping over homes that don’t check the right boxes—and holding out for the ones that do.
That’s exactly what this message leans into.
It’s a straightforward, no-pressure way to surface interest from people who might be ready to move—if the right home shows up. Use it to start the kind of conversation that leads somewhere.
For Silver Tsunami sellers, cost of living isn’t just a number — it’s a trigger. A reason to reconsider. A lens through which every next move gets evaluated.
This script uses real-life social proof to start that conversation in a way that feels natural and non-threatening. You’re not asking them to sell. You’re sharing what’s possible — and planting the idea that a smarter, more affordable next chapter might already be within reach. Sometimes, all it takes is the right example to shift someone’s perspective.
In times like these, most people freeze.
Consumer confidence just hit a 12-year low. Headlines are loud. Predictions are all over the place. And your clients? They’re unsure, overwhelmed, and waiting for clarity that may never come.
But here’s what hasn’t changed—we’re still selling over 12,000 homes a day.
This text campaign is about meeting the moment. It’s not a hard sell. It’s a soft nudge. A simple, timely check-in that opens the door to a bigger conversation—one rooted in trust, relevance, and leadership.
In uncertain times, most people hit pause. The smartest agents? They press in.
This text is a low-pressure way to re-open conversations with people who’ve stepped back. It acknowledges what everyone’s feeling—without adding to the noise. Use it to:
• Create space for casual, judgment-free dialogue
• Offer a steady voice in a noisy market
• Signal that real movement is still happening
It’s not about pushing people to act—it’s about reminding them you’re here, paying attention, and ready when they are.
Silence isn’t strategy—it’s a missed opportunity.
This text gives you a simple way to re-engage people who’ve gone quiet. Right now, many are quietly watching the market, unsure whether to move forward or stay put. Your job? Open the door. Offer clarity. And make the next step feel less overwhelming. Use this script to:
• Gently restart paused conversations
• Create space for honest, pressure-free dialogue
• Position yourself as the go-to guide in uncertain times
It’s not pushy. It’s proactive. And that’s what makes it effective.
Many homeowners are feeling the weight of today's economic uncertainties. With concerns about rising prices and financial stability, understanding one's home equity becomes crucial. This script is crafted for personalized, one-on-one outreach to prospects, offering them clarity amidst the financial fog.​
By proactively addressing these economic concerns, you position yourself as a knowledgeable and trustworthy advisor, ready to guide clients through uncertain times.
Direct questions make people hesitate. Strategic statements make them lean in.
‍This campaign is built around the Elicitation Tactic—a psychology-backed approach where, instead of asking, you suggest. It’s subtle, but powerful. Because when people aren’t being pushed, they’re more likely to engage.
You’re not asking, “Would you sell?” You’re planting a thought:
“Wondering if there’s a number that would make the conversation worth having—even if selling wasn’t your plan for this year.”
It’s non-threatening. Emotionally intelligent. And perfect for sellers who aren’t raising their hand—but might be open, given the right offer.
The biggest mistake agents make with Open House follow-ups? Waiting too long to reach out.
Buyers move fast, and so should you. Following up the next day keeps the conversation fresh—while they still remember the home, their impressions, and most importantly, you.
This script is designed to feel natural, not scripted. It starts with permission (“Is now a bad time?”) and leans into curiosity (“What stood out to you?”). No pressure, no hard sell—just a real conversation that helps you understand where they are in the process.
If they loved the home, great. If not? Use this call to uncover what is a better fit and position yourself as the agent who listens.
Follow up early, ask the right questions, and turn Open House visitors into real clients.
Most follow-up texts fail because they feel like a sales pitch. This one works because it does the opposite—it gives the lead control.
“Should I contact you if…” is a powerful phrase. It shifts the conversation from pushing a sale to seeking permission. And that matters because people are more likely to engage when they feel like they’re choosing to.
But here’s the key: make it feel local. If they toured a home in [Neighborhood], reference it. If there are similar listings coming soon, hint at them. The goal isn’t just to follow up—it’s to keep the conversation open and position yourself as the agent they want to hear from.
Use this text to re-engage buyers without sounding pushy.
Most agents only reach out when someone raises their hand to buy or sell. That’s a mistake. The key to long-term business? Staying relevant before they need you. Homeowners are naturally curious about the market—especially their home’s value—but they rarely take the initiative to ask. This script taps into that curiosity using a simple yet effective double-text technique—one message to spark interest, followed by a quick follow-up to prompt action. It’s an easy way to stay in front of your sphere without feeling pushy.
This text works because it turns a simple follow-up into a high-response moment. Everyone who opened yesterday’s email is your prospecting list for this script.
The apology is the hook. It feels human, unscripted, and disarming.
Most agents close with low-status lines like “Let me know” or “Just following up.” Those phrases put you in a waiting position. High-status phrasing, the kind Mark Satterfield teaches, flips that dynamic. It shows confidence, direction, and leadership, exactly what clients want from an agent.
