“This and…” works because it pulls people straight into a dreamstate. Two words are all it takes for them to picture a life they want: morning coffee in the sunroom, golden‑hour dinners on the deck, a run through the park. It’s not about selling a feature; it’s about letting them feel it.
That’s why this viral hook stops the scroll. It’s simple, fast, and ridiculously flexible, perfect for highlighting a listing, showcasing a neighborhood, or sharing a lifestyle moment. Below, you’ll find a list of ready‑made hooks to spark ideas, or use them as inspiration to create your own. Pair one with a short clip or photo, and you’re inviting people into a feeling they’ll want to step into.
The data says it all: many buyers aren’t stuck because they’ve lost interest—they’re stuck because they’re not sure what to do next.
Cotality’s latest research found that only 7% described the buying process as straightforward. The rest hit moments of doubt, kept questions to themselves, and moved forward without full clarity. Sometimes they didn’t know who to ask. Sometimes they felt they should already know.
That’s why this poll works. It gives buyers a low‑pressure way to say, “Yep, I’m unsure.” And once they do, you have an open door to guide them—turning uncertainty into momentum, and curiosity into conversations.
You already know the power of Deal of the Week. This version is built for Stories.
We start with the hook, then layer in the details, then highlight the features that make this one stand out. Only after the curiosity builds do you invite them to raise their hand. In recent tests, that structure alone delivered 6x more engagement.
The hook itself? We pulled it from one of the 1,200 top‑performing Instagram posts we track at Listing Leads, and built the rest so you can execute fast.
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.
Use this format to test urgency, stay visible with buyers, and stay top of mind.
This is your plug-and-play July market update. Short. Visual. Crazy effective.
We’ve seen this exact format rack up thousands of views across top-performing creators, and for good reason. It’s fast to build, easy to watch, and delivers exactly what buyers and sellers want: real numbers, real sales, and real context about what homes are actually going for.
This reel template is fully customizable. Drop in your local sold data, adjust the price ceiling, and update the neighborhoods. In under 10 minutes, you’ve got a scroll-stopping post that builds authority without having to say a word.
A lot of sellers assume they need to renovate before they list. It feels like the “smart” thing to do. The responsible thing.
But in today’s market? That instinct doesn’t always pay off.
This Instagram carousel gives you a sharp, scroll-stopping way to challenge the assumption. You’re not saying don’t renovate. You’re showing them that not every project delivers a return, and some can even turn buyers off completely.
Because when you help them avoid expensive mistakes, you earn the right to guide their next move.
This IG reel is fast, visual, and ridiculously easy to execute, but it’s also backed by real data from Zillow, NAHB, and HomeLight on what today’s buyers are actually looking for.
Post as-is or update any of the ten points to reflect what you’re seeing in your market.
Inspired by a killer reel from Rick J Lee, and built around the same psychology behind our “What’s the chance?” text, we’re lowering the bar and opening the loop.
“Getting back in the market” feels casual. The options feel safe. But the insight you get? Game-changing.
This one’s short, strategic, and built for engagement.
This Reel is for the sellers who are feeling anxious, and for the agents who want to speak to that emotion with honesty.
The campaign was inspired by a fantastic post from Shannon Gillette, who nailed what so many homeowners are feeling right now: “We’re doing everything right… so why hasn’t it sold?”
We took that message and reshaped it into a simple, text-based Reel you can post as-is with a reassuring message that normalizes slower sales and reminds sellers: it’s not just you, this is the market.
Update the “average days on market” to match your area, choose a reflective or trending audio, and post it.
If your Story views are strong but engagement is flat—this is the format to fix it.
We’ve been testing all kinds of ways to bring the “Deal of the Week” to Stories—and this one's a keeper.
It’s visual. It’s clever. And it mimics a play we’re seeing everywhere from top influencers: tease the value, show a receipt (like listing views), then drop the link behind an emoji.
Why does it work? Because it builds curiosity before it asks for action.
You’re not shouting “BUY!”—you’re drawing attention to demand. That alone makes this feel less like an ad, more like a can’t-miss opportunity.
The best part? You only need one slide. A Zillow screenshot. A few strategic details. A clear price anchor.
And everyone who clicks? That’s your follow-up list.

This Story poll is a simple way to turn views into conversations.
By offering specific options (price, feature, location), you give buyers an easy, non-intrusive way to raise their hand.
It works because it feels like help, not a sales pitch.
Customize the options based on what buyers in your market are actually searching for, then post.
When responses come in, check your DMs and follow up with confidence.
See below for recommended follow-up scripts to keep the convo going.
You’re not just selling homes. You’re selling certainty—in a market full of doubt.
The mistake? Thinking your experience speaks for itself. It doesn’t. Not anymore.
We saw this video by Dewayne Carpenter—just 90 seconds, no fluff, no hype—and it stopped us cold. It framed experience not as ego, but as an edge. And it did what most agent videos don’t: it made us feel the value of working with someone who’s done the reps.
So we reverse-engineered it.
We broke down the structure, reworked the beats, and wrote you a script that’s ready to record—without sounding like a script. Something you could put on your homepage, pin to your YouTube channel, or use as a trust-building asset when someone’s deciding whether to hit “schedule a call.”
This isn’t about flexing your résumé. It’s about translating experience into language the consumer actually understands—and values.
Use this to show—not tell—why working with you isn’t a gamble. It’s a shortcut.
Inventory's up. Some buyers are paying closer attention—but they haven’t all told an agent they’re looking.
This story helps you change that—without being pushy.
It’s a simple market update with a smart twist: a timely stat, a relatable poll, and a chance to spot who's quietly keeping tabs on new listings. Use it to stay visible, start conversations, and surface warm leads hiding in plain sight.
Pro tip: Anyone who taps the poll is showing interest. Send them a quick DM to start the conversation.
Note: You can swap “Zillow” with Realtor.ca, HouseSigma, or whatever’s most familiar to your audience.
We’ve been testing a lot of ways to bring the Deal of the Week strategy to Stories—and this one’s a winner.
It’s simple. Swipeable. And engineered to build momentum before the CTA hits.
Instead of leading with a poll (which can feel rushed), we let the story unfold over 3 slides—hook → details → standout features—then drop the poll. That structure alone gave us 6x more engagement in recent tests.
The best part? This is one of those rare story templates that works whether you're showing your face or not. You can record a walkthrough, use listing photos, or keep it text-only and still make it feel personal and high-value.
We pulled the hook from one of the 1,200 top-performing Instagram creators we track at Listing Leads—and built the rest to help you execute fast.
Use it to spotlight hidden gems, test urgency-driven content, or just stay top of mind with serious buyers.
Not every lead gen post needs to be a market update or a polished Reel.
Sometimes, the best engagement comes from a simple question that gets people talking.
This one came from Jeremy Knight—he posted it to his Facebook page and the comments took off. It’s bold enough to spark reactions, but casual enough to feel like a real conversation starter:
“A client just asked me what [Area]’s most overrated neighborhood is. 😳
I think I know the answer…what do you think?”
It’s light, local, and designed to stir the pot just enough.
Post it on your page. Better yet—drop it in your community Facebook group.You’ll learn what people really think—and keep yourself front and center in the process.
If you want to post a market update that actually gets attention—start here.
This Reel was inspired by Katie Day’s “5 Most Sold Neighborhoods” video, which pulled in over 15,000 views in less than a week.
Why? Because it’s simple, hyperlocal, and answers a question buyers and sellers actually care about:
Where are homes selling right now?
Use this at the end of the month to highlight the top-performing neighborhoods in your city—sales volume, average price, days on market. You can record a quick video breaking it down… or keep it simple and plug the numbers into our faceless template.
Either way, it’s a fast, effective way to stay visible, relevant, and valuable—without needing to over-explain the market.
