P.S. There is special financing on this property if you are hesitant to put in a bid or you’re unsure how you will cover the downpayment. Just ask me!
DAY 2
9:50am
Send SMS: Just checking in in case you missed the messages yesterday or forgot. I’d love to give you a private tour of the property from the open house last week. There’s so much more to this property than meets the eye!
10:12am
Send email: An open house is a great way to check out a property on your own, but it does limit you from discovering what makes a property so special. This property has some unique features that really make it stand out from anything else you could buy. Let me give you a private guided tour of the property and show you some things you might have missed when you attended the open house. I’m certain you will really enjoy these features, considering our brief conversation at the open house and what you’re looking for.
Feel free to contact me anytime to set up another tour of the property!

DAY 3
9:30am
Send SMS: Did you know that the owner is eager to sell? That’s why there have been so many open houses for this property. Sometimes this is the best way to get a property for less!
10am
Send email: The owner of this property is eager to sell. While the asking price might seem a little steep, the owner is willing to cut a bargain to sell quickly. It doesn’t hurt to put in an offer and see how low the owner is willing to go!
In fact, this bargaining might include the cost of a home inspection, replacement of outdated major appliances, inclusion of kitchen and laundry appliances, etc.. If you are eager to get a “fully loaded” house to reduce headaches associated with buying appliances, you might want to consider making an offer here.
Contact me to place a bid. If you need to see the property again, I can help!

DAY 5
7:45am
Send SMS: Hello! It’s been a few days. Just wondering if you’re still interested in that property located at 123 Anywhere St. The owner has received a couple offers, but was wondering if there were any other offers out there.
8am
Send email: Hello (Client)! The owner of 123 Anywhere St. has received a couple of offers. However, I said there might be one or two other interested parties. Are you still interested, or should I let the owner know that the only offers he/she has are the ones on hand?
At this time, you would have to counter with something better than the other buyers have given. Please contact me to find out where the bidding range currently sits.
Thanks again for signing up for our messages and alerts.
