Buyers are getting younger and younger, and that means they are increasingly preferring email communication rather than phone calls or face-to-face meetings.

So while real estate agents pride themselves on their people skills and in-depth property knowledge, these days it’s just as important to be great at communicating via email. That’s why we created this in-depth guide on how realtors can improve their email communication with Right Inbox in 2024.

5 Top Tips for Email Follow Ups for Realtors

When crafting your next follow up email message, adhere to these top 5 tips as a realtor:

Personalize it – Use their name, occupation, and other personal info.
Keep it short – People don’t want to read a novel these days. Get to the point
Make it relevant – What hobbies or interests can you link into your email?
Focus on them, not you – Want a pro tip? Use the word “you” 5x more than the word “I.”
Always include a call to action – Be straight up and ask for the sale (or contract, or interview)…

With these strategies at your disposal, you’re ready to craft compelling email copy that builds solid relationships with your real estate clients. But, if you like saving time, simply steal these follow up emails for real estate agents below first:

With this in mind, here are 13 of the most useful real estate follow up templates:

1. Listing Feedback Email

Hi [Contact Name],

Just dropping you a note to check whether you were able to access the listing information I sent over [last Monday].

I’d love to get your feedback on the selection of properties I shared. Did any of them catch your eye? Or are they missing important features you’re looking for in your next property? If so, I’d be happy to send over information on some of the other fabulous properties on my books.

As always, I’d be thrilled to book in a meeting with you to view any properties that appeal to you.

Please don’t hesitate to get in touch should you have any questions or feedback on any of the properties.

Many thanks,
