Here's My Motivated Seller VOICEMAIL Script
Need a motivated seller voicemail script?
Time to give stuff away again! And golly, you guys just can't get enough, can you? 🙂
So far we've let you steal:
- Our letter of intent
- Our burned house letter
- Our option agreement
- Our motivated seller postcard
- 47 MLS keywords for REI
- A motivated seller phone script
And now here we are, piles of raving comments later, and you still want more!
No problemo.
I totally get it… I've been there, and always appreciate finding an “easy button” or shortcut myself. If it'll save me (i) time, (ii) pain or (iii) the trial-and-error of making or finding it myself, then I'm in.
Which brings me to—an interesting (and kinda hilarious) question from Tim D. I saw recently in response to one of my “Swipe & Deploy” shares. Choose whichever flavor you like…
Ok, I just watched (and took very careful notes during) your seller initial call script video. I have all the answers I need except for one…
What is the recorded message that the seller listens/responds to when s/he calls the number on your postcard?
Is it an interactive automated service, or just a “please provide the following information and someone will contact you shortly” kind of thing? I'm referring to your Vumber number greeting/interaction with the seller during their first ever reach out to you via your postcard. Am I making sense? I have pneumonia so I'm a bit hazy… 😛

Also, during your script video, you stated that your postcard mentions that the seller's initial call will only be answered by an automated service, but on the “Here's one of Our Favorite Postcards” screenshot, the actual verbage is, “Call [this number] and I'll be happy to talk with you. If I'm out, please leave a message and I will call you shortly.” [no mention as to why you'd call anybody “shortly”, but that's prolly not the hill i wanna die on right now].
Is there another postcard to which you were referring in the script video that DOES say that the seller will NOT talk to a real person at first? I'm just a little bit confused about the discrepancy there. But, like I said, I am battling pneumonia so i'm prolly not braining well today. Hard for me to know really.
Wow – I just read what I typed and even I can't make sense of the prolix drivel. However, I'm in no shape to attempt anything better so give it the old college try and let me know what you make of it. I'm expecting an entertaining, yet informative response, but I would certainly understand a visit from a cpl of guys wearing white lab coats driving an unremarkable, windowless van :/
PS. I'm super old, but you guys are my kind of ppl, regardless!
PPS. Could be the drugs.

Dear Timbo,
You, sir, are indeed one of our kind of people. Know that. 🙂
To your question…
YES. I'm happy to also share my ‘we buy houses' voicemail script with you…a time-tested, proven motivated seller voicemail script I crafted and fine-tuned for 18+ years now.
And also to walk you through some of the nuances and Jedi mind tricks inside…and how it solidly prescreens & elegantly sets the stage for having solid conversations with the right people.
ALSO also, to answer the glaring question: Should you even have seller calls handled by voicemail rather than live answered? (my opinion and thoughts on this may surprise you).
Check Out My Motivated Seller Voicemail Script…
Video Transcription:
JP Moses: Hey guys, JP here, just driving through the neighborhoods and I got an interesting email recently that I think is especially interesting, not just because of the question that was asked, but the question under the question. Let me tell you what I mean. So almost every investor actively buying and selling properties these days is looking for the best, most effective, kind of the path of least resistance to get motivated sellers calling them about their distressed properties or distressed situations. Right? So with everything from letters to postcards to bandit signs to billboards, the aim is to get the right people's attention and to get them to call, but when they call, should you answer the phone live you or someone on your team or should it go to a well crafted voicemail to prescreen them first? Interesting question and I've actually changed over the years and how I've handled that for a specific reason. Let's talk about that.
Hey, what's up, awesome people? Welcome back. So the question is, should you answer the phone live in person when motivated sellers call or should you instead use a strategic well crafted voicemail to screen them first? Well, as you might guess, there's different schools of thought on this one and really neither of them are wrong. They're just different from each other. Investors across the board nationwide are successful using one model or the other. On the one hand live answering the phone when sellers call always outperforms in conversation quantity. Meaning more conversations with more people, but also unfortunately more isn't always better, right? You're also wasting a lot of time with curious tire kickers who got no intent of ever letting go of their property at a price that's going to make sense to you, but on the other hand, advertising a 24 hour voice message with a carefully crafted message designed to number one prescreen and filter out the tire kickers.
And number two, set the stage for a productive conversation with the right people. Well, that's another story… in my experience we found in our business that offering the 24-hour recorded voice message is more favorable. Number one, it gets us more calls from people who might be motivated but really aren't ready to kind of field that pressure of a live conversation or make the commitment of talking to somebody in person unless they can figure out if you're not really a scam. And number two, it gives us a perfect platform to set the stage as a real friendly human being. It lets us better define and refine really who is and isn't a good fit for selling their property to us in a friendly, nonthreatening way. So basically using a 24 hour voice message like this, you may end up actually speaking with fewer people versus live answering, but I think you'll probably experience like we do a higher quality of conversation more often than not.
Yes, it draws out the curiosity seekers and then it filters them out before you waste your time on the phone with them. So for us it moves the ball forward with a much higher ratio of the right people. Even if we're actually speaking with fewer people by comparison, but how do you do that effectively? Well, good news in my 18 years in the game now I think I've got it down pretty solid. A finely tuned voicemail script you're looking at right here for seller calls. That's part art and part social science. I think it sets the stage for people and filters out tire kickers, sets the ball beautifully for us to then pass it over for a proper conversation. So I want to walk you through my script and I want to walk you through the 24 hour script for absentee owners in this video.
Now I should say we use basically the same script for other types of leads as well. Probates, Craigslist leads just a little tweaking to make it more contextually relevant to the type of lead, but not a massive overhaul or anything like that. But first I want to let you listen to my actual voicemail and my actual voice. When people call and sellers call, this is literally what they hear. I want you to hear how it doesn't sound like I'm reading a script. You know, it just sounds natural. There's kind of an art to reading a script and it sounding like you're not reading a script, so let me just play it for you so you can hear how it sounds and then I want to walk you through the script a little bit just so you understand some of the subtle nuances that we've baked into this as a starting point for crafting your own version of this script. So let's listen in.
Voicemail: [You can listen to the above video to hear my actual voicemail, and you can also snag the scrip verbatim by simply leaving us a comment below, tell us how you feel about it. 🙂 ]
JP Moses: Alright, so there you go. Let me walk you through some of the nuances that I think make this a strong script and uh, some of many things have been tweaked over the years since I first wrote it. You may have noticed some of the purple when I passed the script along to you as a starting point for your own version of it. It will not have the purple, but I just made that before I started making this video. So I remembered that these are some of the things that I want to point out. All right? So what you may have already noticed when you listened to that recording as compared to the script, is there's a couple of minor tweaks that I made on the fly as I was recording the script because I just, when I encountered it, it didn't sound quite as natural as it would normally sound in me speaking just off the top of my head.
So, I added a, you, uh, your, uh, just a pause or maybe a little chuckle in here or there just to make it sound organic. So right off the top, if we've already spoken about your house and you just need to leave a message, press pound now and leave a message after the tone. So that obviously has a practical use because if sellers call back because that's the only number that they have, maybe the second or third time, I don't want to have to make them endure the entire message before they leave us a message. And that is actually how Vumber works.
By the way, pro tip: I use Vumber, Vumeber.com for this service. And as you can see from the pricing is very reasonable. $10 a month gets you to local phone numbers in your area and you can use up to 500 minutes on those two numbers, three cents for each additional minute.
And I think if you just want to add like let's say you want three numbers instead of four, because that's the next pricing point is four numbers instead of two. You can add a number at any of these levels for just $4 a month. So if regardless of which level of Vumber you have and you just want an extra number over and above what your account allows for bucks gets you a free number or get you a $4 number, all right, back to the script. So that's the way Vumber works. You can press pound and it skips the rest of the message and goes right to the beep.
Now moving into the second paragraph, me and my wife and my partner James, our local Memphians, there's a reason that I refer to my wife. No, she's not involved in our house buying business actively.
At least I want people to associate me as a family man and us as real humans and locals to the area. It's increasingly popular for out of town investors to put advertisements in various areas. We even do it ourselves in different areas. If we've learned anything from our friend, Justin Wilmot at the 10 Hour Wholesaler, you don't have to be local to your area to wholesale houses, but in this specific situation with this script, I am local to Memphis and this was a script for advertising in our local area. So I want to emphasize the localness and the family connection just so I can start the possibility of them feeling warm and fuzzy and like I'm a real human, not just a business. I also gloss over quickly our experience of many years that may or may not apply to you, but it's certainly worth a spotlight and passing if it is the case. In conversations like this, I like to frame us as a solution to house problems.
That's a common word that I use. And it includes really anything that involves, uh, a junky house, just a house that they inherited, no matter the condition, a house problem could mean the house itself or the situation. So I let the seller know we specialize in hard to sell homes and I go through a laundry list of things that that might include and yes, we can help. I want them to begin connecting me as somebody that helps people in their mind.
Moving on. I asked them to tell us not just about their house in their message, but their situation. I invite them to at least open the door and describing whether or not this is an inherited property or a road old rental property or what have you. Obviously they can choose whether they want to include that at all or how much they want to say about it, but at least asking for it makes sense to me.
I offered them a fair cash offer in a timely fashion and then that's a major benefit, a quick easy sale, you know, when dealing with motivated sellers in tough situations, that's really what they're looking for. You may deal with some people sometimes who are just focused exclusively on the price, but I find more often than not, sellers just want a quick, easy solution to the problem that they're in, which means a quick, easy sale and which is why I say you can avoid all the hassles typically that come along with selling your house through an agent or on your own.
Now, here's where the embedded commands begin. I don't know if you've ever heard of Neurolinguistic Programming, NLP. I'm no Ninja at it, but I've learned a little bit about it through the years and if you can embed commands that aren't direct commands, not explicit, I'm commanding you to do this, but a subtle statement of a thing that embeds as a command to your subconscious mind, it can have an influencing effect on the other person.
So, some of the embedded commands that are in here, I made them purple but are also in all caps. Just to make sure I remember to emphasize it a little bit as I'm talking, so just to give you an idea, Mr. Seller, here's how I make it easy and convenient when you sell your house to me.
First, I'd like to pay all your closing costs. When you sell your property. To me, this will save you thousands of dollars because normally when you sell your home, I'm just trying to speak to their subconscious mind, sell your property, sell your home, sell your house to me, sell your house to me. It's not overt to them, but I'm being intentional about not just saying that, but subtly emphasizing those embedded commands.
Again, “sell to me”, “feel comfortable”. I want their subconscious to hear me say, speaking of which, I found a lot of sellers who reached out to us are just wondering when we're going to try and pull the wool over their eyes or whether the up to something scammy, so I like to just drop in indications that we understand that they're a little nervous about this and the whole transaction is going to be handled by a licensed attorney and a local title company, no kitchen table closings, so everything is being done above board.
Now, towards the end, I want to be sure and set the expectation that I'm probably not going to be in a position to pay you full market value for your property and I explained why. However, I can pay a fair price based on the condition and the situation you have at hand.
So bottom line, I come up with a fair value. If my fair offer is acceptable to you. Again, speaking to their subconscious mind. I'm only a fair guy and all I'm going to do is treat them fairly. You'll subconscious mind get cash in two to four weeks or less, and here please know. Again, I'm just speaking to their nervousness. Nobody's going to try to sell you anything. Rest assured. I'm not interested in convincing you of doing anything. I'm just a local guy, friendly guy, and I'm looking to find a few properties.
Wrap up with a call to action, an explicit call to action again speaking to their subconscious mind. So here's what you have to do next. Take a moment, leave me a message with your name, phone number twice, including your area code, the address of the property you're thinking of selling, your asking price. A lot of people don't like to include that because they don't want the seller fixating on a price. I like to know what's on their mind if they even have a starting point. You noticed, I don't say what you're asking, what, what you need to get for the property, because I'm probably not going to be able to offer them their asking price, but I'd like to know what, if anything, they have in mind.
Once upon a time I was calling sellers back, I handed it off to my partner James in 2015, so I set the stage for that interaction so they don't expect to hear from my voice as the first call back by saying either I or my partner James, we'll call you back to discuss it with you. And then again, warm and fuzzy. You can decide what's best for you. Please share as many details about the property you would like to sell in your situation as you can.
Alright, so that's it. I'm done walking through the nuances of the script. I hopefully highlighted some of them that I think were tricky to discover and are important and subtle, but help accomplish a connection and a friendly vibe and at least a baseline. I'm just an average local guy, not some big fancy business. Uh, and uh, more likable, trustable posture.
All right guys. So there you go. That's my voicemail message that I've crafted carefully over the last 18 years in the game. You need to use this as a starting point only for creating your own version of this. And then I'd really like to hear from you what you think about this and how it works for you. Tell me a comment below. Just talk to me. Tell me how this strikes you. Is there anything about the script that you like or don't like especially? I'm open-minded… talk to me. Thanks guys. Keep it awesome. Happy investing. JP Out.

great script thanks again. Will use it.
Very well written voicemail script and I will use in my business right away.
Love your script! Can’t wait to try it out!
Thanks for sharing!

Love the script and will be using it. Can’t wait to see how it works.
Great script. Thanks for sharing. Excited to try it.
This script is great! It sounds completely “no pressure” which is comforting. Thanks guys!
You. Are. Welcome.
Enjoy!

Thank You Sir!
Thank you
Excellent script
this is terrific, Thanks I’m getting to work
I’ve heard of speaking to someones sub conscience before but didn’t know how to do it. THANK YOU! AWESOME!
Love the tip about adding your wife into the mix. Going to use this in my upcoming marketing campaign.
Hey Kurt, let us know how it works out for you.

great script, hopefully this works fro coldcalleveryone
Thanks! This fills in a piece that I was missing
This is a great resource!. I am following
Great script , cant wait to put it to work !
Good site; simple to use.
I think I like it. You explain the key points of your message. My first thought that is was lengthy, maybe a bit rambling, but I see where you want to create a casual feel of the message and have the opportunity to inject the multiple subliminal message of “sell your house to me”.
Thanks for sharing, can’t wait to put it to use.
Excellent script. Look forward to implementing today
Great
Thanks for this great resource, can’t wait to use it..
Great script I like it.
Thanks for sharing this script. I’ve been using a couple rotating scripts for my inbound calls currently. Excited to see if this will help up my percentages of those calling in and not leaving a voicemail.
Hey Eric, let us know how it works out for ya.
– Patrick
I liked the conversational tone, the NLP, the encouragement to talk about the house and their situation, telling them the close will be with an attorney, and stressing for them to speak everything clearly and leave their phone number twice.
great training video. easy to implement into my seller system.
You must have been reading my mind when you posted this. I’m just starting my wholesaling business and was looking for something like this as I’m not always available to answer calls (still dealing with a 9-5). I’m not one, as others have said, to be patient enough to sit through a long message. However, I do like what you’ve put together here. It’s honest, down-to-earth and you made me feel like I could easily do business with you! I would love to try this script out as a complete newbie to see how it works! Thank you for sharing!
Glad we could help, Chris!
Love it!! a bit lengthy, but an awesome start.
Very clever and well put together. Thanks for sharing it!
Personally, I’m an impatient person and always prefer to skip through lengthy messages. I’m the type who refuses to follow instructions and instead will keep pushing “0” until I get a live person on the phone. I do, however, like your script and will test it out on one of my tracking numbers to compare results since my current results aren’t that great. Will let you guys know. Thanks for sharing! 🙂
Solid feedback, Theresa. And I’m actually the same type of person you are! Which is a big reason why, right at the start, I give them an easy way to skip/opt-out of the message if they really want to. Thanks for your constructive input! 🙂
Hello,
I’m not an absolute nut about this, but maybe consider this suggestion. Okay, you are “local”, but grammar does go a long way. “Me and my wife and my partner James” might come out better as “I, my wife and my partner James are local….” Or, “My wife, my partner James and I are local….”
Please do not feel put out. I am just saying that out of what I heard, that stood out to me and even though you may be a local resident, how you phrase things can affect the overall thought process of a possible seller.
Other then that, well thought out.
@Keven—THANK YOU for some constructive feedback. And I totally get you. Some people will probably notice a slight misuse of grammar just like you did, and kinda get stuck on it. My spidey sense tells me that’s a vast minority. I think the vast majority of folks will connect *more* with something/someone who just uses common ways people say things, and phrases based on what just “feels right” on the fly, versus precisely grammatically correct.
For that reason, I INTENTIONALLY don’t grammar good sometimes (see what I did there? 😉 ) Because I want to disarm people with my seemingly unpolished “just another guy” approach. And I have a feeling (again, just my spidey sense really) that any negative impact of not making things always technically 100% grammatically accurate is probably marginal, and far outweighed by the disarming charm I try to infuse instead. Does that make sense?
Again, I’m always super grateful to get helpful feedback like you gave. So thanks!
I love the idea of having them contact you. Nothing beats speaking to someone who is calling because they want what you have to offer – instead of you calling someone out of the blue and hoping to sway them to think the way you do and then want what you have. I can’t wait to put it into practice! Also, anything you want to put ou there that will make life and my REI business easier, I will gladly take with a smile and wholehearted thank you! Please keep gems like this coming! You’re the best!
Thanks,
Lori
You’re so welcome, Lori! (and warm-fuzzies received 🙂 )
This is huge because having a voicemail has always bee frowned upon but your insight makes perfect since especially because you have a call to action.
Thanks, Cristian! (call-to-action successful 😉 )
THe script is dope.
Awesome! Thanks Ken!
Loved it. I plan to test it out immediately
excellent!
Thanks for sharing your voicemail message and strategy/thought process behind it! I agree that being more personable or human is better and I think it definitely adds to building rapport with sellers. I’d like to give this type of voicemail script a shot.
Sweet, Scott! Let me know how it goes if/when you give it a shot!
I appreciate your sharing the script. No doubt it is better than Not answering, or a messy message.
** If you would care to.. go ahead and fill my number [edited] Into that “Numbers to call if they want, to talk, someone live. I will glean the Callers down to some good solid leads.
Is “Vumber” Local or National?
I just wondered if “Press the # Button” is a real function… Otherwise watch Seinfeld- Kramer “The Movie Phone” Episode..
I enjoyed your explanation, of the points. Clearly, You are a professional and I would believe every word of it, I were a caller
“Your sense or “Urgency” Pitch is good.. I would recommend blending the word : “NOW” or as used ” What You need to do “NEXT”… It is a less threatening word, and sounds more like an instruction to be helpful.
You cover it in the NLP– I am No Ninja either.
I just noticed How close by you guys are. I have been lurking, and trying out some of your pitches and products. You are among my favorites.
I would Love to come out and film a day of : Door Knock House Cold-Calls!! It’d Make a Great Video too!
You have us ( Husband and Wife Team here too with a team of 2 partners..) I always use their ” First Names”
Have you ever tried adding: ” When /After We/I personally visit you, You will get a fair idea of what your home is worth in the current market, and That is no doubt better than not knowing…” Of course I am more accustomed to the Cold-Call and having Live interaction, and having a need to “Close”… I guess that is why We have always been top-dogs Sales, no matter the Product!!
Keep up the Awesome work.. You guys are Awesome. We are Fans!!!
Though I commented we are crafting our message to be much closer to yours.. It needed revisions. We run 4 Companies through that Phone Number.. So Vumber might be a nice addition.. What are your thoughts on VA’s Virtual Assistants??
We currently Use Google Voice which is Free.. But has drawbacks..
Thanks Guys_
Your Fans at D-Build
Reverend RJ, Denise Kenny and Doctor Curt
Wowee! D-Build has a Reverend AND a Doctor…you guys are FANCY. 🙂 A few quickies backatcha:
– Yes, Vumber is national.
– Yes, the # button reference really works (and love your Seinfeld reference btw)
– “You are among my favorites.” <--THANK YOU! 🙂 - thanks for your thoughtful feedback, suggestions and ideas. I love when people add to the discussion whenever I share anything like this!
Thanks, Can’t wait to see how this works for me.
You’ve always been very generous in sharing your knowledge (and it helps) and this is no exception.
Hey Scott, glad to hear you’re enjoying the knowledge and resources we’re sharing.
– Patrick
Sounds great. going to give it a try.
Love the script, definitely will use in my business
That’s great, Adam! Let us know how it works for you.
I think this is a solid theory and it looks like it works. A call back beats the sh*t out of a cold call
That’s right. And, it enables you to screen out callers who are
just testing the water. Enjoy the script!
Thank you very much. Another awesome tool. Keep sharing great information.
Glad you like, Greg! Hope that you will find it useful.
Thank you so much.
At first I thought it was a little lengthy, but if a seller listens until the end, chances are probably better that they will engage.
Your tone sounds very sincere!
Thanks for the help.
Tim
Thanks for the feedback. Hope it proves successful for you too!
Im going to use this script
That was really good. I appreciate the ease of the script and how you presented it. In the past, I over-thought the whole process. This video reminded me to keep it simple and just talk
Thank you for that information. I’m going to use that and let you know how it goes!
Great info on the Seller Call Back Script. Love it!
This is pure awesomeness!!
Thanks for sharing your script JP. It gives me ideas for giving my letters a more “down homesy” touch.
That was really good. It seems a little long, but understand what you are trying to do. Have you used a shorter one? Like I said, it seems really long. Do you get many hang ups from not listening to it all?
Sure, you’ll definitely get some hang ups… but that helps qualify the most motivated leads.
– Patrick
just awesome!
Great script. Thks!
Thanks for sharing, great letter
You’re welcome, Gail. Glad you like it and hope that
you will be able to use it!
Great script for weeding out curious tire kickering sellers. But many gurus now say times have changed with buyers and renters and that they expect an instant response or they will just move on to the next house. Are you using this type of screening script for buyers/renters?
looking forward to using the scripts thanks
jeff
Great script… can’t wait to try it out! Thank you!
Thanks, Mike! Let us know how it goes for you.
Thanks for the script!
Great content!
I thought the way the script is constructed especially with the included NLP makes for a very comforting message that will help put the potential seller at ease.
Great motivated sellers script. Thanks for offering it for free. Would love to also see a script for buyers.
Solid suggestion, Patricia—thanks!
Hello Awesomerei.com, my name is Ron Bridges to let you know that I am grateful for your systems and products thank you kindly.
R. Bridges
Hey Ron, You’re welcome! Glad you find them useful!
I’m glad I came across this awesome script. This will be a huge time saver and help weed out the non deals right out the gate! Thank you for always sharing such valuable content!
@Todd—super glad it’ll be a time saver for you. That’s what I was aiming for. 🙂 And yes, it’s been killer for weeding out the tire kickers and time wasters.
Honestly I thought man this is a long voicemail. Lol. You make a point if you want motivated sellers they will stay and listen others will most likely hang up or just press pound and get it over with.
@Fredrick—a solid point. I definitely want it to screen out people who aren’t motivated or curious enough to listen…and that’s also why I gave them an easy way to skip the whole message right at the start, for anyone who just wants to leave a message without enduring my soliloquy. 🙂 Thanks for the candid feedback, Fred!
Excellent info!
Awesome!!
Thank you so much for sharing! I’m hoping to get into investing and your resources are invaluable.
Great Script – Thanks – Sounds like it definitely weeds out the ‘less than serious’ sellers
Glad you found it useful, George!
Thank you. Would love to see anything to help with private money.
I appreciate the awesome information. I think I could benefit greatly from this script. Thank you for sharing it.
You’re welcome, Clarence. Enjoy!
– Patrick
I like the sellers script , it makes it easier to make my own script to each individual ,according to their needs or desire.
Delores Dacres
Your script is much more refined than my shoot from the hip plan. I look forward to implementing your ideas, it can’t help but make me more successful…
Thanks for sharing!
Great practical materials we can use! You guys are AWESOME, THANK YOU!
Really looking forward to putting this tool to work.
Well crafted, will give me more confidence in what my callers hear. Thank you!
I think it was awesome!!!
I think the script gives me a roadmap for which I may tweak, but at least I have a starting point. I’m looking forward to taking action
Hey Andre, we definitely recommend to make it your own and customize if that makes sense for your biz.
– Patrick
Awesome!
It sounds great JP. Then how vumber.com works with my regular phone company? Also how often would I have to re-adapt my voicemail?
@Livin – not totally sure of your question here. But vumber is a services that lets you (i) choose a local number and add it to your account, (ii) setup a custom sequence you want callers to experience (i.e. voicemail, route to an actual phone, or some combination of that), and (iii) receive and process voice messages. You don’t have to interact with your regular phone company at all to use Vumber, but can access everything online through your account after you create and set one up.
In terms of re-adapting your voicemail, again, not sure what you mean. I just reserve a new vumber number for each specific type of lead source (probate leads, absentee owners, bandit signs, etc.) and usually re-create a separate, slightly tweaked version of the voicemail message for each lead type (to make it a little more contextually relevant)…then use the various vumber numbers in whatever marketing tactic I’m deploying. Does that make sense?
Thanks for The Script! I am looking forward to put this into practice. I’ll provide feedback as soon as I can. Thanks JP!
Hey Dave, thanks for offering to give us feedback on how it works out for you. Talk soon.
– Patrick

This makes cold calling so much easier! I will be putting this script to use.
I think its awesome
Well thought out , sensitive and honest.
Shoot made me think about selling my house
I think its a homerun out the park script
Nice! I’d say that’s the sign of a good script 🙂

Really thank you for this useful tool I think this will come in handy especially for beginners like myself
Thanks for sharing. I have a professional voicemail recording but like the personal touch. Might have to test.
Thanks for sharing – interesting thought on voicemail. I think i would add something so that they can switch to leave a vm at any time without having to listen to the whole thing. A little too long for people who may be impatient or in a hurry.
Wow, great info! Being I’m a part time investor this will work great for me. Also I like the way the voicemail was crafted and presented. Can’t wait to use it. Thanks for all that you do.
Brian, great to have you as part of the community here. Let us know how the script works out for you.

Thank you as usual great information I always appreciate your help and opinions
Great script, ill be trying it out asap
Thank you
I love this idea and the way you can automate the process. How much of the leads that go to the voicemail do you actually convert?
Hey Kevin, it’s gonna be different for everyone depending on the quality of leads you having coming in. Track your own metrics and then you have a baseline for what to test against.

Looking forward to using it!
Looking forward to using this!
Let us know how it works out for ya, Kirk.

Your motivated seller voicemail script is awesome. (No pun intended) Thanks for taking the time to explain in detail.
You’re welcome, George!
(pun received. and appreciated.)
Great script. I actually use something like this in my business. However I like how you say that you are local and that you have a partner. Awesome will start using this right away!
So glad you find it useful, to improve on something you are already doing. Way to go!
very well put script. I’m going to be using this on my voicemail
Thank you !
Sweet, glad you like it.
