Open house follow-up script after sign-in

Subject line - Thanks for visiting [property address]

Hi [first name], thanks for stopping by the open house at [property address].

Here is the listing link again - [listing link].

You asked about [question]. My answer is [answer]. If you want, I can also send [disclosures/comps/similar homes/offer timing].

Best, [agent name]

That is enough for the first message. The visitor remembers the house. The useful part is answering the question they asked.

If the visitor is not working with an agent and asked for next steps, I would be direct.

Thanks again for visiting [property address]. If you are comparing this home with others, I can send recent comps, disclosures, and a short list of similar homes in [area]. Are you looking in the next 30-60 days, or later?

If the visitor is already working with an agent, I keep the message clean.

Thanks for stopping by [property address]. Here is the listing link again - [listing link]. If you want disclosures or offer details, your agent can reach me through the listing contact information.

That avoids acting like the visitor is your client when they already told you they have representation.

Neighbors often visit because they are curious about pricing. I do not force a buyer script on them.

Thanks for visiting [property address]. A few neighbors asked how this open house compares with recent nearby sales. If you want, I can send a short market update for your street after the weekend.

Text should be shorter and more careful. I would use it only when the visitor expected that kind of follow-up or the brokerage-approved form captured the right consent.

Hi [first name], this is [agent name]. Thanks for visiting [property address]. You asked about [question]. I can send the link here or by email. Reply STOP if you do not want texts from me.

For automated or marketing texts, do not treat a phone number on a sign-in sheet as blanket permission. FCC guidance treats consent and revocation for robocalls and robotexts seriously.

If the follow-up is commercial email, the FTC's CAN-SPAM guide says the message needs accurate sender and routing information, a truthful subject line, a valid physical postal address, and a clear opt-out for future marketing email.

The first one-to-one answer to a visitor's question is usually simple. The risk grows when the lead gets dropped into a campaign. Keep opt-outs and consent context attached to the lead.

I save the property, open house date, visitor type, agent status, question asked, reply sent, and next action.

That record matters more than a clever script. When the lead replies two days later, the agent can see the context instead of searching through notes.
