There’s nothing quite like the excitement of helping a client secure their dream home. One of the best parts? Sending that thrilling text:
"You’re officially under contract!"
It’s a moment filled with joy, relief, and anticipation for what’s to come. Whether you're a buyer, seller, or real estate professional, this message marks a major milestone in the journey toward homeownership. But what comes next? Let’s break it down!
1. What Does "Under Contract" Mean?
When a home is "under contract," it means that the buyer and seller have agreed to terms, but the sale isn't final just yet. There are still important steps to complete, such as inspections, appraisals, and financing approval.
2. Follow-Up Texts to Keep Clients Informed
Keeping communication clear and consistent is key. Here are a few helpful messages you can send along the way:
📌 To Your Buyer:
"Congratulations! You’re officially under contract! 🎉 We’ll keep you updated every step of the way. Next up: scheduling your home inspection. Let me know if you have any questions!"
📌 To Your Seller:
"Great news! Your home is officially under contract! 🏡 We’re moving forward with the next steps, including the buyer’s inspection. I’ll keep you posted on what to expect!"
3. Encouraging Future Clients
One success leads to another! If you’re a real estate agent, sharing these moments on social media or in marketing campaigns can inspire future buyers and sellers. Try something like:
👉 "Another happy client on their way to closing! Who’s next? Let’s make your real estate dreams a reality!"
4. What’s Next?
For buyers and sellers, being under contract is an exciting step, but there’s still work to be done. Your agent will guide you through:
-
Home inspections and negotiations
-
Appraisals and loan approval
-
Final walkthroughs and closing day prep
Before you know it, you’ll be celebrating Closing Day with the keys to your new home! 🏡✨
