Cold Call Script - Absentee Owners

COLD CALL SCRIPT - ABSENTEE PROPERTY OWNERS
=== OPENING ===
(Dial number, wait for answer. Speak with enthusiasm and confidence.)
"Hi! Is this [Property Owner Name]?"
(Wait for confirmation.)
"Perfect! Hi [Name], my name is [Your Name]. I'm calling you today because I'm a real estate investor here in [City/County], and I've been working in your neighborhood and I came across some information about your property at [Property Address]. Do you have a quick minute to talk?"
(Pause for response.)
If YES: Continue to INTRODUCTION
If NO: "No problem at all! I'll make this really quick - just takes about 30 seconds. [Pause] Have you considered selling the property at [Property Address]?"
=== INTRODUCTION ===
(If they say they're busy, acknowledge it.)
"I appreciate you picking up. Real quick - I'm [Your Name], I work with [Your Company], and I buy properties here in [City] from investors, out-of-state owners, and people who just need to move on from their real estate. I'm not a realtor, I'm an actual cash buyer."
(Pause.)
"The reason I'm calling is I've been looking at your property at [Property Address]. We do a lot of business in that neighborhood, and I noticed you own that house. I'm wondering - are you interested in exploring a potential sale at this point?"
=== RAPPORT BUILDING ===
(Listen to their response. Find something to relate to.)
If they seem hesitant:
"I totally understand - most people aren't thinking about selling. That's actually why I'm calling. We work with a lot of people who have properties they're managing from out of state, and they often find it's more of a hassle than it's worth. Does that sound like your situation?"
