6 real estate agents voicemail greetings
“Hi, you've reached [your name] with [Brokerage]. I'm with a client right now. Leave your name, number, and whether you're buying or selling, and I'll call you back within the hour.”
“You've reached [your name]. I'm at a showing and can't pick up. If you're calling about a property, leave the address and your number, and I'll call you right back.”
“Thanks for calling about one of my listings. Leave your name, number and the address you're interested in, and I'll call you back with details and showing times.”
“Hi, it's [your name] with [Brokerage]. If you're thinking about selling, leave your name, number and property address, and I'll call you back to talk about what your home could sell for.”
“You've reached [your name] with [Brokerage]. I'm off for the evening but I check messages. Leave your name, number and what you need, and I'll call you back first thing tomorrow.”
“Hi, it's [your name]. I'm hosting open houses this weekend. Leave your name and number, or text me at this number, and I'll get back to you between showings.”
The catch with any voicemail greeting
Even a great greeting only works if the caller leaves a message, and a lot of callers hang up and try the next business instead. Riley answers those calls live in your business's name, takes the same details these greetings ask for, and emails them to you.
Tips for a real estate agents greeting that works
- Use your own name; buyers want to talk to a person.
- Promise a callback time; speed wins leads in real estate.
- Ask buying or selling up front so you call back prepared.
