Lead with days on market, showing-to-offer rate, and listing conversion. That's the language this buyer already reports. If you can't connect your email to leads that go cold between showing and offer because nobody followed up like a human, you're asking them to do the translation work. They won't.

How long should I ask for in a first meeting?

Fifteen to twenty minutes. Thirty is easier for you and harder for them. If the first conversation earns it, you can ask for a longer working session later. Starting small gets more yeses. Name the stall they care about, offer one small next step, and stop before the thread feels like a sequence.

Body

Hi [First Name],

You mentioned [pain]. A short working session is the fastest way to see if we can help.

I'm writing because a price cut, a listing anniversary, or a rate move that changes buyer math. If a live call is overkill, I can send a 6-bullet brief and you can mark it up.

Given this is after a proposal, ask whether the hold is scope, price, timing, or people.

If you want [colleague] on it, feel free to forward this.

Best,

[Your Company]
