Foreclosures

What is Foreclosures?

Foreclosure is one of the most difficult situations a homeowner can face—but it doesn’t always mean the end of the road. This play helps you show up early with clarity, empathy, and real options—positioning you as a trusted guide when others are silent.

The Right Audience

These are homeowners in distress. They’ve entered the early stages of foreclosure and may feel overwhelmed or embarrassed. They’re not looking for a pitch—they need help, clarity, and someone who will guide them through what’s next.

The Right Message

The number one rule with this play is to not make homeowners feel targeted or believe you are aware of their situation. Position outreach around foreclosures increasing in the area, while reassuring them it isn’t like past crises. Don’t frame it as exploiting hardship—emphasize options, guidance, and a “good neighbor” approach: bad things happen to good people, and you’re here to help if they know anyone who may be affected.

Measuring Success

Track response times, consultation requests, and how early in the foreclosure process conversations begin. Measure how many listings you secure before auction timelines force limited options. Earlier engagement is the best signal of success.
