The Home Buyers Playbook

Sellers get a reply overnight.

Sellers write in, and the first answer usually wins. Offers wait for you. Nothing is sent.

How it helps

The overnight lead already has a reply and a row.

A reply and a row

A new lead gets a reply that says the address back and asks the one question that moves it, plus a row, a folder, and a note to the team. It never quotes a number.

Follow-ups and offers

Each morning, rows you have priced get an offer email with your terms. Everyone else who went quiet gets a short chase. Anyone who already replied is left alone.

Closing documents filed

A document that arrives is saved into that property's folder and ticked off your checklist. When the closing is close, one note asks for whatever is still blank.

What's included

Five tasks

Cash home buyers and small buying shops, where the seller who writes in goes to whoever answers first.

Lead replies and a row on your sheet

A reply with the address, a row on the lead sheet, a folder, and a note to the team. Never a price.

Lead chases and offer emails

Rows you have priced get an offer. Quiet leads get a chase. Anyone who already replied is left alone.

Closing documents saved and chased

Documents saved into that property's folder and ticked off the checklist. Close to closing, one note for what's still missing.

Morning email brief

Weekday mornings, the handful of sellers and title companies that actually need you.

Spending reconciliation

Once a week, bank spending copied onto the sheet that is supposed to track it.

What happened

What a run looks like.

After the preview run, Faber leaves a plain-English record of what it read and what it prepared. Every offer is still sitting for you.

WednesdayHome Buyers
  1. Read 7 new messages, 2 of them from the website form.
  2. Drafted 2 replies with the property looked up, and put both on the lead sheet with a folder each.
  3. Posted those 2 to the team.
  4. Drafted 1 offer from a number already on the sheet, and 3 chases for leads that went quiet.
  5. Saved a title report into 14 Oak Street's folder and ticked that line off.
  6. Sent the morning brief at 7am: 4 things that needed you.

Good fit when

The first answer usually wins.

Leads arrive by email or a website form, not from a portal you already pay to work.

The same handful of questions come up every time, and the property can be looked up.

You write offers yourself, onto a sheet, and nothing should quote a number you did not put there.

Closing is a checklist of documents, and most of them arrive as attachments.

Setting it up

Connect the shared apps once.

One set of connections

All five use the same mailbox. New leads, follow-ups and closing docs also use your lead sheet and a folder per property. The morning brief uses the calendar. Spending uses the bank.

Keep the ones you want

Every task has a checkbox and they all start ticked. Unticking one drops it, and drops whatever it was the only task that needed.

One preview to read

They run a preview on your real work with every action held back. You read what they would have done before any of it is real.

What it costs

Setting all five up is free. Running them is what counts.

You install all five and read all five preview runs whatever plan you are on. What your plan limits is how many run on their own afterwards.

They all run free for 14 days, then they stop until you upgrade.

Pro is $20 a month and runs five at a time, so this playbook is the size of Pro.
