WhatsApp follow-up templates for real estate agents in Dubai (copy and paste)

In Dubai, the deal moves on WhatsApp. The call opens the door, but the brochure, the floor plan, the viewing time and the payment plan all travel as messages. Agents who write good follow-ups get replies. Agents who send "Hi, just checking in" get left on read.

These are the twelve messages our customers' top reps actually send, cleaned up so you can paste them. Replace the parts in square brackets, keep them short, and send each one at the moment described.

Before you paste anything

Three rules that matter more than the wording:

• One message, one ask. End every message with a single question or a single time. Two questions get zero answers.
• Attach the thing. A follow-up with the floor plan attached beats a follow-up that promises it.
• Send it within ten minutes of the call. The lead is still thinking about you. An hour later they are thinking about dinner.

1. Right after the first call

Hi [Name], it was good to speak just now. As promised, here is the brochure and the floor plan for [Project / Unit]. The 2BR on the [floor] floor is the one I mentioned at AED [price]. Shall I hold a viewing for you on [day] at [time]?

Attach the PDF. Send it before you dial the next lead.

2. When they asked for "the details" and nothing else

Hi [Name], here are the details for [Project]: [2 lines: size, price, handover, payment plan]. The two units that match what you described are [unit A] and [unit B]. Which one would you like me to check availability on?

The question at the end turns a brochure drop into a conversation.

3. The day-after nudge, with something new

Morning [Name]. One thing I didn't mention yesterday: [a fact they care about, e.g. the developer has just released a 60/40 payment plan on this tower / a unit on a higher floor came back today]. Worth a look before Thursday?

Never send a day-after nudge without new information. "Did you see my message?" is a message about you. This one is about them.

4. Confirming a viewing

Hi [Name], confirming our viewing of [Unit] at [Project] on [day] at [time]. Meet at [exact spot, with a map pin]. I'll have the floor plan and the latest price list with me. Reply "yes" and I'll see you there.

Send the map pin as a separate message. Visitors to Dubai get lost; residents do too.

5. The morning of the viewing

Good morning [Name], looking forward to [time] today at [Project]. Parking is [where]. If anything changes, just message me here.

6. They did not show up

Hi [Name], we missed each other at [Project] today. No problem at all. I can do [day] at [time] or [day] at [time]. Which works better?

No guilt, two options, one question.

7. After the viewing

Hi [Name], thanks for coming to [Project] today. Here is the summary you asked for: [unit], AED [price], [payment plan], handover [date]. To hold the unit the developer needs [reservation amount] and a passport copy. Do you want me to send the reservation form?

This is the message that turns viewings into reservations. Send it within the hour, while the lead is still in the car.

8. The price objection

I understand, [Name]. For context, the last three sales in [community] went at AED [X] to [Y] per square foot, and this unit is at AED [Z]. If the budget is firm at AED [their number], I have two options that fit: [option 1] and [option 2]. Shall I send both?

Numbers, then options. Never argue price in prose.

9. Off-plan launch

Hi [Name], [Developer] opens bookings for [Project] on [date]. Units start at AED [price] with a [payment plan]. Based on what you told me, [unit type] on [view] is the one to go for. Shall I put your name down for the launch? No commitment until you see the unit list.

10. Re-engaging a lead who went quiet

Hi [Name], it's [Your name] from [Agency]. We spoke in [month] about [what they wanted]. Two things have changed since: [change 1] and [change 2]. If the plan is still on, I can send what's available now. If not, no problem, just tell me and I'll stop messaging.

Giving them an easy way to say no is what gets the yes.

11. Payment plan question

Here is the payment plan for [Unit] in plain numbers: [10%] on booking (AED [X]), [40%] during construction in [N] instalments of AED [Y], [50%] on handover in [month, year]. DLD fee is [4%] and is [included / separate]. Want me to send a one-page version you can forward?

12. The honest close

[Name], I'll be straight with you: [Unit] is the best fit for what you described and I don't expect it to stay available past [day]. If you want it, I need the reservation form back by [time]. If the timing isn't right, tell me and I'll keep an eye out for the next one.

Timing cheat sheet

Message	When
1, 2	Within 10 minutes of the call
3	Next morning, only with news
4, 5	On booking the viewing, and the morning of
6	Within an hour of the missed slot
7	Within an hour of the viewing
8, 11	The moment the objection comes up
10	After 2 to 3 weeks of silence

Make the templates part of the dialer

The reps who send these consistently are not the most disciplined. They are the ones whose dialer does it for them. In Sellerman Dialer, each template lives in the app with the brochure already attached, so the follow-up goes out in one tap while the next call is dialling, and it is logged against the lead. If you want to see that on your own lead list, book a demo.
