Real Estate SMS Marketing for Investors, Wholesalers & Land Flippers
Done-for-you SMS campaigns to motivated sellers. 10K-100K messages per month, full DNC compliance, Smarter Contact + Launch Control managed by experts. Our texters average 3-5% response rates on land campaigns and 2-4% on residential.
Why SMS is the #1 Lead Channel for Real Estate Investors
SMS marketing is the fastest, highest-ROI outreach channel for real estate investors – especially land flippers. A well-run SMS campaign gets 3-5% response rates from motivated sellers. Compare that to direct mail (0.5-1%) or cold email (0.1-0.5%). For land, SMS is often the only channel that consistently reaches out-of-state absentee owners.
But real estate SMS marketing is also the fastest way to burn a phone number, get flagged for TCPA violations, or fry a mailbox. Getting 100,000+ SMS delivered monthly requires proper 10DLC registration, DNC scrubbing, list warmup, response management, and CRM integration. Most investors try to do this in-house and lose 60-80% of deliverability within 90 days.
We manage the entire stack – Smarter Contact for high-volume land campaigns, Launch Control for compliance-heavy residential, BatchLeads for list-pulling and skip tracing, and Followup Boss for lead management. Your team focuses on closing; we handle the SMS machine.
What's Included in Our SMS Marketing Service

Frequently Asked Questions
Standard plan handles 10,000-30,000 SMS/month. High-volume plan (Growth tier and up) supports 50,000-100,000/month. We split volume across multiple sending numbers with proper 10DLC registration to maintain deliverability. Above 100,000/month requires enterprise setup – we quote separately.
Yes, when done correctly. The TCPA governs SMS in the US and requires: (a) prior consent OR proper opt-out handling, (b) 10DLC brand + campaign registration for A2P messages, (c) honoring STOP requests within 30 seconds, (d) DNC list scrubbing. We handle all four. Clients who try to skip these steps get their numbers flagged, lose deliverability, and risk lawsuits.
After the 2-3 week mailbox warmup phase, live sending typically produces first responses in 24-48 hours. First qualified leads (people willing to have a real conversation) in 1-2 weeks. First signed contract usually 30-60 days.
Depends on channel. Land campaigns: 3-5% response rate. Wholesale residential: 2-4%. Reactivation (cold leads from your existing CRM): 4-6%. These are our internal averages across 2M+ SMS. Individual campaigns vary based on list quality, market, and script iteration.
SMS management starts at $800/month for 10K SMS with 1 sending number. Growth tier ($1,200/month) handles 30-50K SMS with multi-number setup. Scale tier ($1,500+/month) for 50-100K SMS + dedicated texter team. Tool subscriptions (Smarter Contact, Launch Control) paid directly by you at wholesale rate.
Ideally yes. We integrate with Followup Boss by default. If you don’t have a CRM, we recommend setting up FUB first (see our Followup Boss Setup service, $1,500-$4,500). SMS without a CRM means responses get lost – you’ll waste 60-70% of leads within the first 30 days.
Yes – this is 80% of our client base. Land campaigns require specialized scripts (different from residential), longer follow-up cycles (60-180 days), and cross-timezone sending management. Our texter team is trained on absentee owner objections and out-of-state seller psychology.
We monitor sender scores daily. If flagging happens, we pause the campaign, investigate (usually DNC issue, message content, or velocity), remediate, and rotate to fresh numbers. All included in management fee. Zero downtime on your end because we always keep backup numbers warmed up.
