Calling owners whose listings expired: when to call, what to say, and how to read the listing history before you dial. These posts explain how expired, canceled and withdrawn statuses differ, how an old expired differs from a fresh one, the objections you will hear, and how to approach a seller whose home has failed to sell twice.
Start with the expired listing script and expired listing objections. Deciding where to spend your call time? Read FSBO vs expired listings. The expired listing prospecting guide covers research and a 30-day follow-up plan.
The history shows two listing periods, two brokerages and three reductions, and the seller picks up with a sentence they have said to forty agents. What two expirations mean, why the third agent’s pitch fails before it starts, the two questions that work, the price conversation the seller has been avoiding for a year, and what a third listing has to look like.

What each pattern suggests, how to hold the hypothesis without saying it, the four things the history reveals, the one thing it never does, and the two lines you must not cross with what you read.
