5 Essentials + HOME Framework

How to Use This Template

Follow these steps to get the best results. Each step maps to proven frameworks taught in AI Acceleration.

Define the Hero

HOME Framework - H (Hero)

Tell AI what kind of agent voice to use. A first-time buyer advocate sounds different from a luxury relocation specialist. The role shapes everything—word choice, level of explanation, and how much hand-holding the email provides.

Set the Outcome

HOME Framework - O (Outcome)

Specify the email type and length. A post-showing recap needs bullet points and clear next steps. An offer strategy email needs data and confidence. Name the format so AI structures it correctly.

Load the Materials

HOME Framework - M (Materials)

Fill in the client context AND the situation details. The emotional temperature field is the most important—it tells AI whether to lead with reassurance, excitement, or calm analysis. AI cannot read the room unless you describe the room.

Execute with Constraints

HOME Framework - E (Execute)

Set tone, length, and exclusions. Include your recommendation so AI can weave your professional opinion into the email naturally rather than burying it or overstating it.

OODA Verify

OODA Loop

Read it as if you're the buyer. Does it address their emotional state? Does it include a clear next step? Does it sound like you or like a robot? Adjust and resend through AI if needed.

Before & After

Filled Example

Template with Your Details

You are a buyer's agent specializing in relocation clients, working in the Nashville metro area.

Write a post-showing recap email to my buyer client.

Client Context:
- Client Name: Sarah and Marcus
- Buyer Type: Relocating from Chicago, first time buying in Tennessee
- Budget: $500,000-$600,000
- Must-Haves: 4 bedrooms, good schools, under 30 min commute to downtown Nashville
- Deal-Breakers: no flood zone, no septic (they've never dealt with one)
- Timeline: Need to close before school starts August 5
- Emotional Temperature: Cautiously optimistic after today's showings but overwhelmed comparing neighborhoods they don't know yet

Property/Situation Details:
- What Happened: Toured 4 homes today in Nolensville and Mount Juliet
- Key Details: 102 Cedar Bluff (Nolensville, $565K, 4BR/3BA, 2022 build) was their clear favorite. 788 Stonewater (Mt Juliet, $519K, 4BR/2.5BA) was solid but they weren't excited. The other two were ruled out.
- My Recommendation: Write on Cedar Bluff this week—it's been on market 6 days and will get competing offers by next weekend.

Tone: Warm but direct, like a trusted advisor not a salesperson
Length: 4 short paragraphs
Do NOT use: dream home, perfect fit, act fast, you don't want to miss this

AI-Generated Result

Sarah and Marcus, Good day today. Four homes, two neighborhoods you'd never heard of three months ago, and I think we found a real contender. Here's where I'd put things after the tour. 102 Cedar Bluff in Nolensville checked every box on your list: four bedrooms, 2022 build, Williamson County schools, and a 25-minute commute to downtown that doesn't require I-24. No flood zone, public sewer, and the neighborhood has sidewalks—which matters more than people think when you've got kids. At $565K it's mid-range for your budget, which leaves room for the fence and garage shelving Marcus was already planning. 788 Stonewater in Mount Juliet was a fair house at a fair price, but I noticed neither of you walked the backyard twice—and you walked Cedar Bluff's backyard three times. That tells me something. I'd keep Stonewater as a backup but not chase it. My recommendation: let's write on Cedar Bluff this week. It's been on market six days, priced correctly, and Nolensville inventory at this price point moves fast in summer. I'll pull comps tonight and send you a pricing strategy by tomorrow morning so we can talk numbers. Does Wednesday work for a call? — [Your Name]

Frequently Asked Questions

Why include the client's emotional temperature?

Because the same information delivered the wrong way loses clients. A buyer who just lost their third offer needs empathy before data. A buyer who's excited needs you to match their energy while keeping them grounded. The emotional temperature field is the single biggest differentiator between a generic email and one that makes the client feel heard.

Should I use this for every buyer email?

Use it for emails that matter—showing recaps, offer strategies, market updates, and emotional moments like losing a bid. For quick scheduling confirmations or forwarding a document, just type it yourself. The template is for communications where tone and content quality affect whether they stay with you.

Can I combine this with my Context Card?

Absolutely—and that's the ideal setup. Load your Master Context Card first (so AI knows your voice, market expertise, and communication style), then use this template for the specific email. Your Context Card handles WHO you are; this template handles WHAT you need to say.

What if I don't know my recommendation yet?

Leave the recommendation field as 'I want to present the options neutrally and ask for their input.' AI will structure the email as a balanced comparison rather than a directed recommendation. But in most cases, your buyers hired you for your opinion—so give it.
