Transaction Coordinator Email & SMS Templates
Hey Transaction Coordinators! 👋
Tired of retyping the same emails, reminders, and status updates day in and day out? Wish your clients would actually read your messages and hit their deadlines without chasing them? You’re in the right place.
Below you’ll find 30 free, customizable email & SMS templates that cover every phase of a real estate transaction—from agent outreach and vendor intros to buyer updates and seller check-ins. Plus, you’ll learn exactly why templates and CRM merge-fields are your secret weapons for saving time, reducing errors, and delivering a consistently professional experience every time.
Why Templates & Merge-Fields Matter
- Work 10× Faster — Stop typing the same content. With templates, you draft once and reuse forever.
- Stay Consistent — One approved message for every scenario means no typos, no mixed-up dates, and no missing info.
- Personalize at Scale — Merge-fields like
[AgentName]
,[ClientName]
,[PropertyAddress]
, and[Date]
automatically insert the right details for each recipient. It feels 1:1, even when you’re sending dozens of messages. - Reduce Follow-Ups — Clear, complete communication up-front means fewer “Did you get this?” pings and more on-time responses.
- Look Like a Pro — Branded, polished templates reinforce your expertise and build trust with agents, buyers, sellers, and vendors.
Once you import these into your DocJacket (or any CRM), simply map your merge-fields in Settings, pick a template, and hit send—or even better—set up an automation rule (“Send ‘Inspection Reminder’ 2 days before [InspectionDate]”) and let your system do it for you.
