Congratulations, client_first_name — Keys Are Yours!
Hi client_first_name,
Congratulations — you're officially a homeowner! As of closing_date, property_address is yours, and I couldn't be more thrilled for you. It was truly a pleasure guiding you through this process.
FIRST THINGS FIRST
There are a few things worth taking care of in the first days and weeks after closing:
• Re-key or replace the exterior door locks — you don't know who has copies of the old keys
• Locate your main water shutoff, electrical panel, and gas shutoff in case of an emergency
• Set up utilities if you haven't already and update your address with the post office, banks, and subscriptions
• Make note of your property tax due dates in your local county — these aren't always intuitive for first-time buyers
HOMESTEAD EXEMPTION
If this is your primary residence, check whether your county offers a homestead exemption — it can reduce your property tax bill and in some states provides additional protections. The deadline varies by jurisdiction, so look into it sooner rather than later.
STAY IN TOUCH
My job doesn't end at closing. If you have questions about your new home, need a contractor recommendation, or are just curious about how the market is moving in your neighborhood, I'm always happy to help. And if you know anyone looking to buy or sell, I'd love the introduction.
Wishing you many happy years in your new home. I'm at me::phone or me::email whenever you need me.
Workflow context
When to use this workflow
Use this workflow after a buyer closes on a property and the agent wants to congratulate them, provide move-in reminders, and keep the relationship warm.
What this replaces
This replaces forgotten post-closing follow-ups, inconsistent client care messages, and manually rewriting the same move-in and referral language.
Why teams standardize this email
Post-closing communication supports client satisfaction, referrals, and repeat business. A workflow helps agents follow up consistently while keeping the message personal.

- Inserts the post-closing follow-up email in Outlook
- Prompts for client name, property address, closing date, phone, and email
- Adds a property-specific subject line
- Keeps the follow-up structure consistent
- Leaves the draft editable for a personal note
