Real Estate Agents: This ChatGPT Prompt Handles Seller Pricing Objections for You
Jul 10, 2025
We’ve all been there.
The comps say one thing.
The seller wants $100K more.
And somehow, you’re the bad guy for bringing reality into the conversation.
What if you had a way to prep that conversation without second-guessing every word — and still keep the seller confident in your guidance?
That’s exactly what this AI prompt helps you do.
π¬ The Problem: Pricing is Emotional
Pricing isn’t just a number — it’s a negotiation between logic and emotion.
Sellers think in terms of:
- What they need
- What their neighbor got
- What Zillow told them
But you’re looking at:
- Current comps
- Days on market
- What will actually attract qualified buyers
At Modern Agent AI, we use AI to help agents navigate these tough moments with more clarity, confidence, and better scripts.
π« What Not to Do in a Pricing Conversation
Here are 3 common script mistakes that ChatGPT helps you avoid:
β Mistake #1: Starting with “The Market Says…”
This immediately feels impersonal and dismissive. Sellers hear it as: “I don’t care what you think.”
β Mistake #2: Leading with Your Opinion, Not Data
“I think we should price it at…” makes it about you, not the buyer landscape.
β Mistake #3: Saying “That’s Too High” with No Bridge
It creates defensiveness instead of a path forward.
The right prompt helps you steer clear of all of this — with language that balances empathy and clarity.
π§ Try This Prompt (Starter Version)
This is one of the 5 prompts featured in our free guide — and it’s a go-to for pricing conversations.
π¬ “Help me write a script for a pricing conversation with a seller. The goal is to guide the conversation with empathy while still setting realistic expectations. Ask me one question at a time to get the context you need. Wait for my answer before moving on.”
Once you drop that into ChatGPT, it will guide you through a sequence like:
- “What price does the seller want to list at?”
- “What price do the comps or market data support?”
- “What’s the tone or relationship like with this seller?”
- “Do they have a specific reason for wanting that price?”
- “Anything you definitely want to say or avoid?”
After that, ChatGPT will generate a custom script — in your tone — that helps you set expectations while keeping the seller engaged.
π£ Why It Works
- You control the tone (not a canned script)
- ChatGPT reflects the relationship dynamics (warm? skeptical?)
- It helps you communicate clearly — not emotionally
No more sitting there thinking:
“How do I say this without sounding like a jerk?”
β¨ Example Output
“I totally understand why you’re hoping for $1.2M — it’s a beautiful home, and you’ve put a lot into it. What we’re seeing right now, though, is that homes priced even $25K above market are sitting. My job is to help you get the best possible outcome — and that starts with positioning this home to attract serious buyers from day one…”
Tailored. Balanced. Professional.
