Real Estate Welcome Email — New Home

A warm welcome-to-the-neighborhood email from a realtor with local highlights, a handoff to utilities, and an open invitation to call.

The prompt

Two ways to build this email in plain language. The fastest is Temway's in-editor assistant — open the chat drawer in the email editor and paste the recipe below. Or connect Claude or ChatGPT via Temway's MCP and paste it there; the agent builds the email step by step. Either way, adapt the copy and colors to your brand.

  • An email is a top-to-bottom stack of blocks — the recipe follows that order.
  • A [layout] step becomes a single image (great for heroes); everything else stays live text and links.
  • Theme the footer to match — the recipe's last step does exactly that.

Want this exact email? Click Use this template below to clone it into your workspace, then ask the in-editor assistant to rebrand it. Over MCP, tell your agent to clone the Temway share -vLEvUOo0HaU4CSVY4rBX and rebrand. For the full model, point an MCP agent at get_conceptemail-structure, layouts-vs-emails, design-recipes.

The welcome email that lands the week a client closes on their new home. No hero art — just a warm note from their agent, a handoff to utilities and local favorites, and an open invitation to call with any question. Built for the long relationship, not the transaction.

Snapshot

  • Goal: mark the closing and orient the new homeowner to their first weeks in the neighborhood.
  • Audience & tone: new homeowners, often overwhelmed. Warm, grounded, generous — “you’re home now, here’s everything I wish someone had told me.” Personal, not corporate.
  • Palette: page #fdf8f1 · container #ffffff · text #1c1917 / #78716c (muted) · accent gold #a16207
  • Font: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif
  • Artwork: none — fully native blocks

Build recipe

Each step is one block in the flat stack, top to bottom. [native] = a real email block. [layout] = a free-form layout embedded as a single image.

  1. [native] Eyebrow — text. “FROM YOUR AGENT” fontSize: 12, fontWeight: 700, color #a16207, uppercase, center, tracked.
  2. [native] Heading — text. “Welcome home.” fontSize: 30, fontWeight: 700, color #1c1917, center.
  3. [native] Intro copy — text. “The keys are yours. The next two weeks are equal parts unpacking and discovering — this note has the numbers, the neighbors, and the spots worth walking to. Save it.” fontSize: 15, color #78716c, center, line-height: 1.7.
  4. [native] CTA button — button. Label “Text me anytime”, gold #a16207 fill, white text, soft corners, center, padding 14×32.
  5. [native] Divider — hairline #e7e5e4, generous vertical padding. Separates the welcome from the handoff — the flat model stacks and divides, it does not box.
  6. [native] Utilities heading — text. “Set these up first” fontSize: 18, fontWeight: 700, color #1c1917, left.
  7. [native] Utility 1 — text. “Water & power — Greenfield Utilities, (555) 020-4141. Account opens online in 5 minutes.” fontSize: 15, color #1c1917, left, bold label in gold #a16207.
  8. [native] Utility 2 — text. “Internet — Cedar Broadband, (555) 020-8819. Same-day install on weekdays.” fontSize: 15, color #1c1917, left, tight top padding.
  9. [native] Utility 3 — text. “Trash pickup — Tuesdays. Bins are in the side yard.” fontSize: 15, color #1c1917, left, tight top padding.
  10. [native] Local picks — text. “Three spots worth the walk: The Mill bakery (coffee), Riverbend Books, and Harlow Park at the end of Elm.” fontSize: 15, color #78716c, left, italic.
  11. [native] Closing line — text. “I’ll check in next week. Until then — welcome to the neighborhood.” fontSize: 15, color #1c1917, center, italic.
  12. [native] Signature — text. ”— Sam Ruiz, Greenwood Living” fontSize: 14, color #a16207, center, italic, tight top padding.
  13. [native] Footer — text block with “Greenwood Living · 14 Cedar Ave, Greenfield · [email protected] · Unsubscribe”, fontSize: 12, color #a8a29e, center, recolored to the palette.

Make it yours

  1. Swap “Greenwood Living”, Sam’s name, and the three local spots for your brokerage and your neighborhood picks.
  2. Rewrite the three utility lines with the actual providers and numbers for your area.
  3. Recolor the gold accent — keep the serif type and personal tone for relationship-building.
