Every email sequence a modern loan officer should run — new lead, application, milestone updates, past-client anniversary, and refi alerts — with the exact triggers and cadence.

Email is the backbone of mortgage nurture — cheap, compliant, and the channel borrowers open when they're actually ready to read. Below are the six sequences every loan officer should have running by default. Everything ships built-in inside LoanOfficer.ai.

1. New lead sequence (Day 0–14)

Trigger: form submission. Cadence: Day 0 immediate intro, Day 1 pre-approval CTA, Day 3 rate education, Day 7 case study, Day 14 direct ask. Pair with SMS for max response.

2. Application follow-through (Day 0–30)

Trigger: application started but not completed. AI drafts a personalized nudge every 48 hours until completion. Recovers 20–35% of abandoned apps.

3. In-process milestone updates

Trigger: pipeline stage change. Borrower + realtor + selling agent get automatic status emails on app submission, appraisal, CTC, and funding. See workflow automation examples.

4. Post-close welcome (Day 0–90)

Trigger: loan funded. Day 1 congrats + review ask, Day 30 homeowner tips, Day 60 referral ask, Day 90 first market update.

5. Anniversary + refi watch (Year 1+)

Trigger: loan anniversary + rate drop threshold. Includes live property value and equity position via Property Pulse.

6. Realtor partner nurture

Trigger: realtor tag. Monthly market snapshot + co-branded content + referral ask. Related: realtor referral automation.
