Key point — NYI (Not Yet Interested) is a temporary pause, not a disqualification. It removes a property from active fulfillment while preserving the lead for re-engagement at 30, 60, or 90 days. NYI is not the same as DNC.
When to Tag NYI
Use NYI when an owner says they are not interested right now but is not permanently out. Common scenarios:
- "Call me in 6 months"
- "Not selling this year, but maybe next"
- Decision maker reached, confirmed ownership, declined current offer
How to Tag
- Open the property record in Salesmate
- Add the tag: NYI
- (Optional) Note the expected re-engagement time
- Update Phone Status to reflect the conversation
Pro tip: Be specific in notes. Example: "Said they're interested next quarter — wants to hold until after tax season."
What Happens Next
- Property is removed from active fulfillment (mail, SMS, skip trace)
- Your CSM reviews and archives it, preserving all history
- Property enters a re-engagement list for future outreach
- At the defined interval (30/60/90 days), a review task triggers automatically
Common Questions
Can I still contact an NYI lead manually?
Yes. The tag only pauses automated fulfillment. You can call or email anytime.
What if the lead becomes interested earlier?
Remove the NYI tag and update notes. The property re-enters active campaigns immediately.
Is NYI the same as DNC?
No. DNC is permanent and legally binding. NYI is a temporary nurture strategy — the lead remains in your pipeline.
