How Compass Private Exclusives Benefit Silicon Valley Home Sellers

In an era where privacy is increasingly cherished, the way we buy and sell homes is undergoing a significant transformation. Compass Private Exclusives, an innovative and popular real estate program, offers a unique approach to this process ensuring utmost discretion, flexibility, and exceptional value.

What are Compass Private Exclusives?

A Compass Private Exclusive listing is an exclusive off-market property listing that is shared directly with the vast network of Compass real estate agents and their potential buyers. This modern take on the traditional ‘pocket listing’ ensures that the details of the property are not widely disseminated and do not appear on any public home search websites.`

Private Exclusives are off-market listings only visible to Compass agents and their serious buyers. This allows sellers to soft launch their upcoming sale to an expansive audience without being officially on the market. With no online history except on Compass, Private Exclusives do not accumulate days on market, show prior price adjustments, or appear on public home search websites.

The Perks of Compass Private Exclusives

Optimal Discretion

Compass Private Exclusives understand that privacy is a priceless commodity in today’s world. The decision to sell or buy a home is a deeply personal one, and it is crucial to safeguard the information related to it. Compass Private Exclusives ensure that you maintain your privacy while still exposing your Silicon Valley Luxury Home to top real estate agents and their exclusive buyers.

Soft Launch before being Market Ready

Private Exclusives allow you to market your home to buyers prior to investing time or effort into preparing it for sale on the open market.  You may well find that there’s a motivated buyer out there today who will be thrilled to buy your home 100% as-is, in its current condition, for the price you want – potentially saving you tens of thousands of dollars and inordinate time and hassle.

Unmatched Flexibility

With Compass Private Exclusives, you control when and how to reveal the details about your property, including its price. This flexibility allows you to strategize and decide the timing of sharing your information, ensuring that you can manage it according to your preferences. That’s right:  you can have your property listed as a Compass Private Exclusive and choose not to reveal a price to potential buyers.

Launch your Listing Three Times

Using a Private Exclusive strategy creates three separate opportunities to launch your property: first on Compass.com as a Private Exclusive, shown only to Compass agents and their buyers.  Next, you are able to launch it as a “coming soon” listing on the MLS (when it can be shown to any buyer/agent), and then a third time when the listing goes live and “active” on the MLS, when it will be propagated out to national real estate portal sites.

Compass Private Exclusive – Sample Listing Insights

Generate Buzz

Build early demand for your home before it hits the public market. Just like a movie trailer, a Private Exclusive signals to buyers that something is coming, weeks or months in advance. As word quietly spreads, you may find a surprising amount of interest in your property from buyers due to the cachet of having an exclusive opportunity not available to the general public.

Premium Quality Exposure

Your property retains exposure to a vast network of Compass agents and gets a premium placement on our agent-facing platform. This ensures that your home gains the attention of potential buyers without compromising your privacy.

Exceptional Value

By testing your price on the market privately, you can gather key insights without your listing becoming stale. This approach helps you get the best offer for your property and ensures that you extract the maximum value from your home sale or purchase. Avoid the negative impact from accumulating days on market and public price drops. Listing as a Private Exclusive gives you feedback from buyers on your aspirational price and positioning.

For Best Results

Why Choose Compass Private Exclusives?

Life’s circumstances can often be unpredictable and may warrant you to sell your home privately. Here are some reasons why many home sellers choose to list their home as a Compass Private Exclusive:

A Word from Our Clients

Here’s what one of our satisfied clients, David S. and Victoria H., had to say about their experience with Compass Private Exclusives:

My clients and I tested an aggressive price as a Private Exclusive on Compass. Another agent brought buyers to see the home and they submitted a full price, all-cash offer within days. My clients said this was the easiest, no-hassle sale they’ve ever experienced!

A Note on Availability

The Compass Private Exclusive program’s availability varies by location and local policy definitions.  In some markets, such as the Greater Seattle area, the program is not available. The pre-marketing and listing strategies are independently determined by the client, and Compass does not recommend one specific strategy or guarantee results.

However, Compass Private Exclusives are available throughout the Greater Bay Area, Silicon Valley, Santa Cruz, and Monterey and can be a very useful marketing tool for homeowners who want to sell their homes quietly.
