What to expect

A private exclusive listing is an off-market home that can be shared by a Compass agent directly with their colleagues and their buyers. Property details aren’t disseminated widely and won’t appear on public home search websites.

 

Discretion

Privacy is the ultimate commodity and the decision to sell your home is a personal one.

Flexibility

Decide when to share details about your home, including price, more broadly on your own timing.

Quality

Retain exposure to Compass agents, including premium placement on our agent facing platform.

Value

Get the best offer by testing the market privately to gather key insights without your listing getting stale.

Reasons why you might choose to sell your home as a private exclusive:

  • New job or relocation

  • Family changes like marriage or divorce

  • Evolving financial circumstances

  • Health issues

  • Valuable belongings like art or furniture

  • Opposition to holding open houses

“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 experienced!”
