When the demand is too high for the inventory to keep up, buying a home starts to feel more like a race, which takes away the excitement of searching for the perfect home for your family. If you’re having trouble finding a home to buy, we have the perfect solution for you—off-market properties.

Off-market properties are properties for sale but haven’t hit the market yet, which means very few will know about them. The first ones to find out are dedicated real estate professionals like myself. By partnering with us in buying your new home, you gain access to homes long before they’re officially listed on the market, effectively eliminating competition.

By maintaining communication with clients, we become the first to find out when a home is being prepared for sale. The best part is, these home-sellers don’t mind having their home sale information leaked by us to speed up the selling process.

Because of this close connection that we have with our extensive network, you will receive real-time insider alerts and information whenever a property that matches your criteria is being prepared to hit the market.

We will also help you explore neighborhoods that you want to live in and go door-to-door to ask residents if they are considering selling their property, or know someone who does. When we collect information on off-market homes, we make sure that the search fits just right for you.

If you want a way to get past the limited choices in the market, you will need a real estate professional who is willing to go the extra mile to help you find the home that you and your family deserve. Call or email me today with any questions. We look forward to hearing from you!
