The Selling Process
The marketing strategies that Compass supports are not novel or new. In fact, they have been used by the largest and most successful group of sellers in the industry—professional homebuilders and real estate developers. They have a sophisticated playbook on how to sell homes and just like some homeowners, have properties they want to advertise that aren’t ready to be shown. Here are the key things they do:
Selling with Compass
-
They extend their marketing runway by controlling when the property is put on the MLS, helping them minimize public days on market or price drop history. Excessive days on market and price-drop history can devalue their properties in the eyes of buyers.
-
They put the property on their website first, so all inbound buyer inquiries go directly to their listing agent, who knows the home best and, therefore, can serve the seller better.
-
They test an aspirational price or validate a pricing strategy privately before listing on the MLS.
-
They pre-market while staging and preparing the home to create interest and anticipation before it’s ready to launch.
-
They learn from the data and analytics they get from their websites, including property page views, visits, and engagement insights.
-
They control which websites their photos, address, and data appear on and protect their data.

I would absolutely recommend this program to friends. It was so simple. Our agent guided us through the entire process and our home sold for 200k over ask!
