Pocket Listing 101

GreenTree Properties May 27, 2015

Here’s what you need to know:

A pocket listing is a property for sale that is not listed on the MLS. These off-market properties carry unique benefits for buyers and sellers in today’s market.

Buyers may seek the help of a real estate professional in search of off-market properties, or properties that have yet to hit the market, in low-inventory markets. When inventory is low, buyers may find themselves in steep competition and may grow tired of being outbid. Pocket listings allow for added ease in buying a home since there’s less competition and less stress.

For homeowners undergoing construction, or before construction, the decision to list your home as a pocket listing gives you the added benefit of early exposure without the stress of managing showings. Traditional marketing strategies strive to obtain as much interest in a home as possible. For high-profile homeowners, implementing an off-market strategy for selling their home allows them to maintain privacy, allowing only qualified buyers to preview and tour the home.
