One Unified Dashboard to Streamline Your Sale
Assess
Using Collections and Comparative Market Analysis, we can start by tracking market trends, pricing, and available inventory for homes that are similar to yours.
Strategize
By launching your listing not once, but three times with our 3-Phased Marketing Strategy, you can test your pricing strategy, generate early demand, and attract the strongest offers.
Analyze
With Insights, gain a more complete picture of traffic and engagement with your listing. Plus, the Reverse Prospecting tool lets us track how often your listing is liked or shared by clients working with Compass buyer agents, helping us focus on the most serious buyers.
Sell

Maximize your home’s value with the Compass 3-Phased Marketing Strategy
PHASE 1 / LAUNCH AS A COMPASS PRIVATE EXCLUSIVE
Validate Pricing
Unlike traditional brokerages that immediately launch your listing to the public exposing it to negative metrics like days on market and price drop history Compass gives you a strategic head start We showcase your home to a private audience first, allowing us to gather honest feedback on pricing with time to make adjustments before going public
PHASE 2 / LAUNCH AS A COMPASS COMING SOON
Generate Early Demand
Publicly launch your property as a Compass Coming Soon exclusively on Compass.com. This allows you to build buyer anticipation and interest, while staying protected from days on market and price drop history
Showcase your home to our nationwide network of top agents and their serious clients.

PHASE 3 / LAUNCH ON ALL PUBLIC WEBSITES
Sell Better
Go live on all public websites with the right price and maximum demand gained by pre-marketing
Receive key engagement insights on how agents and their buyers are interacting with your listing – data that is lost once it goes live on other public websites.
Ensure all inquiries come directly to me rather than other agents who may prioritize their own listings and are unfamiliar with your home Plus, listing as a Coming Soon on our website can help boost your ranking on Google
During this phase, you have greater control over your data, as photos of your home and personal information do not stay on the Internet
Backed by a validated pricing strategy and early buyer demand, your home is positioned for an efficient, lucrative sale delivering the best possible outcome when it goes live on all public websites

A letter from Compass CEO Robert Reffkin
Thank you for considering Compass to guide you through your home sale. At Compass, we ’ ve built the #1 real estate brokerage by sales volume in the United States and within 10-years of launching our first sale on Compass com, our agents have achieved over $1 trillion in sales volume We’ve accomplished this by helping homeowners like you protect and maximize the value of your most important asset – your home.
Compass has developed a 3-Phased Marketing Strategy, drawing on best practices from real estate developers, professional home builders, and luxury marketers to create demand, build momentum, and ensure your home is best-positioned for success.
This phased marketing strategy can be far more effective than a single public launch. In the same way that Hollywood launches multiple trailers to build anticipation for a movie premiere, the Compass 3-Phased Marketing Strategy allows your agent to launch your listing multiple times, building similar excitement and demand
Your Compass agent will guide you through every step of the strategy to help you choose what works best for your home and help ensure it receives the attention, interest, and the offers it deserves
Thank you,

The Power of Photography
Beautiful photography is one of the most powerful tools for selling your home. Compass uses bestin-class photographers to show your home in its best light, make a positive first impression, and attract more buyers.
Pricing Your Property to Maximize Buyer Activity
Timing of Buyer Activity
A property receives the most traffic within the first few weeks of hitting the market. It is important to get the price right in order to gain the attention of interested buyers and maximize your home's position in the market.
Attracting Buyers Using Competitive Pricing
Using competitive analysis, market research, and Compass’ suite of AI-powered tools, we recommend a price for your property to generate the most activity and offers early on before buyers move on to newer listings.
Compass Off-Markets Lead the Way
Exclusive Access to California’s Hidden High-End Real Estate
By definition, the promotion of off-market listings is restricted to distribution within the listing’s brokerage.* Compass offers a unique advantage to our agents through Compass Private Exclusives. This special feature grants them access to off-market listings and enables them to share them with a network of 7,900+ California agents. This broadens the accessibility of luxury Private Exclusives to a larger pool of clients compared to other brokerages that are limited in size and regional breadth.
San Mateo & Santa Clara Counties: The Luxury Market Share Standard
Compass dominates the luxury market in San Mateo and Santa Clara Counties, outpacing the competition by a significant margin in the sale of homes priced above $5M.**
Reach more prospective buyers with intelligent digital advertising.
By leveraging Compass’ digital advertising tools and partnerships across social media and advertising throughout your listing process, we can generate demand to sell your home faster, and we meet potential buyers where they are, online.
Proprietary Targeting Optimized Performance
Compass helps generate buyer interest by using proprietary data to serve ads to Facebook and Instagram users.
Compass tracks and measures the results of every campaign which allows for continued optimization.
INSTAGRAM IMAGE AD
FACEBOOK VIDEO AD
Engaging Open Houses
Whether it be in-person or a dynamic virtual tour, open houses are one of the most important ways buyers connect with your home.
