How we helped another client sell & move seamlessly off market.


Keeping a home off the market, also known as a pocket listing or private listing, can offer several potential benefits to sellers. We pride ourselves here at Torelli Realty on having a large network of qualified buyers and agents to be able to make these off market homes successful for all parties. Here are some popular advantages to a home seller who may be debating on going live vs keeping off market:


  1. Privacy: Sellers can maintain a higher level of privacy by avoiding the public marketing process. This is especially important for high-profile individuals or those who value discretion in their real estate transactions.

  2. Exclusivity: Limited exposure can create a sense of exclusivity, making the property more desirable to potential buyers who may feel they have access to unique opportunities not widely available.

  3. Reduced Stress: Without the pressure of public showings, open houses, and constant buyer interest, sellers may experience reduced stress and disruption to their daily lives.

  4. Negotiation Control: By dealing with a smaller pool of potential buyers, sellers may have more control over the negotiation process. This can lead to more favorable terms and a smoother transaction.

  5. Flexible Timelines: Private listings allow sellers to operate on their own timeline. They can take their time to find the right buyer without being rushed by external market pressures.

  6. Testing the Market: In some cases, sellers use private listings as a way to test the market and gauge interest without committing to a full-scale marketing campaign. This strategy allows them to assess the property's value and adjust their selling strategy accordingly.

  7. Avoiding Public Scrutiny: Sellers may prefer to keep their property off the market to avoid public scrutiny or speculation about their reasons for selling, which can be particularly relevant in certain situations.

  8. Customized Marketing: Private listings enable sellers to tailor their marketing efforts to a specific audience, ensuring that the property is presented in a way that resonates with a select group of potential buyers.

  9. Controlled Access: Sellers can control who has access to their property, allowing them to screen potential buyers more carefully and limit showings to serious and qualified individuals.

  10. Reduced Costs: Without the need for extensive marketing campaigns, professional photography, and staging, sellers may save on some of the costs associated with selling a home traditionally.
