How it Works
Access to our Private Exclusive, off-market listings, is seamless and designed to give my buyers an edge over other buyers allowing them to avoid fierce competition and reduce their time spent home searching.
STEP 1
Setup A Compass One Collection
EASILY SEE ALL PRIVATE EXCLUSIVE LISTINGS
A Collection is a digital, interactive home search where buyers can save and sort properties that meet their criteria. When off-market properties become available they’ll be immediately notified for a buyer to see and collaborate with any questions.
STEP 2
Arrange a Showing
MAKE A TOUR REQUEST
Once on a Collection, communicating a tour request happens with just the click of a button. Working with a spouse or family member? They too can easily be added to the Collection and communication is seamless for everyone.
STEP 3
Make an Offer
OFF-MARKET DEALS MADE EASY
Buying a home off-market used to be a series of confusing steps that was only available to the well connected. With the Compass One Platform and Collections, it’s never been easier to source and close Private Exclusive, off-market listings.
How do I see the complete market of listings?
Some sellers in Walnut Creek, Danville, San Ramon, and the surrounding 680/24 corridor choose to sell privately instead of publishing their home online. These off-market and Private Exclusive listings never appear on Zillow or Redfin, but qualified buyers can access them here with our help.
OUR SOLUTION
By creating a Collection we extend our private MLS subscription to our clients. This means access to MLS Coming Soon listings regardless of broker.
Do sellers even sell off-market?
Yes! Some absolutely do. Not all sellers prioritize their bottom line when deciding to market their property privately. Some are motivated to preserve the privacy of their home sale, avoid open houses, get a fast sale, or by some other factor/s.
OUR SOLUTION
We bring only serious, well-qualified buyers in for private showings. Accessing Private Exclusive, off-market listings is a win-win for buyers and sellers.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Private Exclusive listing?
A Private Exclusive is a home marketed privately within the Compass network. These properties are not published on the public MLS, which means they never appear on sites like Zillow, Redfin, or Realtor.com. This gives my clients a "first look" at inventory before the general public.
Why are these homes missing from Zillow and Realtor.com?
Many luxury sellers in the East Bay prioritize privacy. They want to avoid the stress of public open houses or simply want to test a price point privately. By using a Private Exclusive strategy, they control who enters their home while still reaching serious, qualified buyers.
What areas do you cover for off-market homes?
I specialize in sourcing off-market and "Coming Soon" listings throughout the 680 corridor, specifically focusing on Walnut Creek, Danville, Alamo, San Ramon, and Pleasant Hill.
How do I arrange a showing for a private listing?
Once you submit the form above, I will create a personalized "Collection" for you. This is a private, interactive portal where you can view current off-market homes, ask questions, and request tours with a single click.
Is there a fee to access these exclusive listings?
No. Access to my Private Exclusive database and "Coming Soon" listings is a complimentary service I provide to help my buyers gain a competitive edge in the East Bay market.
Serving buyers searching for off-market and Private Exclusive homes across Walnut Creek, Danville, Alamo, San Ramon, Pleasant Hill, and nearby East Bay neighborhoods.
*Findings are descriptive statistics and compare the average of Compass residential listings that went active on a MLS and were pre-marketed as a Compass Private Exclusive and/or Compass Coming Soon vs. the average of Compass residential listings that went active on a MLS but were not pre-marketed as a Compass Private Exclusive and/or Compass Coming Soon from January 1, 2024 - December 31, 2024 as well as measure the percentage of Compass Coming Soon residential listings that sold during the period January 1, 2024 - December 31, 2024. Compass Coming Soon listings that sold off the MLS are identified as having a close date in 2024, were pre-marketed as a Compass Coming Soon, and were on the MLS for less than one day. Source: Compass data. Findings from the internal analysis were based on a hedonic regression analysis that examined Compass residential closed sell-side transactions from January 1, 2024 - December 31, 2024, nationally and for all residential property types (single family, co-op, condo, townhouse, and condop). For 2024, Compass pre-marketed listings are associated with an average 2.9% increase in the final close price versus Compass listings that went directly to the MLS. The estimated effect has a 95% confidence interval ranging from 1.9% and 3.9%. This finding may vary depending on market conditions and seasonality.
The results provided are based on current data and methodologies, and should not be interpreted as definitive predictions of future outcomes. Compass utilizes a Compass Private Exclusive listing and/or Compass Coming Soon listing at the direction of the seller. Compass makes no warranty, representation or guarantee as to the accuracy of these results or any actual outcome of using the Three Phase Marketing Program. Results may vary.
