Where do I find off-market property listings?

Have you ever had friends or family share their excitement about a recent off-market purchase? If yes, you’ve probably heard about the convenience of avoiding months of research and visiting crowded Open Homes - and abstaining from competitive bidding wars.

But you might be a bit confused.

If it’s off the market and considered ‘just-listed’, is it really for sale?

The answer is yes.

‘Off-market’ is a well-known real estate term that refers to properties available for sale, but not advertised across the mainstream real estate channels. Since the marketing campaign hasn’t yet begun, it’s kind of a secret. Unless you’re in the know!

What’s the secret to tapping into off-market properties?

Don’t worry - you don’t have to head underground or join some sort of real estate gang. However, it does usually involve building a strong relationship with multiple real estate agents in your desired neighbourhood.

This can be very time-consuming as it usually involves:

• Calling various real estate agents and repeating your criteria to each.
• Asking agents to add you to off-market email databases and/or call you if something suitable comes up
• Sifting through a long list of emails from agents to find relevant properties
• Following up with the agents on a regular basis to check in and stay top-of-mind

Sound exhausting? Yes, it is! If you’re after an easier solution, then we recommend signing up to an off-market platform, like Listing Loop. Our real estate marketplace gives buyers the red carpet treatment. You can now be the first to know about just-listed off-market properties for sale before they are advertised anywhere else.
