COMPASS BUYER INTELLIGENCE

KNOW THE DEMAND. BEFORE YOU DECIDE.

RECENT SALES ARE ONLY PART OF THE PICTURE.

RECENT SALES ARE ONLY PART OF THE PICTURE.

Comparable sales help us understand what buyers have paid. Your selling strategy also needs to consider the people searching now. Compass Buyer Demand draws on saved searches and activity within the Compass network to show how demand varies across price points and property types. It adds another perspective to the pricing conversation—not a replacement for comparable sales. We look at that information alongside your home’s condition, its competition, and your priorities. Then we talk through the options.

WHILE WE MARKET

DON’T JUST COUNT INTEREST. FOLLOW UP ON IT.

Marketing should give us more than a view count. Compass Reverse Prospecting provides visibility into activity such as listing views, shares, favorites, and comments within the Compass platform. That information helps guide follow-up with agents whose clients may be interested. For Housecats, the next step is a conversation: answer questions, understand what may be holding someone back, and help arrange the next showing. We use the information to direct our attention—not to assume a click will become an offer.

LOCAL INTELLIGENCE

THE DATA IS USEFUL. WHAT WE DO WITH IT MATTERS.

A search match is a starting point. Understanding the fit takes a closer look.

For a waterfront property, we examine the shoreline, pier, water access, and the way the home lives. For an older home, we work through its character, condition, and the questions a buyer will need answered. For every property, we consider the alternatives buyers will compare it with.

Our job is to connect the available information to the decisions in front of you: what to prepare, how to price, what to emphasize, and where to focus our outreach.

COMMON QUESTIONS

Does this show every buyer in the market?

No. Compass Buyer Demand reflects available buyer activity within the Compass network—not every buyer in the market.

We consider those insights alongside comparable sales, competing listings, and local market knowledge. They add perspective to your selling strategy, but they are not a complete count of potential buyers for your home.

Can we review demand before my home is listed?

Yes. Compass Buyer Demand can help us understand what buyers within the Compass network are searching for before your home is listed. We use that information to help inform your pricing and positioning strategy.

Once your property is being marketed on the Compass platform, Reverse Prospecting provides a separate view of activity on your listing. That information can help us focus our follow-up with agents whose clients may be interested.

Does a match or listing view mean someone will make an offer?

No. A matching search or a listing view can indicate possible interest, but neither is a commitment to schedule a showing or make an offer.

We use those signals to guide follow-up, answer questions, and learn more about the potential fit. Interest is a starting point—not a guarantee of an offer or a sale.

Is this the same as a home valuation?

No. A buyer-demand review explores available information about what buyers are searching for. It is one part of the pricing conversation—not a home valuation or an appraisal.

Our pricing recommendation also considers comparable sales, competing properties, your home’s condition and features, and your selling goals. The goal is to put the demand in context—not let one number decide your strategy.

Buyer-demand and listing-engagement insights reflect available activity within the Compass network, not the entire market. They do not guarantee an offer, a sale, or a particular sale price.
