What is Compass’ "Make Me Move Price” Program?
By setting a "Make Me Move Price”, homeowners give real estate agents a glimpse into that dollar amount that could entice them to part with their piece of Wine Country paradise. For my buyers, especially those seeking unique properties or specific locations, this opens up opportunities they wouldn't find on the MLS. It's a discreet way to gauge the market and potentially uncover that perfect Wine Country gem for clients, all the while respecting the privacy of potential sellers in our close-knit community.
How Does the Compass "Make Me Move Price" Program Work?
This program allows homeowners to market their properties in a low-pressure environment, similar to a "Coming Soon" or Compass Private Exclusive, without the formalities of a listing agreement. It's particularly useful for Wine Country regions like St. Helena, Yountville, and Calistoga with their distinctive well sought after luxury properties. Here's how it works:
-
- Set Your Ideal Price: Homeowners determine a "make me move" price that would make selling worthwhile.
- Exclusive Private “Listing”: The property is privately shared with a select network of qualified Compass Agents, ensuring privacy and exclusivity.
- Market Testing Without Commitment: This approach allows sellers to gauge interest without the pressure of a formal sale process.
- No Pressure, No Obligation: Sellers remain in control, with no obligation to sell unless the offer meets their expectations.
For us agents, it's an excellent way to test the market's response and build momentum before a formal listing. We can compare offers against the property's appraised value, helping clients make informed decisions about proceeding with a sale, without the risk of being labeled "stale." This tool is particularly effective in Wine Country, where unique properties and discerning buyers often require a more nuanced approach to real estate transactions.
Why should Homeowners Consider the Compass "Make Me Move Price" Program?
I would recommend the Compass "Make Me Move Price" program to curious homeowners who aren't quite ready to sell. This unique approach is perfect for the Wine Country Real Estate Luxury market, where properties often have distinctive features that appeal to a select group of buyers.
The program offers a low-pressure way to explore the market without the commitment of a traditional listing. It's ideal for those looking to capitalize on our region's often favorable market conditions or waiting for the right offer to fund their next Wine Country adventure.
