Buying Your Home

Outpost is well known for representing some of the best designed homes in the bay area. But these showcases don’t often start out like this. We pride ourselves on working with our buyers to uncover unique opportunities and help our clients realize their vision with our extensive remodeling experience and resources. Over the years, we have parlayed our relationships with other top agents to create a constant source of intel on new listings before they hit the market. Through our off-market networks, our buyer clients have the best access and exposure to the most exciting properties from fixers to estates.

Finding you the right home is a journey of discovery and together we will prioritize what is most important to you and we will chart out the best path toward your destination.

In today’s market many homes are being off-market which means they are sold privately through various agent networks and buyer portals online without ever going on the MLS. Some sellers choose to go this route for privacy, try to sell for the price they want without doing pre market preparations, or they want to test their price without the MLS counting days on market. Homes that are sold via the MLS have much wider exposure, public open houses and broker’s tours and are accessible through hundreds of real estate search providers like Zillow, Redfin, Realtor.com etc. Over the last few years the off-market approach has become a viable alternative to the MLS, in fact 40% of our business last year was buying and selling homes off-market. We are tapped into the local off-market opportunities through our various top producer affiliations such as Top Agent Network, Marin Platinum Group and Marin Power Team. In order to be in the know you have to be working with an agent that is dialed-in to this side of the market.
