Pocket listings
All our agents have their own pocket listings that we are not allowed to advertise on our website. But we know they are for sale and at what cost. We also know the owners of properties who are not really in the market, but might be willing to sell for the right price. That, if you have very particular needs for a certain property. AND our agents work together with other agents in the same area, so we are able to find out for you where the bones are buried.
