Home Buyer's Tool

As an interactive online home search tool, Collections allows homebuyers and their agents the ability to organize, monitor, discuss and collaborate on a hand-picked portfolio of properties.

Designed to marry high-tech and high-touch, Collections brings together the control homebuyers and sellers have come to expect in following property listings online with the expertise of the real estate agent in recommending homes that meet unique criteria. Collections gives agents tools to share real-time updates, such as availability and pricing changes, and for agents and clients to communicate on individual listings, as well as the overall search.

While 51% of consumers find the home they eventually purchase online, 88% rely on the expertise of an agent to aid them in that search, according to a research by the National Association of Realtors. Collections represents a major improvement in client-agent communitcation and an easier, streamlined way to manage te home search process online.

"Collections is the real estate industry's answer to the modern way people like to shop. Today, everything is about curation and personalization. With that in mind, we set out to build an intuitive and visually compelling way for clients and consumers to search for a home and interact with our agents," says Leonard Steinberg, the country's top-rated real estate agent and president of Compass. "Collections helps the homebuyer feel in control of the process and makes searching for or selling a home less cumbersome and more enjoyable."

What makes Collections different is that it's the first and only collaborative search tool powered by a brokerage that consilidates all of the communication streams into one sleek platform.

"It takes everything an agent and client are used to doing over email, phone, text and consolidates that communication into one tool," Steinberg says. "It also considers that real estate decisions are rarely made alone."
