Private Listings — Verified Sellers & Buyers

Private Real Estate Listings
Across Canada

A private property listing is an offer marketed through non-MLS channels. Sellers choose what information to share; protected details require eligible access.

Every seller and buyer on OffMarketMatch is identity-verified. Every listing is real. Every connection is protected by an NCNDA.

How Private Listings Work on OffMarketMatch

A structured private marketplace with trust built in from the first connection.

01

Verify Your Identity

Complete KYC verification so buyers and sellers know they're connecting with real, accountable parties.

02

Set Your Criteria

Buyers submit a Buy Box — geography, property type, price range, investment criteria. Sellers list privately.

03

Sign an NCNDA

Before sensitive information is shared, both parties sign a Non-Circumvention, Non-Disclosure Agreement.

04

Connect & Transact

Direct connection between buyer and seller. Negotiate, set conditions, and close with your lawyer.

Why Sellers List Privately

No Public Exposure

Your home's photos, address, and asking price stay private. Only verified, matched buyers see your listing.

Pre-Screened Buyers

Every buyer has verified their identity and signed an NCNDA before receiving your contact details.

Save the Commission

Eliminate 4–5% in agent fees. On a $1M home, that's $40,000–$50,000 staying with you, not intermediaries.

Common Questions About Private Listings

What are private real estate listings in Canada?

Private real estate listings are properties available for purchase that are not publicly listed on MLS or Realtor.ca. They're accessible only through private platforms, agent networks, or direct seller outreach. OffMarketMatch provides a dedicated platform for private listings across all Canadian provinces.

Why do sellers use private listings instead of MLS?

Sellers choose private listings for privacy (no public exposure of their home and personal situation), commission savings (avoiding the 4–5% agent fee), timeline control (choosing their closing date rather than following MLS rhythms), and the ability to pre-screen buyers before sharing their address.

How can I access private real estate listings in Canada?

Register on OffMarketMatch, complete identity verification, and submit your buyer criteria. The platform's AI matching system will notify you when private listings match your requirements. You can also set up automated Deal Hunter searches that run every 6 hours against new private listings.

Are private listings real or are they scams?

Private listings on OffMarketMatch are from verified sellers who have completed identity verification and property ownership confirmation. The platform's anti-fraud systems and NCNDA protocols protect both buyers and sellers from fraudulent activity. Unlike unregulated social media groups, OffMarketMatch has structured verification for every participant.

Can I finance a private listing with a mortgage?

Yes. Mortgage lenders care about the property and the borrower's creditworthiness — not how the listing was found. You can use any conventional mortgage, CMHC-insured mortgage, or alternative financing to purchase a property found through a private listing platform.

What types of properties are available as private listings in Canada?

Private listings include all property types: single-family homes, condominiums, townhouses, income properties (duplexes, triplexes, apartment buildings), luxury estates, waterfront properties, rural acreages, commercial real estate, and development land. Investment and income properties are particularly common in private listing channels.
