Toronto's high prices mean commission savings of $50,000–$80,000+ — money that stays with you in a private sale.
A private home sale in Toronto is a transaction arranged outside public MLS marketing. Choose what property information you share with potential buyers. Check your price and existing representation agreements, then arrange closing with a local legal professional.
Toronto sellers pay 4–5% in agent commissions — on a $1.2M home, that's $48,000–$60,000. Every dollar of this stays with you in a private sale.
Toronto's combination of high prices, sophisticated buyer pool, and active assignment market makes it Canada's most active off-market city. Sellers here have access to a deep pool of identity-verified buyers who are specifically seeking off-market opportunities in the GTA — from first-time buyers trying to avoid bidding wars to investors seeking rent-controlled multifamily properties.

Your lawyer handles title transfer. No agent commission — you keep 4–5% more of your sale price.
In Toronto, a real estate lawyer handles title transfer. Toronto buyers pay both Ontario's provincial Land Transfer Tax AND Toronto's Municipal Land Transfer Tax — this is a buyer cost, not yours. Your lawyer manages the closing, mortgage discharge, and title registration. Budget $1,500–$3,500 for legal fees.
Toronto's micro-market variation means pricing accuracy is critical. OffMarketMatch's AI CMA tool generates a data-backed price range using recent sold data from your specific neighbourhood. In private sales, accurate pricing replaces the offer-night dynamic — you want a price that attracts serious buyers and leaves room for principled negotiation.
If you're selling a pre-construction assignment, the developer's assignment clause in your purchase agreement governs the process. Most Toronto developers require their consent and charge a nominal fee. Assignments must be advertised privately — OffMarketMatch connects assignment sellers with qualified buyers who understand the process.
On a $1.2M Toronto detached home, traditional agent commissions range from $48,000–$60,000 (4–5% split between buyer and seller agents). Private sale through OffMarketMatch saves virtually all of this — you pay legal fees of $1,500–$3,500, nothing more. Net saving: $45,000–$58,000.
Yes. OffMarketMatch's Deal Hunter AI automatically matches your listing against verified buyers' buy box criteria. Toronto has one of Canada's deepest pools of motivated off-market buyers — investors, end-users, and assignment seekers who specifically search private channels first.
No legal requirement. In practice, many Toronto buyers request the right to conduct their own home inspection as a condition. You can provide a recent inspection report as a sign of good faith and to speed the process, but the decision is yours. Your lawyer advises on disclosure obligations specific to your property.
Almost exclusively. Toronto developers restrict public MLS advertising of assignment sales to protect their primary sales program. As an assignment seller, your only option is a private platform. OffMarketMatch connects you with qualified buyers who understand assignments and can close quickly.
Yes. You can list your current home as a seller while setting up a Buy Box as a buyer. Many Toronto users are simultaneously selling one property and seeking to buy another — the platform accommodates both roles, letting you coordinate your sale and purchase timelines privately without public listing pressure.
