NEW YORK & DETROIT — February 27, 2026 — Compass, Inc. (NYSE: COMP), the nation’s largest residential real estate brokerage, and Rocket Companies (NYSE: RKT), the parent company of Redfin and Rocket Mortgage, today announced a first-of-its-kind three-year strategic partnership. This alliance integrates Compass’s exclusive “Coming Soon” and “Private Exclusive” listings directly into the Redfin portal, providing unprecedented exposure for sellers and a broader selection for buyers.
Through this partnership, Compass’s unique inventory now reaches Redfin’s massive digital audience, projected to exceed 2 billion visits in 2026. For the first time, Redfin’s 60 million monthly active users have immediate access to Compass “Coming Soon” listings, with “Private Exclusives” to follow.
“We are reclaiming the digital yard sign for our agents,” said Robert Reffkin, Founder and CEO of Compass. “By partnering with Rocket and Redfin, we are giving our sellers the ability to publicly market their homes to 60 million buyers without the traditional pressures of ‘Days on Market’ or price-reduction histories. It is a huge win for seller choice and agent-driven marketing.”
Key Benefits of the Partnership
• Massive Exposure: Compass listings gain visibility on a platform with nearly 2 billion annual visits.
• Seller Control: “Coming Soon” listings on Redfin do not display “Days on Market” or price history.
• Mortgage Integration: Rocket Mortgage offers preferred pricing to Compass clients, including potential rate reductions or lender credits up to $6,000.
• Lead Generation: Compass agents gain access to over 1 million high-intent buyer inquiries generated through the Redfin platform.
The integration of Compass “Coming Soon” listings onto Redfin is effective immediately.

Why This Is the Biggest Real Estate Story of the Year
If you’ve been following the real estate news, you saw the headline: Compass and Redfin (under Rocket Companies) are officially partners.
For years, “Coming Soon” listings were the hidden gems of the real estate world — accessible only within brokerage networks or limited platforms. Now the gates are wide open.
2 Billion Reasons This Matters
Redfin is a juggernaut. In 2026, it’s projected to surpass 2 billion visits. That means your home is not just “on the market.”
It’s on one of the most visited real estate platforms in the world.
The “Coming Soon” Secret Weapon
The biggest fear sellers have?
Days on Market (DOM).
The second a home hits the MLS, the clock starts ticking. If it doesn’t sell immediately, buyers start asking:
• “What’s wrong with it?”
• “Why hasn’t it sold?”
• “Will they reduce the price?”
This partnership changes that.
When we list your home as a Compass “Coming Soon” on Redfin:
1. Zero DOM: You get exposure to 60 million monthly users without triggering the Days on Market counter.
2. No Public Price History: Test a premium price point. Adjust if needed before MLS launch — with no visible price drop history.
3. Strategic Buzz: We build demand before the official launch date.
This is modern seller leverage.

Why Work with David Weiss at Compass?
If you live in Danville, Walnut Creek, Alamo, San Ramon, Dublin, Pleasanton, or Livermore, this partnership becomes even more powerful when paired with the right local strategy.
David Weiss is a Senior Real Estate Advisor with Compass serving:
• Danville
• Walnut Creek
• Alamo
• San Ramon
• Dublin
• Pleasanton
• Livermore
• Throughout Contra Costa County and Alameda County
Local Expertise + National Power
The Compass/Rocket/Redfin alliance gives you global-level exposure.
David gives you hyper-local precision.
That combination matters.
What David Brings to the Table
1. Strategic Pricing for East Bay Micro-Markets
Danville 94526 is not the same as 94506. South Livermore is different from Springtown. Walnut Creek luxury differs from entry-level condos. Pricing requires neighborhood-level insight.
2. Pre-Marketing Strategy
David leverages:
• Compass Private Exclusives
• Compass “Coming Soon” on Redfin
• Targeted digital ads
• Direct mail to local move-up buyers
• Zillow and database retargeting
Before your home even hits the MLS, buyers are watching.
3. Seller Control & Leverage
With this new partnership, David can:
• Test price positioning
• Create urgency without pressure
• Attract off-market buyers
• Negotiate without stigma
4. Buyer Advantage
For buyers, David now has:
• Early access to Compass inventory
• Insight into homes before the broader market
• Integration with Rocket Mortgage preferred pricing
In competitive East Bay markets, early access is everything.

Why Compass vs. Other Brokerages?
Many brokerages simply “input and wait.”
Compass is building the infrastructure of modern real estate:
• Private listing networks
• National portal integration
• Proprietary marketing tools
• Technology-driven exposure
• Mortgage alignment through Rocket
Compass agents are not just listing homes.
They are controlling distribution.
That’s a major shift in power — back to the agent and the seller.
⸻
Why This Matters Specifically in Danville to Livermore
The East Bay is highly sensitive to:
• Interest rate shifts
• School district demand
• Luxury inventory timing
• Move-up buyer psychology
In markets like Danville and Alamo, perception equals price.
In Walnut Creek and Pleasant Hill, DOM can quickly impact leverage.
In Livermore and Dublin, pricing bands create sharp buyer reactions.
Being able to market widely without accumulating DOM is a game changer.
⸻
Thinking About Selling in 2026?
This is not the same market as 2021.
It’s not 2023 either.
It’s strategic.
The sellers who win in 2026 will:
• Control their launch timing
• Test the market intelligently
• Maximize exposure
• Avoid unnecessary price reductions
• Use data-driven positioning
The Compass + Rocket + Redfin alliance gives you national leverage.
David Weiss gives you local execution.
If you’re considering selling in Danville, Walnut Creek, Alamo, San Ramon, Dublin, Pleasanton, or Livermore — or anywhere in Contra Costa or Alameda County — now is the time to understand how this new platform advantage can work for you.
Because in this market, visibility and strategy are everything.
