The buyer-side reality

House hunting in 2026 has become a part-time job - and it shouldn't be.

You opened a Saturday to drive 90 minutes. The listing photos didn't match the floor plan. The agent showed up late and didn't know the neighborhood. By Sunday night you've burned the weekend and still don't own anything.

Hunting through 47 Zillow tabs

Every promising listing is already pending. The new ones rarely match what you actually want. You're filtering for square feet because the algorithm doesn't understand "this is where my kids will grow up."

Showings that don't match the wishlist

You gave your agent a clear brief - 3-bed, walkable district, real backyard. The Saturday tour shows you 2-beds on busy streets. Then they ask you to "stay open." Open to what - wasting more weekends?

Agents who ghost after the listing posts

On the sell side it's worse. Sign goes in the yard, photos go up, and then radio silence for three weeks. No status, no buyer feedback, no price-adjustment plan. Just "the market's slow right now."

Before · After

What a private buyer-side desk actually changes.

Before working with Holloway

Refreshing Zillow at 11pm hoping a new listing dropped.
Driving across the metro to see homes that ignore your brief.
Losing every multi-offer because your agent waited 24 hours.
Selling for asking when your block was up 9% last quarter.
Walking into closing with 14 line items you've never seen.

After working with Holloway

3-5 hand-vetted listings emailed to you every Monday - including off-market.
One Saturday tour, four homes, all matching your brief on paper and in person.
Offers drafted same-day with a clean escalation clause priced to win.
Listing burst: 7-day pre-market warm-up, then live with 38+ pre-warmed buyers.
Closing-cost walk-through 5 days out - no line item is ever a surprise.

Why a private desk

We built a buyer-side desk because the old model rewards transactions, not fit.

Most agents run a volume model - they take any client, push any listing, and close on the path of least resistance. We do the opposite. Every buyer gets a written brief, a private off-market feed, and a desk that says no to listings that don't match. That's why 84% of our buyers close on the second or third home shown.

Brief intake (90 min)

Lifestyle, commute, budget ceiling, hard "no" list, school zone target. Written, not assumed.

Private feed (weekly)

3-5 listings per Monday, including off-market and pre-MLS through our broker network.

Curated Saturday tour

4 homes max, all pre-walked by us. Tour day is decision day, not exploration day.

Offer + close protection

Escalation clause priced to win, closing-cost walkthrough 5 days out, no surprises at the table.

90-DAY
FIT

90-day fit guarantee.

If after 90 days you don't feel the brief is being honored - wrong neighborhoods, slow communication, listings off-target - you can release us with zero obligation. We'll hand back your brief, intro you to two other agents we trust, and part friends.

How are you different from a typical agent at a big brokerage?

Big-brokerage agents run a volume model - more clients, more listings, faster cycle. We cap intake at 22 active engagements per year. That's why we can pre-walk every home, draft same-day offers, and stay involved 12 months past closing.

Do you cover both buying and selling?

Yes. About 60% of our work is buyer-side, 40% sell-side. Many clients hire us for both - list with us, buy through us, one transition.

What price range do you typically work in?

$450K to $4.2M residential. Sweet spot is $700K-$1.6M. We don't take investment-property-only briefs (different muscle, different relationships).

What does "off-market" actually mean?

Listings we know about through our broker-to-broker network 7-30 days before they hit MLS. About 30-40% of our buyer closings are off-market sourced.

What's the brief intake call?

25 minutes by phone or in person. You describe what you're looking for, we ask the questions you've never been asked, and at the end either we agree to work together or we refer you out. No pitch, no sign-up.

Are you taking new clients this quarter?

We cap intake at 22 active engagements per year - usually 4-6 new briefs per quarter. Current quarter has 3 slots open.

Q2 intake

3 buyer-side slots remain for this quarter.

We don't run countdown timers or fake scarcity. The cap is real - 22 active engagements per year means roughly 4-6 new briefs per quarter. Q2 has 3 slots left as of this week.
