What's in OUR pocket?
Over the course of 2023 and 2024, more than 272 homes sold off market in Santa Barbara and Montecito. In Q1 2025 alone, 13 off-market properties closed in Montecito, including 4 over $10 million.
Off-market sales, also known as Pocket Listings, are an opportunity for both Buyers and Sellers. For Sellers, it’s about discretion, testing the price and timing without the noise of going live. For Buyers, it’s access to properties they wouldn’t otherwise see, often before anyone else knows they are available. These deals rely on more than data — they’re built on local relationships, agent-to-agent trust, and a clear understanding of what matters most to each client.
