Find the real market price – in five weeks, not five months
Interest rates and yield expectations have moved again, and buyers are recalculating. Start with a fixed price today and you will almost always be wrong: too high and the property sits; too low and you leave money on the table. In the Offmarketpool bidding process all matching buyers bid at the same time, sealed and against a deadline. You see the result – and decide freely.
Why now
In many segments buyers and sellers are still apart. A fixed price is a guess – a bidding process measures what the market really pays today.
A property offered for months is seen as “burnt”. Price cuts weaken your position. A process with a fixed timeline prevents that.
Refinancing, portfolio clean-up, an estate settlement or a workout: when a date is fixed, you need predictability, not an open end.
How it works
- 01Preparation (1–2 weeks)
We check your documents with AI for completeness and plausibility and prepare the valuation, exposé and process letter. Missing documents are shown openly in the risk report.
- 02Launch to everyone
On launch day all matching buyers in the pool receive the property at the same time – with a visible clock until the bid deadline.
- 03Due diligence (approx. 3 weeks)
After a confidentiality agreement: data room, AI Q&A with sources, on-site viewings by appointment.
- 04Two bidding rounds
Round 1 is indicative and sealed. The best bidders enter the final round (best & final) – with proof of funds and a notary deadline.
- 05Your decision
You receive all bids with our assessment of price and certainty. You choose – or do not sell. Then the notary appointment.

| Viewing | often not possible | individual on-site appointments |
| Bidding time | one bidding hour | several weeks, clear deadlines |
| Outcome | Award to the highest bid | You decide freely, completion at the notary |

Frequently asked questions
Do I have to sell to the highest bidder?
No. Bids are non-binding until the notary, and you decide freely – including not to sell at all. That is what separates a bidding process from an auction.
What if documents are missing?
The data room does not have to be complete. The AI checks what is there, and the risk report shows every bidder the same picture. Bidders price in what is missing – renegotiation becomes harder.
Do bidders see the other bids?
No. Bidders only see how many investors are in the data room and how many bids have been placed – never amounts or names.
How long does it take?
About five weeks from launch: around three weeks to the first round, two weeks of final round, then your decision.
