In February 2025, my brokerage, Compass—a leading residential real estate brokerage in the United States—unveiled Compass One, an innovative, client-facing dashboard designed to transform the real estate experience. This all-in-one platform strengthens the connection between Compass agents and their clients, delivering real-time insights and greatly enhancing transparency, tracking, and control throughout every stage of the home buying and selling journey.

"Buying and selling a home can be stressful and confusing—but it doesn’t have to be. By enabling agents with technology that delivers 24/7 transparency before, during, and after the transaction, Compass One showcases the agent’s value well beyond just facilitating transactions: It reinforces their role as trusted, full-service real estate advisors, providing clients with expert guidance at every stage of homeownership."
— Robert Reffkin, Compass Founder and CEO

Understanding Compass One

Compass One is an integrated digital platform that consolidates Compass tools and services into a single, easy-to-navigate experience. It’s designed to guide clients through every phase of their real estate journey—before, during, and after the transaction—ensuring a streamlined, transparent, and stress-free process.

Before the Transaction

From the moment your agent invites you to join Compass One, the platform becomes your personalized real estate companion.

• Buyers receive a curated dashboard with a custom timeline, allowing them to track their home search, review property tours, analyze market data, and access exclusive Compass listings.

• Sellers gain a personalized property valuation, real-time insights into neighborhood trends, and access to Compass’ proprietary 3-Phased Marketing Strategy, crafted to maximize exposure and drive value.

During the Transaction

When your home goes into contract, Compass One becomes the central hub for managing the entire process.

• Your agent keeps you informed with timely updates on milestones, important dates, outstanding tasks, and document uploads—all in one organized location.

• The platform ensures nothing is missed and that you remain confident and in control from contract to close.

After the Transaction

Even after the deal is done, Compass One continues to serve as a powerful resource.

• Clients can revisit and download important documents, stay connected with their agent, and receive ongoing updates on the market.

• Whether you're seeking homeownership advice or planning your next move, Compass One keeps you engaged and empowered long after closing day.

Solving Real Estate Pain Points

The traditional real estate process is often fragmented, with limited visibility, scattered documentation, and unclear communication. Compass One addresses these pain points by:

• Centralizing information in one place

• Offering real-time updates

• Enabling continuous collaboration between agents and clients

This simplifies the journey and helps eliminate the stress and uncertainty that often accompany buying or selling a home.
