Buy a Home Without a Realtor —
The Smarter Way

Buying a home is one of the biggest decisions of your life. Reboo helps you do it your way — no agents, no commission, no pressure. Just honest conversations with real sellers, and a step-by-step process that puts you in control

Why Buy Without a Realtor?

  • You're still paying the commission — even if it feels “free.”

    In Canada, sellers typically pay the buyer’s agent’s commission. But that cost is built into the sale price — which means you’re still covering it, whether you realize it or not. Reboo helps eliminate that hidden cost.

  • Talk directly to sellers.

    Message the actual owner. Ask questions. Book showings. It’s faster, more personal, and you get the real story — not a sales pitch.

  • Stay in the driver’s seat.

    Pick the homes you want to see, when you want to see them. Make offers, negotiate in-app, and know exactly where your deal stands at all times.

  • No deals behind closed doors.

    Traditional realtors negotiate out of sight — and their goal is often to get the highest possible price (because that’s how they get paid). With Reboo, you deal directly with the property owner. No pressure. No second-guessing. Just transparent communication and real-time negotiations you control.

How Buying with Reboo Works — Step by Step

Step 1:
Browse Homes Across Canada

Search properties by location, price, and style — all within the app. No agents. No logins. No pressure.

Step 2:
Message Sellers Directly

Got questions? Chat with the seller in real time. No go-betweens, no filtered answers.

Step 5:
Finalize with a Lawyer or Notary

A legal professional will review the documents, register the title, and handle closing. You stay in full control the entire time.

Step 3:
Book a Viewing

Use our in-app calendar to schedule an in-person tour — on your time, directly with the seller.

Don’t forget:
Get an Independent Appraisal

Lenders typically require an appraisal when no realtor is involved. Speak to your specific lender for confirmation.

Step 4:
Make an Offer Through the App

Like what you see? Submit an offer through Reboo. Negotiate openly and securely. Once accepted, the app generates a Contract of Purchase and Sale — ready to take to your lawyer or notary.
