The weird way, and the CLOSR way.

A home is the biggest thing most of us ever buy, yet buyers and sellers rarely talk and every step goes through someone else. We’re building a direct way to do it, in one place.

  1. 01Call someone, who calls someone, who asks the owner.Ask the owner.
  2. 02Phone tag. On a Saturday. For a showing.Request a time. The owner confirms.
  3. 03Guess what to ask, then forget half of it.Get the questions worth asking.
  4. 04Offers in email threads and voicemails.One thread. Every version kept.

Whichever side you’re on.

For buyers

Like the house? Talk to the owner.

See the home, the numbers and the questions worth asking — then ask the person who lives there.

  • Size, features and an estimated mortgage payment on the listing
  • Sellers pass an ID check, and a person at CLOSR reviews each listing before it’s published
  • Your own lawyer takes it from signed offer to keys

For sellers

Know your house? Talk to the buyers.

You’ve lived here for years. List it yourself, approve each showing, and keep every offer in one thread.

  • Buyers pass an ID check before they book a showing or make a formal offer
  • Set your offer standard up front: price floor, minimum deposit, financing proof
  • No agent commission built in. At 7% on the first $100,000 and 3% on the rest, a $500,000 sale pays $19,000 before GST — an example structure; rates are negotiable

Questions

Good questions.

Yes, in Calgary. Download the app to browse real homes. Outside Calgary, leave your email and we’ll tell you when CLOSR opens in your area.

It’s software for buying and selling a home directly: listings, verification, messages, showings, offers and one record of the deal. CLOSR isn’t a brokerage and doesn’t act as anyone’s agent.

CLOSR is designed around each side having their own lawyer. Once an offer is signed, your lawyer handles title and closing.

No. CLOSR doesn’t build an agent commission into the transaction. For scale: at 7% on the first $100,000 and 3% on the rest, a $500,000 sale pays $19,000 in commission before GST. That’s an example structure; commission rates are negotiable.

Yes, it’s your choice — an agent, an inspector, a mortgage broker. If you bring one, you agree their fee with them directly. CLOSR never adds a commission to the price.

No. CLOSR shows the listing’s details and the questions worth asking. For a formal valuation, talk to an appraiser or your lender. What you offer stays your call.
