How KNOCK works

A gentler way to buy the home you actually want.

Ten steps. Owners stay in control at every one of them. Speculative interest is always shown as exactly that.

Interest vs. intention

Buyer interest

An offer on KNOCK is speculative. It says “I'd love to buy this”, not “this is for sale”.

Sale intention

Only a verified owner can signal openness, and only an accepted offer starts a transaction.
