The market told us two things.
First: people struggle to picture their dream home, or even believe a move is possible for them — but they'd know it if they saw it. That's a hard problem when so few homes are ever listed for sale at once.
Second: even when they can picture it, they get stuck on feasibility — where, what, when. The frozen assumption is that a home is either "for sale" or "not for sale." It's not binary. Every home sits somewhere on a continuum of conditional availability — its owner would move, if the right next home showed up.
Kovera is built differently from a search engine on two counts: we map that conditional availability across every home in Essex County, not just public listings — and we proactively ask each homeowner the one question that unlocks it: "What would you move for?"
See where we think you'd move to. It's free, it's private, and it takes about 60 seconds:
See the homes near you that you could actually move for — including ones that aren’t for sale anywhere else. Free for homeowners. Takes about a minute.
