Cribbed was born from the belief that with the right tools, anyone can sell their home independently, saving on costly commissions while enjoying a more rewarding experience. It removes the barriers that once made DIY-selling difficult. Sellers know their home best but lacked the ability to market it professionally. Buyers, already searching for homes, had no way to access them without an agent. Cribbed bridges this gap by offering the same tools top agents use for luxury properties to everyone. Sellers and buyers connect directly on the platform, benefiting from powerful search features, simple portals, and automated guidance, all while cutting out the unnecessary middlemen and conflicting agendas.

How it works: Cribbed packages include professional photos, floor plans, 360° tour, for sale sign installation, disclosures, contracts, in-home materials (lock box, shoe covers, etc.). Cribbed partners with leading companies like DocuSign, First American Title, Great Schools, photography networks, and more to offer a seamless, end-to-end experience with AI-powered tools and expert service. Our trusted partners—including DocuSign, First American Title, Great Schools, and cutting-edge AI tools—ensure a seamless, end-to-end process.

Founded by Heidi, whose background spans a successful career in marketing and residential real estate, Cribbed is driven by her mission to provide an alternative to the current model of over-paid agents. The platform is built on her expertise, best practices, and data-driven strategies to get your home sold effectively.

Working directly with the home seller, who was selling their house through Cibbed.com, was a pleasant experience. This direct interaction was beneficial for me as the buyer. I didn't have to deal with a real estate agent as a middleman; instead, I communicated directly with the seller. Our communication was excellent, and everything went smoothly.

We were happy to be one of Cribbed’s first buying customers earlier this year. The experience was great, in the sense that it was quite simple. We’ve bought and sold close to a dozen homes in our lives, and it’s always been an overly complicated, convoluted, and unnecessarily emotional process. ... Buyers and sellers end up needlessly arguing through their realtors, who behind your backs, are just laughing at how ridiculous you are. With Cribbed, we communicated directly with the seller and everything went incredibly smoothly. Both parties can be open, honest, and flexible while still following through with all of the usual processes. We got all the inspections we needed and were even able to adjust our close date since everything was ready earlier than expected. In the traditional real estate world, a simple change like that would’ve involved bickering and fighting over email for days between real estate agents. We’re glad to have found our home through Cribbed. It was the least stressful real estate transaction we’ve ever done. Read More Read Less

Finally, an all-inclusive online platform solution that helped me list my $1.25 million home and sell on my own. In my neighborhood the homes sell themselves, so I saved nearly $71,000 avoiding real estate commissions. Homeowners like myself do the work so I wanted to pay myself. ... I liked Cribbed’s low down payment cost and the rest is paid at closing. Great Value for money invested. All you need is there so go to Cribbed.com and start selling on your own like I did !!!
