Our story

# Built by pool pros, for pool pros.

We watched too many friends pay 10% commissions to brokers who did 10% of the work. So we built the alternative, a clean, modern marketplace where owners and buyers find each other directly.

### Owner-first

The marketplace is free for owners. Always has been, always will be.

### Direct connection

No middlemen. Buyers and sellers talk directly from the first message.

### Modern tools

Calculators, learning, and templates that take the guesswork out of the deal.

## Our promise

Listing is free. It will always be free. We make money, eventually, on optional premium features for brokers and high-volume sellers. Owner listings stay free, forever.

List your route (https://poolroutemarketplace.com/list-route)

### Ownership & licensing

Pool Route Marketplace is owned and operated by **Pool Route Marketplace LLC**. The marketplace platform, the POOLFAX verification methodology, and related intellectual property are licensed from **COL323 Global Holdings LLC**. Pool Duck Franchising LLC operates as an optional, separately-branded scaling path for marketplace participants.
