About
Pick the life first. Then the home.
Most home sites start with a price and a map. Pinned starts with how you want to spend your weekends, then shows you the places in Canada and the USA that fit, and the local people who can help you move there.
Who it's for
- People moving between Canada and the USA, in either direction.
- Remote workers and young buyers choosing a place for the lifestyle, not the commute.
- Snowbirds and anyone trading winter for sun, or a city for the mountains.
What you can do today
- Compare 157 places (52 in Canada, 105 in the USA) by weather, risks, drive times and cost of living.
- Take the lifestyle quiz or describe what you want in smart search.
- Follow the cross-border moving guide, with links to official sources.
- Contact licence-checked agents and moving services directly.
Where we are right now
Pinned is in soft launch. The place guides, tools and moving guide are live. Agents and moving businesses are joining now, so some places don't have anyone yet. We'd rather show an empty spot than fill it with made-up listings or profiles, so every agent, business and home you see here is real.
Full MLS home search is coming later. Until then, the homes here are posted by local agents with the seller's permission.
How we keep it trustworthy
✓ Licences checked
✓ No commission cuts
✓ Your details stay yours
How Pinned makes money
- Flat monthly subscriptions for agents and businesses (free for founding members while we grow).
- Clearly labelled advertising.
- Travel partner links on "Try before you move" trips, which may earn us a commission at no cost to you.
