Property listing sites that show whether under contract or active
Murdoch has killed realtor.com. Not only does it now run so slowly as to be virtually useless, it has lost the only advantage it had over Zillow and Trulia. It used to show status - whether a property was "active" or "under contract". This was the only feature it had that was useful, that Zillow or Trulia did not have. I don't know if Redfin has it or not, but Redfin doesn't cover my area.
Does anyone know any other way to search for properties that are not under contract? I have found most of our properties without using a buyer's realtor. Sometimes we wind up with a better deal if we are able to use the seller's agent as a dual agent. But now, I don't see how we can search for properties that are not yet under contract, short of working with a realtor. I hate doing that, because I usually know better than them what it is that I'm looking for.
