Time served--not!

Posted by Andrew Caffrey July 16, 2007 01:45 PM

Interesting discussion underway in southern California, where the local MLS service has removed days-on-market data from its property listings. In down times, such as now, a big days-on-market number can give a house the odor of a loser. The flip side are suspiciously short days-on-market data--are brokers pulling stale homes off the listings, and then relisting to make it appear a new offering? The Orange County Register has coverage of the matter here. Kudos to the bloggers at Inman News for watching.
