Being a bit of a computer geek I often look on the web at others sites and see things that are not accurate (actually sometimes mis-leading).

Recently I was looking at a local agents site and the listing said "Just Listed" as the status.

Just Listed

Well I have seen this home on the market awhile so I thought I would look in the MLS. The history in the MLS says that it has been on the market over 100 days!

Just Listed = 100+ days?

I do not think so....

Now this agent may just not be on top of things (very likely the case) but if you have information out there, as a professional, it seems that it is your responsibility to be sure the information is accurate...

Hi Charles....that's equivalent to MLS photos with snow on the ground in July.....if sellers only knew half of what goes on with the marketing of their homes.....I wonder how long those listing agents would still be in business.....

Sounds like the agent may have to many listings to do any of them justice!

Our MLS actuall ads all the days up but back in the day if you Just listed then it is a new listing as far as your concerned. The new listing agent should be penalized for the sins of the old listing agent.

Charles, Our board tracks and shows days on market from when it was first listed. I recently listed a home that a prior agent had listed. The sellers cancelled the listing with their agent and hired me.   Although I had just listed the property, the MLS showed the days on market from the date the prior agent listed it, which was in January 2011.  In my case, I did just list a property and it was over 200 days on the market according to our MLS.  Things are not always what they may appear to be.
