Common reasons that MLS listings get de-listed

I wanted to follow up on today's <a href="http://www.irvinehousingblog.com/forums/viewthread/5994/">Woodbridge Flipper thread</a>... What are some of the common and uncommon reasons certain properties get taken off the MLS...



I have followed 12 listings this year of a tract in Woodbury, here are the breakdowns:



Four - have closed or are closing as short sales



Three - are organic sales



Three - has been de-listed (short/organic), one particular house was empty when listed and suddenly got de-listed; people moved in a couple of week afterward; it came on the market again, but was taken off a few days later...



There is also one house where it has been de-listed for more than a year, but the lawn sign is still there! It's been there all year...



One - Is currently on the market



I can understand that certain owners might have changed their minds. But what about the empty short sales? Is it a good idea to continue to keep an eye on the de-listed property? Is there anyway to see if those de-listed houses were sold? The premise behind this thread is similar, from a future buyers stand point; are there unconventional (Trustee Deed) sales were the general public are at a disadvantage as far as being able to see and put in a fair offer? Where no public records were recorded of the transaction?



I'll PM addresses if needed...
 
I often see <a href="http://www.redfin.com/CA/Fullerton/508-Jacaranda-Pl-92832/home/3179761">this</a> house pop up in my MLS listings. It's like listed and delisted every freaken week. I'm so curious the reason behind this.

Brand new listing to avoid the impression of it sitting on the market for a long time.



A couple made up 11 times but decided to finally moving forward with a divorce.

I feel it doesn't exhibit the typical pattern of sellers that try to do that. I've never seen someone list, delist, relist every few days.

Oh no_vas! Did you get a new puppy? Seriously, everyone will think twice before they think you are a tough guy now. Hard to argue with the cute, fluffy little poodle guy.

Bleh... no_vas and his sissy dogs. My dog would eat his dogs, and eat no_vas too. Hit refresh to see my new avatar. My dog eats the metros (t-man) as an appetizer.

IR2 told me the reason for a similar listing is that they owners were negotiating with the bank for a workout.

Looks like the same for this one...

<em>Priv Rmks SHORT SALE! Purchase Price & Commission Subject To Lender Approval. Any Reduction In Commission Will Be Split Equally Between Listing & Selling Agents. Please Submit Pre-Approval Letter and Proof of Funds. Seller Reserves All Services. The Deck and Patio Cover Will Be Removed. There Are Multiple Offers For This Property. Thank You For Showing! </em>



Also, you can only have a property "On Hold" for a limited time (14 days), until it defaults back to "Active" status.

Good luck,

IR2
 
I guess this is the follow-up question then... why are some properties on Hold - Do Not Show status? What does that tell about the sales process?
