From what I can tell, it's a problem on this website that advertisements that are no longer available often stay listed. That may be what the OP was actually trying to discern.
There are several homes for sale still listed that I saw on Zillow or Realtor.com as having transacted many weeks or months ago. I emailed TOTV about the many stale listings but, they didn't reply back. I even messaged a couple of those sellers suggesting they remove their ad if the property is no longer available. But, their ads are still live.
Shaking my head...there has to be a better way. Maybe all ads should expire in 30 days - then it's up to the lister to repost them. Also, a pet peeve, almost ZERO of the Classified listings have the DATE of POSTING included in them. What are people thinking? Frankly, TOTV should require a posting date which is very helpful to those searching.
