There's several houses for sale that have obviously been abandoned by the poster. When I check the poster, they haven't logged on for literally years. This makes the listings worthless for the legitimate sellers. Perhaps sales ads need to automatically expire after 30 days so this doesn't happen. At least anything a year old should be purged.

The site brags about how many active advertisements.

Just like number of posters................95% are not active for a year......bragging rights.

I contacted them about this very thing back in July and was told that the old ads are supposed to be deleted automatically after 60 days as stated at the top of the Classifieds page and was told they would look into it. Evidently, the investigation has not gone very far.
