San Diego Housing Bubble News and Analysis

I use SDL and Redfin. HOWEVER, lately there are listings that do NOT show up on SDL or Redfin, BUT they do show up on Houserebate.

MW on SDL told me about Houserebate and sure enough there are listings that are active for weeks that are NOT showing up on SDL and SDR here on Piggs confirmed it is not a mistake and they are active listings. It is much more than just a couple a month. Every day there's anywhere from 2 to 8 listings that are not showing up on SDL - and that's just the ZIPs we're watching.

All of the above are good but try doing it old school on a Sunday drive around the areas you are interested in.

Even if you don't see any signs. Pay close attention to the banks posted letters in the windows or doors.

I was trying to find an awesome home I saw yesterday. It just appeared on my Sandicor feed and does not show up on REDFIN. I have my doubts about REDFIN.

I like zip's website. But I don't like the company.

Does it show up on Houserebate?

I used Redfin b/c SDL does not show multiple unit listings. Otherwise, up until now, I really liked SDL.

Hi jpinpb,

At Redfin we're pretty obessed about making sure we have all the homes for sale.

So I'm curious, what's the address of the listing we're missing?

If you ever find a listing missing you can email us at techsupport [at] redfin [dot] com and we'll find out why. Or you can reach me directly at matt [dot] goyer [at] redfin [dot] com.

Now that's customer service!

I'm going to get on it and make my list and email it over.

J,

Feel free to send them the ones i sent you. i did not check to see if these were on redfin. But in the past when SDL did not have them, redfin did not have them, but houserebate would!

Are there any sites that are useful for those of us searching in the Temecula / Murrieta areas? I use redfin and realtor.com. I just looking for more sources for houses as the come on the market.

My wife and I have noticed that some of the listings received from a realtor using Sandicor were less expensive than the same listings on Redfin. It would also be nice if price/sf could be used as one of the search criteria rather than just being able to sort by it after a search.

I emailed Redfin, but got no reply. These are listings that show up on Houserebate, but I was unable to find them on SDL or Redfin. Though I haven't had a chance to check today.

Sorry, our product management team who also doubles as our tech support team is understaffed at the moment and is having a hard time keeping up with tech support emails.

What I think is going on in this case is that a few weeks ago Sandicor made a change that increased the number of "agent only listings". Unfortunately we can't show these listings on the Internet. We're a little concerned by the sudden up-tick in these and are digging into it to better understand it. When we do I'll post something in the forums here.

Matt - Redfin

Matt, can you please clarify what "agent only listings" means. I agree there has been a great increase in the number of these homes (whether they are agent only listings or something else). SDL has been having the issue for at least 6 weeks if not longer.

This may be a fluke, but I just found a house on Homerebate that was not on the listings with Redfin or SDL. Checked the sold list on SDL and there it was...

What I mean is that listings are flagged by the agent so that they don't show up on sites like Redfin or SD Lookup but do appear on the agent-only MLS site.
