Can someone tell me how Rightmove works? | Mumsnet (2024)

I have been following a particular property which went under offer in August. It is the one that got away. I have badgered the EA about it enough to know that as of a week ago the vendors still had not found somewhere to buy and as a result had not given the go ahead for their solicitor to issue contracts.
I still pined looked at it online though just in case.
The same for another house which is above our max budget and DH refuses to even look at it, as of Friday it was still there (I keep checking in case the asking price comes down!).
Now they have both completely disappeared online - not on the agent's website or Rightmove.
Is this an automatic thing? Or would the vendor/ buyers have requested this?

Similarly, our house is still up as SSTC - should we ask for ours to be taken off too? Or will it come off automatically? Some seem to be SSTC for ages - I just don't understand how it works.

Are there any advantages to having it on Rightmove as showing under offer? For the agent I assume but not for us? If this sale falls through and we relist in a couple of months won't that look bad?
