Why are sold listings appearing in my search results?

Listings come from over 40 property websites, from the large portal sites like domain.com.au, owner seller sites like gumtree or buymyplace.com.au and agent sites like Ray White.
 
Unfortunately, if an agent or owner leaves a property listing on one of the portals after it has sold there is no way we can remove the listing from the internet as we are not the listing website.
 
To view newer listings only and reduce properties that have potentially sold, you can use the Listing Age filter so the results only return recent listings.
 
  1. In Investar Search, click on "More property-specific options".
  2. Under "Listing Age", set the "Max" filter" to a timeframe such as 1 week.
