Pending Home Sales - See what's selling NOW!

We recently just launched a new, interactive pending homes map that shows homes that have just gone under contract and are pending in sale from brokerages throughout the U.S. This map shows homes that have gone off the market in the past one to two days from all brokerages in the markets ZipRealty serves, as well as the last five homes sold nationwide.

If you want to get a snapshot of what's selling NOW, check this out. You no longer need to wait 30 or 45 days to see if a home actually sold or not.
