When searching on KW websites, consumers should automatically be able to see listings that are PENDING SALE, not just ACTIVE ones.

Our competitors do NOT rely on a Pending filter to show the same info (check out Zillow & Howard Hanna - they make it easy). Therefore we are making our site less valuable to consumers and our agents.

• Agents want calls on their Pending listings to capture leads.
• Buyers want to easily find data on houses they drive by, regardless of their status.
• Sellers want to be able to search quick selling houses to find out which agent accomplished that

NOTE: As someone who recently purchased a house, I wanted to be able to drive around and see info regarding listings near me, even if they are pending (as long as they are labeled as such) so I know what it was listed for and what features it had. That was especially helpful in neighborhoods I didn't know as well. If I didn't have direct access to the MLS I would have used Zillow instead of the KW app because it is more intuitive & helpful, and that's not cool, especially since it sends buyers to Zillow Premier Agents rather than listing agents.

I have been told Pending Listings will show up if the filter is adjusted, but I will add that by definition, a filter is primarily intended to narrow down a search, not expand it.
