Some homes I see listed on realtor.com show status as "active." I assume these are ready for sale, with no strings attached.
But others are listed as:
Status: Act. Cont.
Status: Pending w/release
Status: Pending w/o release
... and googling hasn't solved the mystery to me of what these terms mean. Particularly the first one. I gather 'Act Cont.' refers to a contingency ... but I can't figure out what kind of contingency.
If you can enlighten me, I'll be grateful.
