Property For Sale Section Advert Clean Up - Check Your Ad

23rd October 2010

Over the past few weeks we have been contacted a couple of times by people to tell us properties have been sold even though the ad is still in the property section for sale.

This is due to a number of reasons and we have tightened up on dealing with contacts to remove ads. We still however have a number where it appears no contact has been made to remove the ad.

Our system has always been on the basis that the ad remained on the pages until sold. However in order to address the fact that there were many older ads we are in the process of deleting all ads for houses placed up to March 2009. If your ad was placed then and it is removed you can still place it again as a new ad. Just go to the submission form and re-enter your details.

We have not deleted plot ads or commercial premises but would appreciate if the ads could be checked to see they are still required. We will probably be checking these in the near future.

At present the system is still FREE to use although this is under review as the index requires some work due to its size these days. If a charge is introduced it will be very modest and still offer a lengthy period of advertising without recharge. But for now it remains FREE.

We hope you will understand that we are trying to ensure the ads are current and apologise if your ad was deleted and your property is still for sale. Just go and place another ad any time if your was one to be deleted due to its age.

Please do not place another ad if your ad is sill current as this causes us more time pressures.
