When we rented out a property, or found out it was rented out already otherwise, we sometimes removed it from public
view in our database, or marked it as Rented. Nevertheless, please feel free to inquire for an update, because:

• Sometimes landlords do not update us when a property becomes available again. Keeping our huge database
  up to date completely is also not feasible, for many human reasons. Notably, leases often get extended
  whereby we may assume a place remains rented unless and until we are notified or find out otherwise.

• Competing agents have left already-rented properties displayed on their websites appearing as if still available,
  as just fishing hooks for customer inquiries, leading to customers revealing their contact info to salespeople
  in false hope (bait and switch) to get that particular property, which takes customers away from diligent agents who
  take down already-rented properties, so in 2012 we started to leave many properties up but noted as RENTED.

• A property may be part of a development of many identical houses/condos/apts whereby one represents them all.
  This is very common. We don't load and display all similar units of an apartment building or neighborhood.

• We may have different but similar properties for which we don't yet have photos uploaded. (See notes below.)

• There may have been recent inquiries about this property, so we announce it has been taken rather than just let
  the property disappear from our site and then leave people to search for it again in vain.

• Visitors may point to the property for a style they like, for people who want us to make recommendations for them.

Our selection of properties of potential interest to you can substantially exceed what is listed on our website.
We usually have many more, similar properties which we don't publicize or don't have photos.

Please understand that it is not feasible for us to present all rentals available at a particular time on our website due to the
need to keep many thousands of records up to date, especially for new properties whereby we must make an appointment
to gain access, go to survey, photograph (if owner allows), and upload all the properties, all within the rental turnover times.

Some of the best properties and values are taken quickly if we display them publicly, due to other agents
reviewing our website for updates, so we do not display some properties, and stopped featuring long ago.

We are informed of large numbers of new units, or newly available (vacated) ones, but because of the high volume of
photos and information, it is feasible to add only some fraction of those to our website, but we keep lots of
information and photos in our internal database and network.

Notably, after a property has been rented, most owners do not go back and update all the agents to inform them it has been
rented already, so normally there are properties not noted as rented but which have become unavailable

It is very common for clients to choose another property not shown on a website gallery, so citing an example of a unit you
like, regardless of rental status, can be a good thing, whereby real estate agents should try to understand your needs and
may guide you to the best place based on their experience.
