I would like to know if I can pause one of my listings and re-activate it in 2 months.
The Active listings can be paused (marked temporarily off) and can be re-activated on the MLS. However, there are certain things you should know:
Pausing is MLS-specific:
Some MLSs provide you an option to pause the listing for particular days. Some may allow you to pause it for 2 months. It is suggested to check the MLS regulations before making any decision.
The pause will not Exceed Expiration:
Please be informed that when you mark your property as temporarily off the market, and it meets the expiration date of the listing, it will be automatically marked as expired by the MLS. Ensure to update the status promptly whenever necessary.
Total Listing Duration:
Pausing your listing doesn't extend the total time it's considered "on the market." For example, if you list your home for 6 months and pause it for 2 months, it will still be considered a 6-month listing, not an 8-month listing.
Updating the status on Houzeo Dashboard:
