I suppose there are lots of reasons for a property to go off the market and come back without having sold. I don't know if offers that fall through show up in the history for example.

I bought in the weird time where if a house was on the market for more than a week there was something wrong with it.

What country are you in? Never heard of realestate.com and it doesn't even come up on Google.

Is the problem with the word "listing"? Would it be more accurate if I say "the webpage you look at when a house is for sale"?

Thanks for your edit. (And for editing the URL to add the .au). It turns out it's not a website difference -- it's a COUNTRY difference. I apologize for not realizing you were not familiar with how the US real estate market works.

It's wrong for me to be US-centric, but it's incredibly bizarre for you to assume that Australia is the country we're all talking about.

I learned in high school that doing everything at the last minute stresses me out and I did a shittier job. I forced myself to finish projects early, I’d have more time to polish them before they were due, I felt good about myself and way less anxious.

Once you have a deadline for a project/assignment etc just act like that deadline is a week earlier. Obviously only works for “big” projects that you know of in advance but those are often a huge source of stress.

Honestly the glamorization of procrastination/slackerism vs being methodical and organized in a boring way has probably needlessly stressed out a lot of people.

I would have liked a few spring and summer pictures but mostly because I know that there are a ton of bulbs planted, mystery trees and tantalizing hints and I want to know what my garden is going to look like so I can plan "my" garden. I'm going to have to wait a year just to figure out wtf I'm working with... (Gardener problems, not 100% applicable)
