The “Real” Real Estate Minute: Active Under Contract vs Pending

Both mean the seller accepted an offer.

Active under contract means contingencies are still being worked through. The seller may still allow showings and accept a backup offer.

Pending means the deal is further along. Showings usually stop, and the parties are moving toward closing.

The opportunity is usually in active under contract listings.

Short and Sweet - I hope this cured your curiosity.
