are there any online resources people know of to look up a house list time on, say realestate.com.au or domain etc if I haven't been watching a market for long but want to know how stale houses might be?
On www.realestate.com you can arrange the search by "latest listing". This gives a rough idea by scrolling back through the listings arranged by date.
Be mindful that listing date can be misleading if the property went under contract that subsequently did not proceed as this will mean the property was off the market for 14-21 days or possibly longer.
