* Tracking pending sales is great way to see what's happening NOW!  But, is a bit unreliable due to the % of sales that don't ulitmately close.  Primary reasons that a sale wouldn't close: inspection/repair issues, buyer unable to obtain financing, and a low appraisal.  That's when an experienced agent is invaluable.
