Seeing properties which used to be on RightMove?

I'm sure I read somewhere about a website where you could see properties that used to be on RightMove, but had been removed from the market. Anyone got any ideas how I can find this info please?

It is on RM. You'll need the postcode of the property and then choose from the top menu (thick blue area) House Prices, Price Comparison Report.

Thank you, that was what I wanted. I see it also shows separately if a house has been at different prices historically, which is also good to know.

I believe what it shows you is the last price it was when it was removed from the market. If you can see it twice, at different prices, this would indicate they changed agents. If, say, a house were on there twice at £240k and £220k then it might be that it started at £280k, was reduced to £270k, then £265k, then £250k, then £240k, then removed from the market and put with another agent at £240k, then £235k, then £230k, then £220k, before they finally gave up and it was either removed or sold.

Another website to look at is home.co.uk - that shows historical price information for houses which come up on a search.

Google the address, and sometimes google's cached version of a particular property will still be accessible even though it's been removed from the current version of the website.

i must be missing someting here, im trying to find historical information for a house i found today which i know has been on before but at a much lower price, but ive found it on home.co.uk and cant see how to find out previous information for it. it ssays it has been on for 6 days only. im pretty sure it was on for about a year, then taken off and now put on for 40k more!!!
