Thanks for everyone's replies. I called the EA to check the position and they've assured me the house is 'off the market' and if anyone else enquires about it they're being advised a sale is going through. Happy now!! :j0

They would tell people its under offer and probably take the other interested parties details, just in case the current offer falls thro.0 -
My new house remained on Rightmove as SSTC for 5 weeks after completion. I assumed the EA was looking for a 'presence' making them appear busy and successful. Maybe they just didn't get round to taking it off.0

Rightmove define "under offer" and "SSTC" as being two different things, but it's down to individual EAs to know this, understand this and do it. When you look through RM and see flats listed as houses, hotels for sale listed as 16 bed houses, bits of land with planning permission listed as the house you could build there ... you can see that they're not actually bright enough to use the system.0
