When a house goes into contract, how soon would that be listed on MLS or Redfin?

Wondering if a house we're eyeing went into contract or not.

It takes about 2-3 weeks for agents to remove a listing from mls after an accepted offer. It then takes about 60 days for it show up as closed.

redfin seems way quicker

our real estate agent called on a house and was told it was in the inspection period, "almost" in contract.
a week later it showed on redfin
a couple weeks later it was still showing on mlsli for sale

As soon as the agent updates MLS it gets updated on Redfin. I don't know about other websites b/c that's what I use. But, from the time an offer is accepted, inspection happens, negotiating takes place, contracts go out, changes happen, contracts are signed and deposit is put down, it can be 1-2 weeks. The buyers are incentivized to move as quickly as possible since the sellers can accept another offer until they're in contract. So if MLS doesn't show it as In Contract (Redfin says Pending), then the house is still probably being shown. You can always call and ask. Any reputable agent will let you know if an offer is already accepted and/or they are still accepting back up offers.

My brother went to contract on his house and the house he is buying on the same day. Both houses came off of MLS within 24 hours
