expired means that the length of the listing contract has ended.(determined prior to listing between the realtor and client but often 3-6 months). You may see expired listings come back on the market in a short period of time or never again. In the case of a foreclosure they will almost always come back as the bank needs to sell. A homeowner may change their mind and wait it out when they realize the price they want is not realistic.
Pet approval is typically a condition I will put into the contract similar to financing or condo document review. We make sure the condo board has put in writing that your pet(s) are approved should you buy this place and go from there. Should the pet be denied you can walk from the deal with no fall out.
