Trying to use BP Marketplace, but everything is already sold?

Are the real estate listing on BP still being maintained? When browsing the listings we see a LOT of properties that say "For Sale over 1 yr ago." And when we then search on Zillow they've all been sold (sometimes over a year ago). Is there a filter we're missing or a way to see only active postings? We're looking in the Columbus, OH area and even the newest posting (about 1 month ago) is off market according to Redfin. We're new BP pro members just beginning our real estate investing adventure, and we were hoping BP would be a trust worthy place to find interesting leads (we know - trust but verify - always do your own research). So far, however, everything we've seen is either no longer on the market or a foreclosure that requires a separate paid subscription (maybe those are already sold too?). Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you @Remington Lyman. Getting connected with an agent is on our short list of things to do. At this point we're trying to analyze many different properties to start getting an idea of what makes a good deal. We didn't expect every listing on BP to be a winner but were a bit disappointed to see that none of them even seem to still be available.  May be DM you when we're ready to begin working with an agent?

Usually by time a deal hits BP its been on the market or circulated to off-market buyers for a period of time so they won't be available for very long on BP marketplace in my experience.
