The MLS doesn't record why a contract ends. In our experience the most common reasons are home inspection findings, appraisals that come in below the price, and buyer financing. How buyers paid on closed sales: conventional 17% · cash 10% · VA 53% · FHA 15%.
If you're selling
- Price it right from day one. Homes priced right sold in a median 29 days. The 35 that needed price cuts took a median 73 days and sold at 93.8% of first ask.
- Stay out of the $300–400K range if you can. It had the highest didn't-sell rate at 31%, compared with 13% for homes under $300K.
- Waiting costs money. Listings that never sold sat a median 63 days before they ended.
- Contracts fall apart about one in six times, at 18%. In general industry experience, that is most often inspection, appraisal or financing issues, so get ahead of those before you list. Homes that went back on the market after a fall-through sold 63% of the time, at a median 99 days.
If you're buying
- There is room to negotiate. 66% of homes sold below their first ask, and the median sold at 98.7% of first ask.
- Some homes sit. The listings that never sold had been on the market a median 63 days before they ended.
- Here is how buyers are paying: 53% VA, 17% conventional, 15% FHA and 10% cash.
