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 2% · cash 0% · VA 83% · FHA 10%.
If you're selling
- Price it right from day one. The 26 homes priced right sold in a typical 144 days. The 15 that needed price cuts took 169 days and sold at 94.4% of asking.

- Contracts fall apart about 1 in 15 times here, or 7%. The MLS doesn't record why. In general, it's most often inspection, appraisal or financing issues, so get ahead of repairs and line up solid paperwork before you list.
