New Consumer Guide: Overcoming Roadblocks to a Sale or Purchase
Signing a purchase agreement is an exciting milestone in any real estate transaction. But even after an offer is accepted, there are still several steps between contract and closing day. In today’s market, about 5% of home purchase transactions fall through before closing, according to a recent REALTORS® Confidence Index Survey.
Many of the most common issues can be anticipated and managed with the right preparation and professional guidance. Understanding these potential pitfalls can help keep your transaction on track.
Financing Problems Can Derail a Deal
One of the most common reasons a transaction falls apart is financing. A buyer may be pre-approved for a mortgage, only to face a denial before closing.
This can happen for several reasons, including:
- A drop in credit score
- Taking on new debt, such as buying a car
- A job change or reduction in income
- Changes in lending guidelines or loan terms
