Nearly 1 in 7 Home Sales Are Falling Through, a Record For This Time of Year (dating back to 2017)
Home-purchase agreements are canceled at the highest rate in San Antonio, where sellers outnumber buyers two to one–giving buyers the upper hand and plenty of choices.
Nearly 40,000 home-sale agreements nationwide were canceled in January, equal to 13.7% of homes that went under contract that month. That’s up from 13.1% a year earlier, and the highest January share in records dating back to 2017.
