US Home Sales Falling

 Newsweek -  Real estate agents are reporting a growing number of prospective buyers backing out of home sales, reflecting the challenges faced by sellers in the 2025 market.

According to HomeLight’s newly released "Top Agents Insight Report," 62 percent of the country’s leading real estate agents said they had witnessed an uptick in sales falling through compared to the same period last year, with 22 percent saying that “significantly more” buyers are pulling out of purchases at the last minute.

Among the reasons for the deals falling apart, agents cited inspection issues, financing difficulties, as well as a significant number who got “cold feet.”
