According to a recent National Association of REALTORS®’s article, HomeLight调查, and based on an increase in real estate dispute inquiries and mediations facilitated by this author, an increasing amount of buyers who won ‘bidding wars’ are backing out of their purchases, often (per the Seller) leaving the home in a less desirable position than when it was first listed and ‘red hot’, 并开启了存款纠纷的大门.
The National Association of REALTORS®’s reports some home buyers are backing out of purchase contracts due to second-guessing the contract price. That is prompting some listings to return to the market after a bidding war.
超过1的54%,100 real estate professionals recently surveyed by HomeLight, 一个房地产推荐网站, said they have seen or heard of buyers backing out of contracts after having regrets.
Our office has seen an increasing amount of deposit dispute mediations and legal inquiries involving cancelations. 同样的, while assisting clients to buy or sell real estate, 我们注意到取消的航班比以往任何时候都多. Sometimes to the detriment of the seller, but not always.
许多买家, frustrated with the current market and losing out on multiple offer situations, may head into a new bidding war with an all-in intent to win, 也许支付. “They win and for a moment they’re happy about it,” the report says. “But now they have several weeks to mull over their decision before the deal closes. They crunch the numbers again and experience pangs of regret over the ridiculous price they agreed to pay. They begin to obsess over flaws with the home that they initially overlooked.”
So then they approach their real estate agent, 或者365体育备用律师, 找个空子和出路. 即使已经放弃了意外事故, there may often be additional ways for buyers to legitimately back out of a deal. (Review our article and/or video on cancelations by clicking here.)
但一旦他们退出交易, 在某些情况下, “the house goes back on the market with a stigma that there’s something wrong with it,报告指出. Not to mention the obvious impact of losing out on that initial ‘hot home’ status and the first impression of buyers.
The trend is playing out more often as bidding wars for a limited number of houses have grown more commonplace.
取消航班也不全是坏消息, many patient buyers (and their persistent agents) stay in touch with listings and can often ‘swoop in’ to an existing escrow upon a cancelation. 这使得取消数据难以确定, as many listings do not actually appear back on the MLS (the seller may simply accept a new offer and move on to the next buyer, 不需要在线更新状态).
However, the price and terms of the new buyer’s offer may not be the same as before. We have seen and helped some of these ‘second buyers’ get better deals; but conversely, we have seen ‘second buyers’ pay more than the original buyer!
这完全取决于当地市场, but there’s no doubt a cancelation is exceedingly frustrating for sellers.
