30% – Issues related to obtaining financing
25% – Appraisal issues
16% – Home inspection/environmental issues
9% – Titling/deed issues
9% – Contract-related contingencies
The Takeaway:
Now that you know the issues that tend to delay contract closings, you can plan and prepare for them as you’re looking for homes—so when you’re ready to make a purchase, the process will move as quickly as possible.
