Home sellers are giving up at 'unusually high rate,' says new Realtor report [View all]

Key Points

- Home delistings in October were up 45.5% year to date and up nearly 38% from October 2024, according to a new report from Realtor.com.

- More potential buyers are heading to what Realtor.com calls "refuge markets," cities like Grand Rapids, Michigan, and St. Louis, where home prices are lower.

- Canceled purchase agreements are also on the rise, now well above pre-pandemic levels.

I think it really should be "Home buyers are leaving the market until conditions improve"
