Could really screw things up if a chain of transactions depend on each other to go through such as contingencies to buy in order to sell, with 3 places contingent the middle person could end up with 2 mortgages. What is the highest order of contingencies realtors on here have heard of? I could definitely see why some people might have cold feet buying right now with prices high compared to the general economy, a little harder to understand why one wouldn’t want to sell.
