Not all homes that are listed sell. They might need too much work and are not priced right. Also, not all contracts that the seller accepts close. Some of them do not get passed home inspection and attorney review period. You need a good REALTOR® and real estate attorney that explains the process of the home inspection and expectations and can negotiate issues that come up.
