- A staggering 89% of homeowners have regrets about their home sale.
- The most common regrets cited were:
- 30% felt they sold too quickly.
- 29% missed their old home.

- Among sellers who didn’t use a listing agent:

- 46% made legal mistakes during their sale.
- 43% felt buyers didn’t trust them.
