New York City's competitive real estate market is apparently leaving out a growing number of people looking to sell their homes, according to a new survey.that more than one in three sellers in the five boroughs were taking their homes off the market without finding a buyer,. Sellers were also more likely to get stressed about putting a home on the market than most other major life events, like planning a wedding , finding a job or getting a root canal .
There are a myriad of reasons why a seller may remove a listing before the home sold that have little to nothing to do with how it performed on the market,. It may have to do with how tricky the city's market dynamics are, deciding not to sell after all, or other personal reasons.
