Overall, sellers satisfied with the selling process

By Greg Stitz, OAR Director of Research

Eighty-five percent of home sellers in Ohio report satisfaction with the process of selling their home. It’s worth nothing that 83 percent of the sellers used a real estate agent to assist them in selling their home and that 84 percent of them indicated they would definitely or probably use their agent again.

The most common reasons for selling a home were:

  • Home too small – 19%
  • Job relocation – 15%
  • Neighborhood became less desirable – 14%
  • Want to move closer to friends/family – 12%
  • Marriage/divorce/birth of child – 11%
  • Home too large – 11%

This information was included in the National Association of REALTORS 2012 Profile of Home Buyers and Sellers, Ohio Report.
