Buying things is normally a pretty straightforward exchange: a seller puts a price on something, a buyer pays the price, and the seller gives the thing to the buyer. Of course, real estate doesn’t work quite so simply. There’s often more than one potential buyer in the mix, prices get negotiated, and even when a buyer and seller agree to terms, the house may not be sold.

At a glance, when a home is listed as “pending,” that means the home is in the final stages of a sale.
