What to know before investing in private credit

Homebuyers are backing out of deals at the fastest pace since 2017
> CNBC: Homebuyers are backing out of deals at the fastest pace in nearly a decade.
> More than 40,000 signed home purchase agreements were canceled in December, or 16.3% of all contracts, the highest rate since Redfin began tracking in 2017.
> Cancellations are rising as high prices, affordability pressures, and growing inventory give buyers more leverage and more reason to walk away.
> The market is increasingly tilted toward oversupply. In December there were about 47% more home sellers than buyers, roughly 631,000 more sellers, the largest gap on record. Pending home sales also fell 9% month over month, signaling weak closed sales ahead for January and February.
> Atlanta had the highest cancellation rate at 22.5%, followed by Jacksonville, San Antonio, Cleveland, and Tampa. Cancellations were lowest in the New York metro area and parts of Northern California.
> Economic uncertainty, mortgage rates, and affordability concerns are driving both cautious buyers and anxious sellers, creating a fragile housing market heading into early 2026.
