Over a Year To Close Normal?

James Ritter
  • Glen Cove, NY
Posted

Hello Everybody,

I found a property that I would like to make an offer on but it seems that they are already under contract.

The contract is public and is signed from March of 2014 (A Year and 9 months ago) yet the property still seems to be in the original owner name.

My questions are

Is it worth it to send a letter to this owner expressing interest in purchasing their property since the home did not close yet?

Should I assume that since it has been almost two years since contract that for some reason it fell through?

Thank you very much
