Format: Original byline article
Published: March 2026
Scott Sylvan Bell examines why 30 to 50 percent of signed LOIs never reach the closing table — and makes the case that deal fatigue, not valuation disagreements, is the quiet force killing deals that should have closed. The article covers warning signs, prevention strategies, and why preparation long before a buyer arrives is the only reliable cure.
