Hesitant sellers are at all price points and the lack of inventory is across the board.
There are many reasons sellers paused their plans to put their property on the market:

Not wanting people in their home during a pandemic
Unease about the economic impact about the pandemic
Feeling like it’s not a good time because of buyer demand
Mortgage Forebearance
