One thing I haven’t seen mentioned :

When you sell a house, you negotiate a price with the buyer. If they use a bank, the bank gets to appraise the house and decide how much they will lend. If their appraiser decides it isn’t worth what you agreed to, all of a sudden you have to take less from the buyer or find another whose bank is willing to lend them more.
