I believe it's mentioned early on that demonic possession is pretty rare. I think this was the first one Sam and Dean ever personally encountered. It makes sense because Hell is said to be pretty difficult to escape. It's also not a place you want to go back to, so most demons would probably keep a low profile. Possessing a member of a hunter family, one of the few types of people that know how to get rid of you, is kind of the opposite of a low profile.

Obviously, this changes later on and possession becomes almost ridiculously commonplace, but it jives with the fact that the bad guys want more soldiers on the ground.

For more specific spoilers, Yellow-Eyes probably forbade anyone from messing with them too much because he has plans involving Sam.
