Real estate agent is trying to steal my house

As the title describes, I got a real estate agent and signed a 6 month contract to sell my house. My house sits on an acre in San Diego, California, it has 5 bedrooms and panoramic views through out the house. The house is valued at 650k, this real estate agent who I signed with 4 months ago to sell my house was telling me that there was multiple people who were interested in purchasing my home, he began to tell me that because my home is in bad condition because of landscaping and a few other minor things he said he can sell my house for 450k to an investor that HE knew and that he also had a friend who could also offer me 450k as well. I come to find out that this real estate agent has never even listed my house on MLS, Redfin, Zillow, realtor, or any websites saying that it was for sale. My house was not even listed on his real estate companies website that he works for. This real estate agent knows I have fallen on hard times and that my house is up for foreclosure very soon. He took advantage of my situation and pretty much hung me out to dry for 4 months. I confronted him about my house not being listed online for sale or not even having a sign outside my house and he never texted me back. I waited 30 mins and look up my house and see that he just posted my house for sale 30 mins ago on all the websites. He couldn’t have done this 4 months ago! he was trying to steal my house and make money off of my situation. Is there any legal action I can take against him? Should I call his company? It is a very reputable company. Is this legal for him to do something like this to me?

North Carolina – “One to Buy; Two to Sell”

I realize I will likely have to contact a real estate attorney but also hoping to hear insights and experiences from others! I have a house in NC that I bought by myself in 2009, and paid off, in full, in 2022. I got married in 2023. My spouse and I have not lived in the house as our "marital residence". We have maintained separate residences even after we got married. (That a separate topic!). I am now selling this house. Realtors have told us that my husband has to sign the deed at time of transfer but I am not convinced since the house has not been our marital residence. The realtors like to use the phrase "one to buy; two to sell", which seems like a broad-stroke statement which is not applicable under all circumstances. And of course, the realtors don’t realize the details of my specific circumstances: I purchased and paid for the house in full prior to marriage Only my name is on the deed And most importantly, we have never lived in the house as a marit...

Question With Tricon "Pending ID".....

My wife and i, along with 2 other peopl applied to rent a house, and our application says "Approved, Pending ID". Anyone else know what that means? Do we pretty much have the place or are we missing something? submitted by /u/Itskrueger [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/RealEstate/comments/1orixqj/question_with_tricon_pending_id/

Making offers on houses not listed for sale.

I want to buy a home for retirement. I am looking at lots of options, mostly focusing on the locations that appeal to me. I see lots of Zillow estimates of homes that look like great deals to me. Are these estimates accurate, even though similar houses in the same area that are for sale are usually priced much higher? If so, is it realistic for me to try to make offers to owners that do not have their homes listed? Would a realtor even consider helping me do this? Or, do these values indicate that the houses listed for sale are overpriced, and I should just lowball until someone accepts? Are houses today tending to sell far below list prices, or ??? submitted by /u/chewybrian [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/RealEstate/comments/1o4mcon/making_offers_on_houses_not_listed_for_sale/
