Changing/Firing Realtor

Hi all, looking for some insight here. My wife and I have been trying to sell our house for over 40 days now with no luck. We've had close to 30 showings but no offers. We've had multiple second showings for different interested buyers.

All in all, I don't think our realtor is doing a good enough job. This complicates things as our realtor is one of my close friend's mothers. But, that's not going to be a deciding factor here.

My question is: are we locked into some contract with a realtor? Do we owe money to said realtor if we break our contract and sign with a different realtor? I know there is probably additional paperwork with these answers, but I'm having a hard time coming up with it. I'm more wondering what a general contract for a realtor-seller looks like.

​

Also, what is best practice here? And how would you suggest I go about this in order to maintain civility? This must happen often to realtors.

Thanks!

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...

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/
