Home sale NO agent - help

After a long time of searching, my spouse and I finally found a great home and had our offer accepted. It is not contingent on the sale of our condo. Our condo association is only 8 units and when one of the owners heard mine would be going on the market very soon, reached out to someone that has expressed interest in our units. She same - looked - loved. Made a full asking price offer and wants to do it without agents... She also wants a 30 day close (we don’t close on new home for 40 days now) but is cool with us setting a vacate date after our close. She doesn’t think she even wants an inspection. She did mention that she is preapproved - indicating there is financing involved.

She is going to have an attorney draft an agreement for me to review... She asked if I was open to using the same attorney to which I said I would certainly have another attorney look at the agreement on my behalf.

What concerns should I have? What should I look for? What is the savings between using just an attorney or two versus agents? What is the cost for an attorney to review an agreement like this?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

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/
