Find out less than a week before closing of delays (Wells Fargo)

Bought a house in NC, for weeks I was checking in with the mortgage guy to make sure nothing would be delayed, etc and he said "we're right on track" and "no news is good news".

We are now supposed to be closing on Wed. Dec 4, he calls me at 4:59pm on Wed night (before long Thanksgiving weekend) and tells me closing is going to be delayed because they can't get in touch with title company. Apparently they've been calling the wrong number for weeks and just now decide to tell me. I had furniture, movers, utilities, etc all scheduled for closing day or a day after. Not to mention I apparently lose thousands of due diligence money if the closing is delayed. We didn't have due diligence in the state I'm coming from so I'm not sure if there is any way around it.

I'm beyond angry, since I've been in contact with him for weeks asking if there are any issues that would delay closing so I could start working on them. I'll never use WF (or a big bank) again after this. Definitely getting the "you're just a number" feel throughout the entire process.

Do I have any recourse if we lose the due diligence money because of this? Like so many other people on here, my Realtor warned me against using Fargo for the mortgage for this exact reason, but I've been with them for 20 years and just figured it would go smooth because of my history with them.

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/
