Are we overreacting?

We're buying a home built in 1978, the year lead paint was officially banned. As an extra precaution, because we have young baby and because we have the money, we asked for a lead screening to be done just in case. We listed this in our contract. We just found out that the screening was not done and we're scheduled to close very soon.

Our real estate agent is acting like this is no big deal because the HOA and inspector said its not a big deal. We're still going to go through with buying the house, but I don't understand how something that we listed in the contract was completely skipped. And now our concerns are being dismissed as though its not a big deal. I should mention that we've been less than thrilled with our real estate agent and have felt dismissed on other issues (for example, the sellers disclosure had an entire section left blank). Are we overreacting?

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...
