Two days after going under contract, received e-mail from random moving company.

Hey guys, just wanted to confirm my suspicions, or see if there are other possibilities.

I went under contract on a house a couple days ago.

Today, I received an e-mail congratulating me on the move and offering "moving consierge services". This email included the address of the property and my email address is not registered to a Zillow, Redfin, Trulia, etc account.

The only people (that I know of) that have this e-mail are:

My loan officer, my real estate agent, the listing agent, and the title company.

Someone I know recently used the same loan officer and this didn't happen to them, so that narrows it down to my realtor, the listing agent, their respective companies, or the title company.

To me, it's most likely that one of them sold my e-mail. The only other thing that I can think of, is public record, but it happened very recently, so that seems unlikely to me.

What do you guys think? Curious to know if this is common and if there are other possibilities.

TLDR: Got email from a random moving company that included the address of a property that I went under contract for a couple of days ago. I think it was one of the real estate agents or the title company. Whodunnit?

Aren't comps/CMAs useless with buyer credits at close happening now?

I'm looking into buying a new construction townhouse in my HCOL US city. I'm seeing builders offering interest rate buydowns worth $20k-$60k on $800k homes (rather than just lowering prices) in order to keep their comps high for their other units, now that buyer demand has been declining. I asked my agent about these, and he said these buydowns aren't even the full story: buyers can write all kinds of other credits into an offer, like their closing costs, prepaid sewer fees, etc. Apparently cash buyers can just write in a "buyer credit at close" for any amount in their offer. So a new townhouse that appeared to sell for $800k in the MLS might have actually been a cash offer with a $100k+ buyer credit at close, meaning the buyer only spent $700k or less in total, but to the rest of the world they can only see the $800k! So that made me realize I can't trust comps/CMAs for other new construction townhouses. The sales prices could be way lower than they appear...
