Pros and cons of section 184 “Native American” loan at 2.8%? Tulsa, OK market views?

Building a home in Oklahoma, $300k, looking into section 184 loan. Seems like a no brainer, very low down payment requirement and great interest rate. Is there anything I may not be considering? I know we need to sell our current home before we close on the new home, but I don’t think that will be an issue.

Anyone have thoughts in the Tulsa surrounding area market?

I’ve heard “no PMI” with a 184 loan, but is that true?

Current home built in 2015, 1,900 sq feet, 4 bd, 2bath, single story, 2.5 car garage, premium lot in HOA on 1/3 acre, backs up to semi-busy road but most of the time it’s not bad, Immaculate, neutral, and lots of custom features, added tornado shelter.

New home is 3,200 sq feet, 4 bd, 3 bath, game room up, two story, 4 car garage, 3/4 an acre backs up to farm land, can do whatever the hell we want (aka no HOA).

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...

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...
