Closing delayed due to USDA loan

My husband and I are under contract to sell our house. Buyer is getting a USDA loan. We were told that paperwork was submitted to underwriting in the beginning of August and it’s usually a 2-3 day turnaround time. Well due to you know what, the underwriting process still isn’t done. Closing was supposed to be last Friday and that obviously didn’t happen. It was delayed until this Monday, which isn’t happening either. Nobody is able to give us any idea how long of a delay it will- be days, weeks, months... We still don’t even have a commitment letter. Our realtor has been in touch with the buyers realtor and lender and has been assured that the buyer is very interested and that he’s going to get approved, we just don’t know how backed up the USDA is. Our realtor has told us we have an option to terminate the deal.

Anybody dealing with a similar issue? Anything we can do? This is causing a massive financial strain on us because as of September 1, we are paying two mortgages in addition to two sets of bills and have had many unexpected repairs to our new home. The first buyers for our home backed out and now this... We don’t want to terminate a deal at this stage, but if it’s going to be delayed for a very long time, we may have to reconsider! We just want a commitment letter and an official closing date!

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/
