Just Closed at 2.375% w/ a VA Loan, Details in comments for those interested.

- We are in the N. OKC area (Edmond), this was a new construction home from the ground up. 4 bed, 2 Bath, 1900 SF in a great part of town with all 10/10 schools.

- 30 Year fixed VA loan

- Purchase Price was 269K, we put $2K in earnest and $2.1K in out of pocket upgrades

- We did NOT buy down points.

- Locked in the rate exactly 30 days ago.

- The lender charged $1,095 for the loan/origination fee and gave us slightly over $2K in lender credits

- We put $0 down and financed the VA funding fee. The funding fee goes directly to the VA

- The builder gave us $2K in closing cost credit.

- We paid nothing at closing and paid the VA appraisal fee of $500 out of pocket about 2 weeks ago.

I cant think of any of the other big points or key take-aways but i have all the info and can answer any questions from the buyers perspective if anyone wants. We are a regular family of 5 with average income and great credit. We are super stoked and couldn't be more excited.

*EDIT - closing was today at 3.

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/
