New neighborhood builder changing things from original community design and I’m livid.

Let’s start with change number one. They put in a speed hump right in front of my lot. Signage on both sides. Looks like shit. After I expressed disapproval and how it may actually conflict with where our driveway is going to be it looks like they filed it down and put in another one about 30 feet away. Wonderful.

They told us there would be a pond across the street and now it’s been decided it will simply be a dry pond. Cool, keep making changes.

Now the final nail in the coffin.
They have now added a paved walking path down the property line on the east side of the house and it connects to another that runs down the entirety of the back yards of all the lots. None of this is on the original community map and the sales rep we worked with specifically said the only path would be a few houses down to make a connection to another street where a playground will be. I mentioned how walking paths all around my house would be a dealbreaker for me and they ensured me it was going to just be that one path. I mean what the hell? I don’t think I have any legal leg to stand on besides my lot but this is just so wrong to paint this picture in your prospective buyers heads and then start chipping away at it one change at a time. Is this normal? I may walk....

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...

warning about Biggins and Scott Brunswick

his is a general warning for people who use this agency to rent a property. I am going to share a disgusting experience that I had with the above agency. I was new to the rental experience after a marriage breakdown so I answered a add on Real Estate .com and met a guy in Maribyrnong to look over a apartment . He suggested he was not only going to be my roommate, but he also worked at the company in Brunswick. All looked good and myself and a lovely lady moved in to the apartment in late March. Everything was going well ,we were paying our rent and things were moving forward with 3 people coming from different age groups and different upbringings. Then on the 25th of June out of nowhere 3 Breach Notices appeared on my email from my roommate but on Biggins and Scotts letterhead. I was completely surprised and after trying to reason with the sender of these documents, I then decided I had to call his boss the Director of Biggin and Scott in Brunswick. David told me that he was ...
