What are my chances?[NC]

So a month ago, in very hot market in NC, my wife and I found the house of our dreams. It's a sellers market so it was overpriced and also had very little comps. The comps we did find showed the house could be overpriced by about 20-35k. The listing agent said there was interest and we did not want to be in a bidding war. Anyway, I was hesitant to pull the trigger and it slipped away.

Flash forward to yesterday, the house was supposed to close but did not. My agent reached out to the listing agent and he (LA) believes its just a lender delay but unsure. My wife and I being major creeps, learned the sellers drove back for the close, meaning it was more than likely unexpected. I know there are so many scenarios for this, some which would benefit us and it very well may just close. NC contracts permit a 14-day window to close so I guess all we can do is wait. However, those with experience please chime in, is there any amount of hope given this seems to be unexpected/last minute??? TIA

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...

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/
