New Construction Condo Purchase NYC

Hi all, I am 29 years old that has built up a nest egg of 50k in liquid assets. My father wants to gift me a down payment on a real estate venture. He has also said he would be able to pay cash and me pay him back to avoid financing. I have my eye on 610 square feet new construction condo with brilliant amenities in the perfect location for me. Asking price is 700k. The sales team advised half of the building has already been bought and all at the ask, so negotiating seems futile. Neighborhood comps seem to reveal this offering is in line in price per square feet. Through my profession (litigation compliance) I have connections to trust and estate, tax, and real estate attorneys, yet I am totally clueless and want to be prepared for some conversations that I’m setting up in the near future. What should I be asking them? What kind of research should I have at the ready when going into talks with my attorneys and CPA? And should I line up a buyer’s broker? A friend recommended me to a broker which said the seller covers his fee, which he mentioned he can split with me. Sorry if these are naive questions and many thanks for your time in reading this.

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/
