Seller rent back after closing advice needed

We just closed on the house but we were so "generous" that we gave our sellers 25days rent free so they could move out in peace (they were buying their house with the money they got from the sell and they are also planning to do repairs in the new house). Of course now its bugging me because what if they cause damages to the house before they move out (at the end of the day its no longer theirs) or what if they overstay. We have to camp in airB&B until they leave. I feel that I own the house I cant even go to and while I am aware we agreed to it on the contract (sellers market, make your offer attractive to get the house..) it bugs me a lot now. I wanted to ask if this is a typical situation and maybe I am just overexaggerating and how to approach seller and when? I am hoping they dont need 25 days to move out and maybe will be out after 2 weeks. But I dont want to keep on calling them. Also not sure if it's a good idea for a buyer to approach seller directly? Our agent is suggesting to wait a week or two and then he said he would give them a call.Would appreciate any advise on that thanks.

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/
