a professional way to tell agent that we have decided to build a home instead of buy?

My fiance and I are first time home buyers. We went through the process of getting pre approved and we were ready to go. We decided to use a realtor that my best friend had used recently and had a good experience with. We had a meeting with him a few days ago where he introduced himself and went through the whole buying process. The next day I found a house I wanted to see online and sent it to him. He showed us the house and it ended up being a pass for us.

We have been entertaining the idea of building a house for a few months now, but after sitting down and going over all the pros and cons, we decided it would be the best thing for us.

He sent me a buyers agreement and I want to know a professional way to let him know we decided to explore another path. I feel like an a**hole for essentially wasting his time and maybe I shouldn't have enlisted his services if I wasn't 100% set on buying, but I would feel bad ghosting him and I did appreciate his insight and professionalism. (He only showed us one house but I think its just my anxiety making me overthink this)

Edit: I plan on buying a lot and building there

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 ...
