Is it possible to get Amerisave $500 application charge back ?

Long story short, I was contacted by Amerisave mortgage out of the blue after I submitted a pre approval letter application of another mortgage company yesterday (with that being said, they probably got my information illegally). Today the sales agent attentively led me through and put me on an online application which unusually introduced a $500 application fees in the end (usually for pre approval letter this shouldn’t exist , right ?) and I was kinda mentally tricked by the agent so I paid.

Then after some research in the afternoon I realized this could be a scam—the loan they offered me orally was low , the application fees shouldn’t be there and the sales contacted me without my consent , they didn’t encrypt my SSN... plus on Reddit some ppl said they got ghosted after the application fees too. It was all red flag so I contacted my credit card company to issue a charge back a few hours after the transaction.

Do you think they would side with me in the dispute or Amerisave took the legal detour and successfully took my money ?

FYI everyone don’t go for Amerisave or any unsolicited real estate mortgage company. Huge red flags 🚩

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...

Aren't comps/CMAs useless with buyer credits at close happening now?

I'm looking into buying a new construction townhouse in my HCOL US city. I'm seeing builders offering interest rate buydowns worth $20k-$60k on $800k homes (rather than just lowering prices) in order to keep their comps high for their other units, now that buyer demand has been declining. I asked my agent about these, and he said these buydowns aren't even the full story: buyers can write all kinds of other credits into an offer, like their closing costs, prepaid sewer fees, etc. Apparently cash buyers can just write in a "buyer credit at close" for any amount in their offer. So a new townhouse that appeared to sell for $800k in the MLS might have actually been a cash offer with a $100k+ buyer credit at close, meaning the buyer only spent $700k or less in total, but to the rest of the world they can only see the $800k! So that made me realize I can't trust comps/CMAs for other new construction townhouses. The sales prices could be way lower than they appear...
