No offers after 4 months what to do?!

Bought the house in 2018 for 189k. It was built in 1915ish, 1100 sq ft and marketed as a 3b/1.5ba home with a back deck. Interior is very updated with a lot of natural light. Some downsides are street parking only (quiet street, never had problems), and it’s old with previous foundation repairs and an area that’s settled (engineer recently came out to inspect. Suggested some repairs to help stabilize the structure but not immediately needed). It’s also more like a 2.5 bed/1.5 bath as the 3rd bedroom is a big office but too small as a room for an adult. Taxes are also higher since it’s in the city. Other than that it’s pretty turn key move in ready or rental ready.

On the market for 4 months now because I have to relocate soon and realized that homeownership really isn’t for me anyway. Started at 225k but since have come down to 199k. Haven’t gotten any offers after 60 showings, nor too much constructive feedback besides what I’ve mentioned above. It’s already priced the lowest in the area. Is it smart to do another price drop? Need a new realtor?? Repairs??

PM for listing, could sure use a set of eyes and ideas!!

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/
