Foundation or normal?

Not sure where I should post this or what to tag it as. If this isn’t correct please help me find the right place.

I live in a townhouse and these do not have basements. My living room is carpeted. I noticed over the years a spot where my floor feels like the concrete under my carpet has cracked and either lifted on one side or suck on the other. No more than an inch I think and you can only tell by feeling with your foot. It’s not visible. Doors are fine. Windows are fine. No wall cracks and floors are level on both down and upper floor. Is this worth bringing to my landlord or is this kind of a normal thing?

I’ll mention this because I know it could be relevant. I live about an hour north of Pittsburgh PA. So as far as climate and rain and all that… not sure sinkholes are common at all up here… but it has my anxiety worried my place is going to collapse lol.

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/
