New construction progress, or lack there of.

So I bought a new construction house about 2 months ago. The builder has from what I can tell graded the lot, they dug an area out for the basement, and seemed to flatten the land where the house will sit. It seemed like they were actively working on it up until 2 weeks ago. I live right by the development so I check once a week to see what's going on. My builder notified me this morning that they were working on grading this week. This didn't make much sense to me as everything looked graded to me and they were previously digging the area for the basement. Also there literally has been no change in the past two weeks. I questioned the builder and she stated that she'll check with the guy in charge of the construction as she's just the sales rep. What I did notice is that they have been working diligently on clearing and grading the neighboring lots from mine. I think they just stopped working on mine to take care of the other lots near mine. I just wanted to check if this is normal. I've read some horror stories about builders going past the expected close date by a lot and just want to try to apply some pressure ahead of time in order to get them moving before it becomes an issue

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/
