Buyer dies 3 days before closing on home. Surviving spouse still wants the property

NY moving down south to North Carolina. My dad and mom bought a retirement house in NC. They agreed on a set price and my mom and dads name are on the deed.

My dad died last week, the house was supposed to close last Wednesday. We are recieving money from inheritance and trying to explain we still want the house. Weve sent proof of funds to them.

I think the seller is trying to back out and relist?? The realtor is trying to force my mom to sign papers all of the sudden, which i told her not to. (Release Form)

If her name is on the deed, how long is our offer legally binded? The closing was last wendesday? Surely we have another week until the money is released? We are paying cash.They are making it seem like we have to pay tommorow and it seems very pressuring.

Weve sent documents proving we are recieving funds. Anyone got any advice/legal tips here? We are going through our own real estate lawyer now.

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...
