First time buying a home small help with legal language please.

So my grandmother recently died and my mom/aunt/uncle inherited 1/3 of the house each. Me and my mom had been living in the house to care for my grandmother and we decided to pool our funds and buy out my aunt and uncle.

What we want is for the any future sales/ect to require both of our names AND if one of us should die the other automatically owns the whole property without probate or other concerns.

The top of the contract written up by my uncle (most likely with a template of some sort) it states
PARTIES: ___Uncle. Mother, and Aunt_____("Seller"),

2* and __Mother and Myself Right of Survivorship_______ ("Buyer"),

I'm looking things up and for both to need to sign to sell/ect is 'AND' while actually getting the right of survivorship would be 'OR' (but that alone would let either sell the property without both agreeing) for getting both it would be 'AND/OR' right?

So would I need him to adjust the contract or does what's already there work.

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/
