Terminating exclusive buyer representation agreement

A few weeks ago we signed an exclusive buyer representation agreement when we put in our first offer on a house. The offer wasn’t accepted, so we are still searching. Our property management company reached out to let us know the buyers will potentially be selling the house we rent when our lease is up, but they are offering the house to us at a price lower than what they will list it as. We cannot afford to purchase a house in the neighborhood we live in (I’ve been watching the prices in our neighborhood), so I was extremely surprised what they are asking is within our budget. We also haven’t been able to find a house with comparable square footage within our budget. Now we are considering purchasing our rental, but our lease specifically states we must use the property management companies agent in the event this occurs. What do we do in this situation since we signed the buyer representation agreement with a real estate agent already? The agreement we signed doesn’t expire until a few weeks after our lease is up.

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/
