Need To Get An Honest Opinion

I own a house in a small town. The house is in good shape. It could use some sprucing up and the like, paint, cleaning, a few simple repairs. I have checked the listings on it and it is listed at $87,900 to 93,700. The area is currently growing as a new company is coming into the county. Another company is interested in the house, they want it for out of town visitors/business persons to have a place for extended stays. They have made me an offer of $75,000. The gentleman that I have been speaking to about it has said that this is their one and only offer. He has also said that the repairs to the house would be too much for them to put anymore than this offer into it. He is considering more than just some sprucing up. They want to gut the place and start over. I feel like any extravagant replacements/repairs are on them. I really want to sell, but would I be a fool to accept 75 K? They will pay cash and all of the closing costs. Or should I see if their final offer is not so final and see if they will come up a little. I would be willing to meet them in the middle. They have one other option which is to build on some land, there are not a lot of choices in the area at the moment. I'm just really at odds on what to do and could really use some sound financial/real-estate advice. For those that answer me, thank you so much...in advance.

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...

How to get started?

Hi! I’m 23F and I just graduated college with an english degree (😅) but i’ve been working in nonprofits since I was 16 and lucked into an amazing first job with an one of the biggest and best real estate non-profits! I love my job so far, but it’s my first time being surrounded by such wealth (and very hard working, deserving individuals.) To be quite honest, I‘ve had a rough few years juggling multiple jobs to finish school, and the idea of myself not living paycheck to paycheck seems light years away. This is all being said, I guess I’m posing the question towards the group of what I can do now to start building that kind of future for myself. I find real estate very interesting, and i’ve loved learning about all the machinations behind development- I’m just not sure where to begin within the industry (investment/rentals are definitely not an option for me yet). I’m also looking to go back to school, but being that I don’t know where to start, I wouldn’t like to begin classes aga...
