What kind of loan do I need to make this work?

We were originally looking to build, and own 3 acres. However, the prices have been astronomical it’s making me nervous that we won’t be able to afford building (right now or ever).

So we looked at a house in the neighborhood we want to be in that’s been sitting for 200 days. It needs a lot of work, mostly cosmetic. However, because I stay at home with our children. I don’t think we will have enough ‘income’ to qualify. Even though we own our current home outright and it’s worth the approximate value of the house we are interested in purchasing.

We also have virtually no debt besides one small car payment a month that’s almost paid off. We have cash in savings bonds (that comes with tax implications), savings, roth, 401k, mineral rights etc.

Is there a way we could pay the difference in equity of something we own? Or a bridge loan? Do I have options?

Am I better off trying to get financed through a credit union? Once we sell our current home it would be an almost even trade off, but I don’t want to sell our current home (it will definitely sell) until we secure another home.

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...
