Lowball-ish cash offer vs FHA buyer

Just listed my lower-priced single-family home and I have two offers already. One is a somewhat lowball quick close offer, the other is an FHA buyer who offered 10K more. Home definitely needs some updates but everything works, and is being offered as-as. The home should pass FHA requirements and my realtor is highly experienced with all types of sales. I’m leaning toward going with the FHA buyer just because I assumed that they are a first timer trying to get into the market but what, if any, pitfalls should I watch out for here?

I own the home free and clear so I don’t really need to squeeze every last dollar out of it. I really just want a smooth sale! Of course, I’m asking my realtor these questions too. Just looking for a few opinions from the trenches!

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...
