Needing general advice!!

Hopefully the right subreddit! My fiancé, father in law and myself are desperately looking to get out of our current living situations all for different but not urgent reasons. I should note, we live in Canada, I have to switch jobs due to me not driving and fiancé and I have never had our own house/apartment before so this is very new to us. We went to a showing for a place a town over and we love it but there's a few things that caught us off guard.

  1. It said utilities included in all the ads we saw for this place but the gentleman who showed us the property said its not included. Maybe lost in translation?
  2. They actually said they thought $2000 was TOO much so they asked us to put in an offer and we said $1500, but we definitely can increase that.
  3. This was all about 2 weeks ago and hes reached out to me to ask about the breed of my FILs dog and minor questions.
  4. I reached out yesterday to ask about the status and he says he's been struggling to get them to improve their price? And were at $1800 now... what does this mean?

I'm only rushing/panicking to know our status because if we get approved I have to give my work decent notice and apply for our other location. (They are hiring for my exact position now). Is this a fairly normal stretch of time to have when renting out a place? TYIA!!

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...
