Cant close because of insurance problems

I am in the end stages of buying a trailer park in FL. The only hang up is there is a structure on the property that is owned by the park so the bank is requiring me to get wind and flood coverage on it. It is just a portable shed that I would value at 5-7k. I have already got my liability and flood coverage squared away, but I was unaware of how much of a time consuming process it is to wind coverage in the state of FL. I am almost on week 4 of waiting for this coverage. I recently had to ask the seller for a 2 week extension of our contract. Our extension expires at the end of next week and the seller sounds adamant that he NEEDS to close by then. I don’t know what to do, I feel like it is out of my hands at this point. My question is have you guys ever been able to get the bank to let you close on something without having the proper insurance in place? I am extremely frustrated because the value of this building is less than 1% of the loan amount. Is there any products or companies that offer a temporary emergency insurance service for situations like this? I was also thinking about offering to give the bank the amount that the building is worth to hold until the insurance comes through. Just spitballing ideas here

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...

Question With Tricon "Pending ID".....

My wife and i, along with 2 other peopl applied to rent a house, and our application says "Approved, Pending ID". Anyone else know what that means? Do we pretty much have the place or are we missing something? submitted by /u/Itskrueger [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/RealEstate/comments/1orixqj/question_with_tricon_pending_id/

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/
