Yay! Closed on a house and moved in and the appliances are trashed! Yippee! Who does this?

I told my agent before buying that I had a bad experience with my last home. The owners had unplugged the fridge and it was moody and had food rotting in it. I asked him to make the contract where the appliance would be clean and I wouldn’t be left with a mess. I also asked that he wrote it so there was no garbage for me to take care of. My last house left 12 tires for me which cost me over 100 dollars to recycle.

I just saw my new home for the first time. The fridge has food and grease all over it. Somehow there is splatters of food all over the back of it.

The stove has NEVER been cleaned. It 2 year sold and looks 20 years old. Food mounded and caked on the bottom of it and it looks like they just let it burn each time.

The dishwasher smelled horrible. I thought, maybe I should run it on sanitary cycle and let hot water clean it. Smell never went away. I took out the filter and the moment I touched it I regretted it. Some brown red greasy stuff like sticking your hand in a can of crisco or vasoline. I could not wash it off my hand. I took the filter out and it was CAKED with this greasy stuff. Completely opaque. You could not run any water through it. It’s like the painted it with axle grease.

Then they left poop in the toilet. Poop splattered under the toilet seat. A drawer full of whisker hairs.

Either these people live like disgusting animals or they purposely wanted to piss me off. They are both “professionals” also and were very aggressive demanding sellers.

Now I have to see if there is any recourse.

Aren't comps/CMAs useless with buyer credits at close happening now?

I'm looking into buying a new construction townhouse in my HCOL US city. I'm seeing builders offering interest rate buydowns worth $20k-$60k on $800k homes (rather than just lowering prices) in order to keep their comps high for their other units, now that buyer demand has been declining. I asked my agent about these, and he said these buydowns aren't even the full story: buyers can write all kinds of other credits into an offer, like their closing costs, prepaid sewer fees, etc. Apparently cash buyers can just write in a "buyer credit at close" for any amount in their offer. So a new townhouse that appeared to sell for $800k in the MLS might have actually been a cash offer with a $100k+ buyer credit at close, meaning the buyer only spent $700k or less in total, but to the rest of the world they can only see the $800k! So that made me realize I can't trust comps/CMAs for other new construction townhouses. The sales prices could be way lower than they appear...

Obtaining a real estate license as a hobby?

Hello, I am 24 years old - 2 years out of college and I have my main job. I was looking to get a real estate license (in California if location matters) as a hobby/for fun since I like real estate ever since I was in high school. In the past 2 years, I would go to open house in the weekends to look at homes for fun. I don’t plan to practice real estate full time as I have my main job but I am curious are there any benefits to this? In the future, I plan to own multiple properties and have rentals, so I was wondering if getting a real estate license can help me with it?

Advice? Moved out of my primary residence and now renting

I moved out of the house I own in August 2021, I lived there for 8 years, I have been renting an apartment the past 3 years and renting out my house. My current tenant is moving out in September. I seem to have just missed the living 2 years out of 5 years rule for being exempt from capital gains tax and my house being a primary home. Any advice on what the best thing to do would be moving forward? Continue to rent out my house? I'm happy with my rental, but wouldn't mind buying another property down the road. I could sell my house down the road and try to do a 1031 exchange? Moving back in my house isn't ideal because it's an hour away from where I currently live. I could take a HELOC perhaps and try to buy another property and continue renting for the long term? I do have a 2.4% mortgage rate on the house so I don't mind keeping it for a while. Thanks for everyone's advice. submitted by /u/Ok-Top-7859 [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.co...
