Crazy seller

We were sent a listing of a very nice apartment by a real estate agent but it was out of our budget. The agent told us the seller is in under pressure of 2nd loan she took and asked us to visit and give our best offer. So we did and the seller somehow agreed which was 25% less than asking price and it was above €1million. We signed a pre sales agreement that we intend to buy and the agent said let’s put the date after a month for notary process in the agreement. We applied for loan and got the approval so we told the agency. The bank said it will take 3 weeks more as it was holiday season. We communicated it to the agency and then the seller turned crazy. She started emailing us daily why it’s taking time and why do we need to get life insurance(bank asked us to take it and they checked it was mandatory). My husband was the same bank employee and we had loan benefit so we couldn’t switch banks. She knew this thing before.

While waiting for the insurance company to give us the contract, my husband had to travel to our home country as his father had a brain stroke and was in ICU.

I informed the agency and the “crazy seller” of our situation and told her my husband will be back soon. And it will take him 3 days to do the medical tests for insurance once he is back and we can still sign it on the date bank agreed.

She became fanatic and started sending insane amount of emails harassing us. We were already distressed so I asked her not to contact us unless we hear from bank. Next day she sent us a legal notice to pay her EMI and interest of second loan as her payment date was 20th and our signing date was 30th. We contacted a good lawyer and he shared all the documents to theritand informed us as long as we are not delaying intentionally this law doesn’t apply.

We signed the notary on the very date and she had a proxy on her behalf. Now we are living in the apartment for a month and receive another legal notice to pay her €40k instead of initial 9k as her interest rate has increased and her EMI of old and new apartment.

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

Fast Rising HOA Fees on NYC Condo, No Budget Provided

My wife and I are first time homeowners and could use some advice on a situation we've been having with our management company and Board. We bought a condo in Brooklyn two years ago, and since then our HOA fees have climbed dramatically. In August of last year, our fees were increased by ~30% and just yesterday we received notice that this new figure would be increased by 16% as of June 1st. The by-laws for our building state that ten days before such a change goes into effect, the Board must provide unit owners with the itemized budget upon which the new numbers were based. This didn't happen last year, and when I asked the management company about it, they just kept vaguely insisting the Board had done due diligence. After I kept pressing, they finally sent a budget that was several years old, so obviously not the one that the new numbers were based on. When I asked the management company for contact information for the Board to get further clarification, I was told that th

How to create fidelity investments current bank statement for lender during escrow

I transferred a certain amount to my bank account to complete the minimum down payment required. The bank wants a current statement of the transaction. Unfortunately, fidelity only does quarterly statements so a December statement is not available and we are due to close next week. I called fidelity and they they can only provide a letter but the bank said that won’t suffice. Any way I can find or make one of my own that has my account number/name along with all the recent month’s activities? submitted by /u/bodaciousbeans [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/RealEstate/comments/zmnnqo/how_to_create_fidelity_investments_current_bank/
