Self employed house mortgage loan options? W SsDI Co borrower

Okay, soooo. We have about 70k coming in any day lump sum, and then my work, but net on taxes is super low, I write off so much every year because I am self employed. I don't get a refund per se, since most of my work is service related. Husband gets 22k w ssdi, (refuses to go through the process w va for disability so ugh), and he is not taxed on ssdi.

Now, we are selling our house, and looking to buy another w a loan, but the lender is hating I am self employed.

I've been self employed for YEARS. And am rebuilding after that covi shutdown which heavily impacted my business so my income went down by about 35%. But, how do you qualify if they are sketchy bc of self employment?

It's kind of feeling like discrimination, I make okay money, it's inching back up, in a year or two, should be back to the 130k mark, hopefully will also go higher, but bc I'm self employed and write off expenses it's like SE, is a dirty word for loans?

Why? Ove worked for myself for 17 years. We own our cars, no heavy debt, owe 131k on current house.

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...

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/
