Central Air not working day hours after closing

So I kid you not, I closed on the selling of my house at 4:00 pm. That morning was the first time this year I turned on the air it was 77 degrees in the house. It's a colonial, that usually takes quite a while to finally cool down. I heard the furnace / blower turn on, and the outside unit. The day goes on, I close on the house, come home,house is still warm, but think nothing of it. Later that evening I'm packing some boxes, and I'm like...man it's warm in here. Check the thermostat 79 degrees. Obviously something isn't working. So, the kicker to this story is....the buyers opted for NO INSPECTION. The air worked last year, the last time it was used. Besides the no inspection in the offer, the buyers offered 45 days free rent, which I needed, and they are not ready to move in anyways...win/win also why I liked their offer. So now what...of course we're having a hot spell, and I don't want to tell them, because I don't want to pay for it. It's not my house anymore. Plus I feel I could of gotten a better price for the house, ( Zillow was showing $3,000. Higher even before we closed)but it was a solid offer, and the realtor said I shouldn't pass up.

Any suggestions.... Thanks

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/
