Question for realtors:

Hi friends. I've had my eye on a home for over a year now. It is my dream house. The sales history on it is very strange (per redfin);

09/26/21 listing removed

11/18/21 listing removed

03/29/21 listing removed

09/21/22 listing removed

11/27/22 listing removed

11/27/22 listing removed (yes on the same day as the last one)

11/28/22 listed (active)

11/29/22 listing removed

11/28/22 listed active $699,000. Listing description is for 94 acres, no mention of the home so I'm not sure if it was included in this price

06/10/22 price change to 599,000. It doesn't list this on redfin history but the listing description and photos were also changed on this day. The acreage dropped to 2.8 and the description changed to talk about the house.

11/10/23 contingent

12/01/23 sold

12/04/23 pending

02/05/24 listed active new $575,000

05/13/24 $559,900

So here's my question. I want to email the realtor listed and ask why it isn't selling. There is a second home on the property and there are no photos of this home in the listing and I'm thinking this second house could be the reason why it's not selling? I believe an older couple lives in the main house and a younger family with children in the second house based just on the photos in the listing.

Would it be unwelcome or annoying if you received an email from someone about a house asking what the difficulties are in selling it from someine who isnt looking to buy right now? Im assuming thebanswer isnyes and i dont want to be a pest to the realtor who has this house. We aren't ready to sell our home and move quite yet, and this house is a bit out of our budget currently, but ive been actively watching this house forever and just don't understand why it hasn't sold yet. 6 bd/4 ba in the main home and 3 bd/ 2ba in the second home. Listed as 15,000 square feet but that is including 3 airplane hangars I believe. Bonus on site meat locker 😅

I'm also not a big pro in houses so maybe this is just super overpriced for what you get and I'm looking through rose tinted glasses.

Thank you in advance!

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/
