We’ve been looking for the past couple months and have finally found the home we believe fits all of our requirements and is within our price range. We attended a lot of the open homes and talked to the agent and he was sweet talking us at the time but when it came to auction, it was basically a total bust. The highest bid was way below what the sellers wanted and we had explained that we couldn’t bid too high because we were still waiting on finance which was coming the next day and didn’t want to risk it (auction was Sunday, Monday we received the finance). The partner agent told us to just submit our offer on Monday as we still had bidder rights until the house officially goes on the market after auction and so we did - the selling agent immediately declined the offer, which was a really good offer, and reworded our offer email which just made it sound like he was making fun of us to be honest. I understand being irritated by a failed auction but we were not the only people who ma...

I got my cd, closing 10/08. I was told my first payment would be 11/01. There is a prepaid interest for 10/08 - 11/01 listed on my cd. My understanding was the each mortgage payment at the beginning of the month pays off the interest accrued over the past month. If this is true, wouldn't my payment on 11/01 pay for the interest accrued in October? Why would I need to prepay interest as well? It feels like im being charged interest for October twice. submitted by /u/Nat9523 [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/RealEstate/comments/1fs4vwj/please_help_me_understand_prepaid_interest/

Apologies in advance for the really, really long post! Background: I just dropped out of the college I was attending (for reasons not in my control, but not related to finances). I moved back home with my parents to what is also a college town (Inland Northwest) and will most likely finish my degree here, so I'm looking for my own housing. Unfortunately being partway through the semester, everything is rented (or really expensive), but the rental market is significantly higher than other areas because of the students. Rent is looking to be the same or more than a mortgage, but houses are also a lot more than I could afford to make a downpayment on (I haven't ever had a credit card, so I don't have established credit). There are a couple "fixer upper" houses for sale, but for about what you would pay for a house that needs minimal work. One I really love was posted yesterday, and it's in a really good location (central in town, and right next to a park/scho...

My husband and I have bought out my sister of our father’s house in Alameda County, California. I am the trustee and executor. We want to use the parent to child exclusion from my father to me. Of course we are looking for the best property tax scenario. Our only child, an adult, has moved into the house. We are working with a title and have put the process on hold while we seek advice. I have spoken with the Alameda County Assessors office and have been sent two forms: Claim for reassessment exclusion for transfer between parent and child; and Claim for homeowner’s property tax exemption. Initially we were planning to have myself, my husband and our son on the title as Joint Tenants. Is this the right way to go?

So we sold our house and it finally closed earlier this week. When we listed, we’d been quite specific in the list of exclusions and inclusions on the listing. We very specifically mentioned we were leaving with a number of items that are « fixed » ie that are screwed into the walls. Stuff like some IKEA floating TV cabinets, a shelf I had custom built, curtains in the kids’ rooms that my mother had made for them custom. I get a call yesterday from the buyer accusing us of stealing from them and that I had no business taking those items. They later texted me an itemized list of what had been « stolen » with ridiculous replacement/installation prices (like 4000$ for a pair of 200$ IKEA cabinets, + 500$ to install). They’ve been harassing my realtor too. I went back and checked their initial offer and the excluded items were indeed there, so they don’t have a leg to stand on. I’m quite stressed out, I don’t need this right now. Can they really cause me any problems? I’m in Quebec. s...

Are these reasons to get a new realtor or should I give her some more grace because the market really is that tough right now? First time seller. Property is a condo/apartment. Been listed for 4 months, no offers. Priced competitively, such that I'm usually the lowest by a few thousand and now it's listed under what it will appraise for. 3 or 4 other exact same units in the same complex have sold since mine went up, some very recently. All listed higher than mine, I think one at the same price. There is nothing wrong with my property and nothing really different from the others that sold (the only real difference that could be is which way the unit faces the sun and maybe they are closer to to one of the small HOA playgrounds). I have 10k in new upgrades as of a month ago with the HVAC. The following are things I'm wondering if my realtor didn't do so well at. We had one open house at the start (the others had more).

After completing my licensing exam I figured I’d give you my thoughts and ideas about the 3 tests you must complete to start your journey in Real Estate 90 Hour Pre Licensing Course: I took my course through Aceable agent which was all online.

In my opinion they teach you all what you need to know for the tests. The test: (I had an earlier post regarding this because I was terrified of taking this test as you only have 2 attempts before you are required to restart the class) The test itself was very easy. I had taken the practice tests on the class website 4 times. Each test being 180 questions long. I also took the smaller practice tests for each chapter (I believe 27 chapters) 3 times each. Along with the Prep Agent website. I passed on my first try with an 83%. Had I not changed a few answers at the end I wo...

We put in an offer on land above asking price. We have found issues on the sellers disclosure such as not having previous soil tests done, but the county (and now I) have copies of a soil test under the sellers name from when they bought the property. As well as stating there is no known septic on the property, but we located a septic tank with a hole punched in the top covered by a rock, although it did not look it use. This tank is located five feet from their camper that they have had on the property for over a year, so it's extremely unlikely they don't know it's there. On the sellers disclosure, they listed that the land has gas service, and then lists the source as a 500 gallon tank. They recently listed their camper that was set on the land for sale, and stated that the propane tank was also for sale. Since the tank was listed as a source of gas on the land, does that not mean it's included with the sale? We love the land, so these items are not exactly deal ...

My wife and I are in the process of buying a home. It has radiant in floor heating on both floors, throughout the entire house as well as the garage. A boiler system located in a utility room in the garage. As nice as heated floors sound, I’m concerned about what happens if the system should fail during the winter. The home was built in 2019, so the boiler is relatively new, but the older the home gets, the greater the chance of failure. And this is in Alaska where winters get cold and frozen pipes are always a concern. Is this heating system going to be too much of a headache and constant source of worry? I’m just envisioning a scenario where the system fails and I can’t get a technician to come out to fix it quickly. Am I overthinking this?

Here’s my families scenario: We have an accepted offer on a hobby farm for $535,000 and have been receiving quotes for around 6% mortgage rates. We own a home with a 2.85% rate, and owe $213,000. The value of the home is around $400,000. Our mortgage is around $1,650 after insurances and taxes. The market for renting would put our house around $2,300 but if we chose to not sell we would struggle on a down payment for the new house. We have around $50,000 in savings. At 5% down on the new property we would need $26,000 and at 20% we would need $107,000. With the 5% down we would obviously have to pay a mortgage insurance. I’m looking for opinions on if it’s a good idea to rent or if I should just sell. Also, if I should just pay 5% down or how I could come up with the 20% down.

I was thinking about getting a small loan on a house and a investor then hopefully sell that house to repay the debt and have a little extra cash over to buy another house out of the money I earned instead of a loan from a bank then try to build a bond with that investor?? Is ...

I am 18 and planning on going to UF to study real estate and then moving to NYC get my license and become a real estate agent, but I have read that only 1 or 2 percent of agents there make more than 5 deals per year, I also have read that is really competitive so I’m really scared if I’m going to make it or not, what is a realistic expectation of being an agent in NYC? submitted by /u/Key-Goose-5656 [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/RealEstate/comments/1ffofar/is_it_being_a_real_estate_agent_hard_in_nyc/

this house has been in attorney review, under contract, and contingent during the time we’ve been asking our real estate agent to put in an offer for us. i’m confused… every article i’ve read is not telling me that there’s no caveat w putting in an offer during these periods. our agent is waiting for the listing agent to give us approval to put in an offer. can someone explain this to me? what’s this rule? submitted by /u/hauntedghost3 [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/RealEstate/comments/1few2ye/our_agent_is_not_putting_in_an_offer_for_us/

I am a first time homebuyer. My builder neglected to water the back yard for more than a month (and repeatedly ignored my emails about this) and now a majority of the lawn is brown and there are bare patches of dirt in the worst spots. As we approach closing (this Friday) I told my realtor that I either want new sod put down (the back lawn is about 3k sq ft.) or I want a credit to do it myself. My realtor’s first response was that I just need to water it and give it a year, in which case if it doesn’t grow back, it would be covered under the builder warranty. When I told her that I am 99% sure no lawn is covered under any builder warranty since it’s a perishable item, she next suggested having a signed letter saying that if it doesn’t grow back in June (1 year since it was put down) it should be replaced by the builder. I’m am weary to do this and I don’t want to look at dead grass until June. I’m certain it won’t grow back, at least not to what it originally looked like before it ...

Just jumped off a call now with a Remax director of a couple branches in a nearby state and he was telling me how, on his really good properties that get a ton of inquiries, the biggest issue they're facing is a huge inflow of uncategorised potential buyers. Do any of you have solutions to some sort of "hack" to distinguish between them more easily. Or, do you just have to slog it out and contact every single one of them to confirm their situation whether by phone/email/text? "asking for a friend" lol submitted by /u/iamethanglenny_ [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/RealEstate/comments/1fe5ryk/best_way_to_distinguish_serious_buyers_from/

So a friend a mine is closing on a property soon. Contracts are signed, he paid for inspections, seller agreed to repairs. While he was looking for home owners insurance, he found out it was a claimed filed for stolen property back in December of 23. The claim was for 28k. Because of this he is getting really high HOI quotes and wants to pull out of the deal. Can he pull out and keep his EMD? He expected to pay around $120 per month for HOI but is getting quoted around $3500 for the year because of this claim. This makes the Monthly payment much higher than anticipated. Seller never disclosed the claim. Thanks submitted by /u/Intelligent_Bed1605 [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/RealEstate/comments/1fe3vj1/question_about_emd/

I made the NIGHTMARE decision of buying at tower 155 in Boca, (For those of you who dont know google: Tower 155 Boca Lawsuit) basically they used a bunch of 3rd rate contractors they literally found on angies list and the building became the Fyre festival of construction literally leaks and mold are seeping into the walls in this billion dollar + building. That 200k Just gets us the legal costs for the laywers to sue the develops, could be 500+ mil in repairs overall this place is so damaged and it needs new basically everything including key structural elements that are very difficult to replace. I'm into this place for 2 mil but the markets about to get flooded. 30% of the units are empty and a single investor is about to drop 17 more on the market. How bad of a haircut are we talking here gents? Any chance I make it out of this unscathed? submitted by /u/Yamatro [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/RealEstate/comments/1fdceb8/foundation_of_condo_is_cru...

So my friend was planning to sell his land plot by plot and found a prospective buyer.. on a verbal agreement my friend took advance for booking inorder to ensure that the customer doesnt change his buying decision.. but now he is saying he isnt interested in the property and is asking for refund of the advance booking amount. Isnt it legal to hold back the advance money used to book a deal even if it was a verbal agreement.? submitted by /u/Next-Score-2155 [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/RealEstate/comments/1fdcalx/is_advance_refundable/

I’m interested in putting an offer for a home. But the tenants who are renting it refuse to leave. According to the agent, they have not paid rent in a year and are still awaiting to get a court ordered date to vacate. I signed a contract stating “home needs to be vacant upon escrow” meaning they need to be gone. However, I’m not sure how far long they are in the court process. But if my offered gets accepted, how will it be ensured they leave? submitted by /u/simplyleen [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/RealEstate/comments/1fcks9z/buying_a_home_with_tenants_living_in_it_still/

I won't get into the whole deal, but here's the problems. I sold my house. Part of their offer was to let me stay in my house rent free for aprox 3 months, which I needed. Also offered no inspection! Accepted the offer. My nephew was my realtor..(problem number one,,,new, not very professional.) The whole thing is just wierd. The buyers and I had our own closings...I never met them, which was fine. While at my closing the other agent texts my agent, and asks as a favor, if I would give a walk thru of the house before I move out. I wasn't happy about it, but said ok. Well it didn't happen for various reasons, I was pissed at my realtor for various reasons, and I just left the keys on the counter when I moved out. I still cannot figure out what this walk thru was to be about?? I did put sticky notes on shut off valves, switches, whatever....house was spotless. So as you can figure, their realtor, the buyers and my realtor/nephew were pissed cuz I didn't do the walk ...

Hello everyone, I am looking for guidance on how to best handle my situation signing on for a new apartment lease. I just toured an apartment tonight, and I want this place. Part of the reason I like it is that it’s a very good price. I plan to call tomorrow morning to let the landlady know that I want to sign a lease for the apartment. She has other potential tenants other than me, so there is a time concern there. However, I don’t have much more in my checking account right now than what the rent is per month. I won’t be able to ask her until tomorrow morning what she is asking for as an upfront payment to be able to sign the lease, but I clearly need to request flexibility with that when I call her tomorrow morning. I have positive referrals from both my last two landlords, spanning for a few years showing perfect rental payment history. I also have good credit and am employed but I just paid rent for my current place (I have been renting currently on a month-to-month lease so I o...

Hey everyone, Recently I have been getting into the world of real estate and I’ve been diving deep into the idea of mentorship in real estate investing. I know there's a wealth of free advice out there, but I'm curious if paying for mentorship/coaching may offer something more. For those of you in the real estate game: Do you think paid mentorship provides a clearer advantage over the free resources available? What areas within real estate investing do you believe would benefit significantly from dedicated, expert mentorship? (e.g., flipping houses, managing rental properties) If you’ve ever invested in paid mentorship, how did it compare to the free materials you’ve used? Was it worth the investment? I’m really curious to hear whether you believe that paying for expert guidance could make a substantial difference, especially compared to just going it alone with free resources. Looking forward to hearing your thoughts! submitted by /u/RealEstateConnector [link]...

Am looking in 2 communities - both are Toll Bros communities and within 10 minutes of each other. The first is an established neighborhood like community. Really nice single family type homes. Built in 2016 and you have the ability to fence in the backyard, add a fire-it, outdoor kitchen etc. The second are brand new townhomes with beautiful mountain views. This community is closer to the town and main highway, but set enough away that it still feels private. Prices are equal and both communities sell equally well. Which would you choose and why? submitted by /u/Kindly_Specialist790 [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/RealEstate/comments/1fb6duz/which_one_is_a_better_purchase/

I’m looking in Hoboken and the equity increase there has been insane. The past few weeks I haven’t seen as much movement. Could it be because people know rates may come down even more and there’s another hurdle to possibly pay the buyers agent?
