Holding back my escrow cuz there're pissed at me??

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 thru. Anyways, "whoever" now is holding my escrow and water bill refund because they are pissed at me. I'm barely talking to my nephew, who isn't returning my calls...he doesn't know what's going on with my refund, or where it is.....yeah okay.....anyone have any idea who I can call to figure this out? Can they hold it for whatever reason? The whole situation is very stupid....part of the problem is my nephew doesn't understand that I'm his customer first, apparently the commission he just made off me wasn't enough.

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...

Co-signing as non-primary resident - effect on size of required downpayment & first time home buyer status?

Contemplating co-signing on a house with my mom and splitting the mortgage payment. I currently have a significantly higher income and much better credit than her. I'm looking at potential home costs and related downpayments but have difficulty using some of the online estimators. From my perspective, this would be somewhat of an investment purchase (I intend to stay in my current location in a different state and contribute to the mortgage), however, for my mom, this would be a primary residence. For purposes of the downpayment size and the type of mortgage arrangement, would it be an investment property or a primary residence? Many thanks for any help. submitted by /u/piercalicious [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/RealEstate/comments/km4hvl/cosigning_as_nonprimary_resident_effect_on_size/

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/
