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.

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...

Question With Tricon "Pending ID".....

My wife and i, along with 2 other peopl applied to rent a house, and our application says "Approved, Pending ID". Anyone else know what that means? Do we pretty much have the place or are we missing something? submitted by /u/Itskrueger [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/RealEstate/comments/1orixqj/question_with_tricon_pending_id/

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...
