What would you do

So July 4th we looked at the perfect house in our price range plus big enough for our large family. The listing agent was 45 mins late to show the house and sent her brother who had 0 info. So we asked a friend who also does reality to show us the house a week later and she informed us the house had a lean. That would need to be paid in cash according to the listing agent. We talked to our bank and they agreed to add it to our loan so we made a full process offer + lean amount bid. Which took them till 8/14 to except this is were things have gotten fishy they sent us there contracts which had that we were putting 6.5% down. Closing 8/16 and I wasn’t on this paperwork. So we sent it back for the to revise checking in weekly with no response till last Thursday 8/13 when they sent the listing agent an email stating they needed and additional $5,000 to cover expenses the house had occurred and if we agreed they would have us a contract in 48hrs we said no. And are back to radio silence from them and the listing agent. My husband wants to give them a deadline and pull out offer in hopes it will make them get something done. I’m terrified they won’t. The housing market in Colorado is crazy right now and finding a large house for less than 500K is impossible. I guess I’m asking what would you do. Or if anyone has anything they have done that worked

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/
