I had a realtor give me a tour of property I was curious about now they kept pushing me to make an offer, is it rude to drop her?

I’m looking to buy in a condo complex. I already own here and am curious about getting a 2nd. I asked a realtor to give me a tour of a unit to see if I’d be interested in it at all.

However, after touring I didn’t feel strong enough to pursue making any offers.

However this realtor kept following up with me and pushing me to make an offer or buy one of the other units that are listed. She kept calling me every other day to see what I think about the other units. That I should make an offer, she thinks it’s a good deal etc.

I didn’t really want to, but ended up making a lowball offer for 2 units. One countered at a reasonably below market price but it’s not an ideal unit for me as it looks like the current owners had an ongoing leak and did a bunch of cheap repairs.

Anyways, they countered today with an expiration of this afternoon. I told my realtor to extend till Monday to let me think about it. And she point blank asked “I’m not understanding what you need to think about?” As if I’m buying a $10 lunch.

It’s been about 2 weeks since she’s been calling me nonstop. To be fair she did a decent amount of work talking to the seller agents, but I found all these properties myself.

Would it be rude if I told her I’m not interested in buying anymore without any reason and drop her as a realtor? She is being way too pushy

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/
