Sell a house we just bought few months ago in New York State

Bought a house in NYS in summer but I'm regretting buying this house as we have 3 little kids and my partner and I work full-time in office, our commute to work is now 45+ miles each way (initially we both worked remote but now we are told to be in the office 5 days a week). and we are spending more time in traffic than at home, with each other and with our kids.

We do wanna be homeowners and would like to buy another house closer to NYC.

The current house itself is great, doesn't need any improvements. Specious + 1.5 acre land. There is currently a 12 greenhouse solar farmhouse being built next to our property that should be completely built in next 5 years.

We are in "no rush" of selling it but wouldn't hesitate selling it if we get a good offer whenever in next couple of months or 1-2 years.

A few questions:

1- What can a real estate agent do for us? Should our agent or we reach out to the farm owners and see if they would like to buy our house and expand on their future farm?

How often does reaching out to others to sell your property work?

2- Is this possible: can our agent show our house to a buyer who's looking to purchase a property like ours, while our house is off market? How would this work?

3- please give an idea or advice regarding selling this property. We miss being close to the city and our family. We didn't realize how important it is to be close to the family until we moved away. I guess it's a very expensive lesson for us.

Please be gentle and no rude comments, we are disheartened that this beautiful house isn't going to be our forever home.

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...
