Elderly neighbor passed away, home went to HUD, other neighbor took down fence?

Basically title, my elderly Italian neighbor passed away, or at least I am sure of it.

We never see her anymore, and her home was listed for sale briefly, before we saw the

"THIS HOME IS MANAGED BY XYZ COMPANY, IT HAS BEEN WINTIRIZED, ANY THING RELATED TO SALES, PLEASE VISIT HUD HOME STORE.GOV" paper

Now I see some painters, her furniture now removed, and doors and windows replaced. Does the government really renovate home internally like that? I was hoping to get a good deal out of it.

The 2nd concern I have, her sleezy neighbor was not the best of people. She used to complain on how he cut her camera lines because he didn't like that they were pointing on his property (I live in an extremely tight suburban area, any camera in any direction sees your neighbor)

That neighbor has taken down the fence between him and my elderly Italian neighbor, it's petty, but he's been utilizing the space.

If I decide to pickup the home (which I intend to do, I like the property, and when we visited her home, it needed a lot of work, which I'm happy to crack at), do I have any standing to have him repair the fence he took down?

Also, for real estate agents here, there is no way to know about this sale of the home except for the government right? Like no loop holes? No backdoor to get first dibs on an offer?

Thanks in advance

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...

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...
