Unpermitted Remodel in Peoria AZ

I’m under contract buying a house and the seller is a roofer company and they disclosed remodeling the kitchen, bathroom and floors and replaced the roof. When I asked for permits they said they did not get permits for the work, and my realtor is down playing it as permits are not needed for “cosmetic work”. The seller also is proving CLUE history for the one month the past 2 months only which is how long they’ve had the house for and refuse to provide CLUE report for past 5 years. The seller is a roofer company and they bought the house for $300k in June. My instincts are telling there was fire in the house which is why the first owner sold it for only $300k and the current investor seller who flipped it wants $440k and I’m under contract for that amount, but I’m considering backing away because of no permits and no CLUE history for past 5 years, but my realtor says that’s fine. Nobody gets permits here for remodel. It’s not California. I don’t know if I believe her. What would you do if you were in my situation?

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/
