Lis Pendens filed and temporary injunction

We are selling our second home all cash,no contingencies. We own the home and the title is free and clear. We are closing in 3 days. Suddenly, my neighbor filed lis pendens and injunction stating he is entitled to the proceeds because we are in a lawsuit and a judgement could be entered in his favor on Nov 10. Our lawsuit does not involve our property at all and there is no judgement entered yet. I thought a lis pendens had to involve ownership issues in real property. Our suit has no relation to our property. The buyer is aware and the title company said we can get GAP insurance as we are about to close this week. The judge granted the injunction before our hearing on Monday and the injunction states I need to put the entire proceeds of the sale in a court appointed account which I believe is illegal and if it’s tied up, I still need to pay state and federal taxes on the sale so how is this possible? I’m considering ignoring the injunction because I have every right to sell my house, a pending judgement is jst that…pending

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...
