How much is a realistic cash price for my house?

Hello! So here´s my situation: I bought a house about 1 year ago, last July 2024. Initially, it was my dream home BUT, after spending a year in it, I realized that as a single guy living all alone in a big house, it is A LOT of upkeep and work. Fast forward to now, and by one of those shockingly unexpected moments, I was able to get a European passport due to ancestry and i REALLY love Europe. Anyway I wont bore you with details about my personal preferences, but here's the situation: the house is worth about 285k on the market. I am selling it for that price but its been over a month and sadly, not a single offer. I REALLY want to get rid of the mortgage at this point...and desperate to sell, so id even be willing to sell it for my loan amount which is 240k.

It's an American foursquare home, 4 bedrooms, 2000 sq feet, LIVABLE, except it does have knob and tube wiring and the original windows, which means some dont open. realistically, could I get at least 230-240k for my home? I know I've read cash buyers offer 70% of the house but that's I think when the home is not livable or needs extensive repairs? Mine does not, except for the wiring issue, but the kitchen is newly wired. Anyway, realistically, would a cash buyer company offer at least in the 200ks? It's also got brand new vinyl siding.

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/
