Kind Of In A Panic

I am not sure how to write this, so I am going to be as delicate as possible.

My wife and I (and daughter) moved 2.5 hours away from where we used to live. We did this because we wanted to be closer to our sisters who live 30 min away (our sisters live in different areas so we wanted to find a spot that was somewhat of a middle ground so we would be equal distance of each other). Anyway, we bought a home that we really liked. However, the neighborhood is all muslim and we did not know that when we bought the home. The town itself is not, but our street is.

Once we moved in, we found this out. I mean, unless you look up every neighbor on the county website, you would have no idea. Just to get this out there, we were completely fine with it. We have made efforts to connect with the neighbors, introduced ourselves, etc. But it seems were are being avoided and do not seem interested in getting to know us. I just want to make sure our daughter can find her tribe, and it just isn't working out.

Our house is on the market now (8 months after moving in), and we are priced very low (especially to comps around the area). So we do not have a pricing problem. Every feedback has been your house shows beautiful, great updates, modern design, etc. So lots of showings, no offers. So I am starting to panic. I hope possibly a Muslim family would buy the home, but that has not who has been viewing our home for showings. I really wanted to make this work, but I do not know what to do

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...

Question With Tricon "Pending ID".....

My wife and i, along with 2 other peopl applied to rent a house, and our application says "Approved, Pending ID". Anyone else know what that means? Do we pretty much have the place or are we missing something? submitted by /u/Itskrueger [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/RealEstate/comments/1orixqj/question_with_tricon_pending_id/

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/
