Vet my offer (too aggressive?)

My wife and I currently live with our two young kids in a 3BR that’s 1074 sq ft. We have a bit of a sweetheart deal ($1050/month), but can’t have pets, and would like more space.

Twice we toured a new build that’s been on the market for 300+ days. There are four identical units that started out at $390k and now are at $365k. 2000 sq ft total (1400 finished; 600 unfinished basement).

We both like the home and feel we could be happy, but it’s also not amazing (cramped kitchen/dining/living; no pre-plumb in the basement for a bathroom, small lot, etc).

I’m thinking of offering/asking this:
-$365 (asking price)
-$10k in closing costs/rate buy down
-Builder frames, roughs in electrical, insulates, and does the drywall. Basically a “white box” finish, where we could do the paint and flooring.

My good friend, Gemini AI, tells me the builder will be desperate and should at least consider this. I also know, however, that Gemini can be an idiot.

Thoughts?

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...
