I am now finished with the home and ready to advertise. When I show people the home, should I disclose this info? I feel like I should, but I'm getting mixed reviews from friends and family members. I'm afraid the prospective buyer could come back and sue me down the road once they find out.I just learned that my real estate agent is cousins with the seller.

New Construction Spotlight:https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/11...Home Owners Association denied Buyer on closing day: "not a good fit"What's Happening In The Market? New Construction Spotlight:https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/11...Home Owners Association denied Buyer on closing day: "not a good fit"On the anticipated day of closing (after multiple extensions due to waiting on approval process for over 30 days), the Zoom interview (last step in approval process) was scheduled. The following day the association sends a denial letter. The only reason provided was the Buyer was "not a good fit." We're all in utter shock and disbelief. The Buyer has excellent credit, clean background and stable long term employment. There was absolutely no reason for the Buyer to be denied. The Buyer met and exceeds all of the requirements set forth in the governing docs and approval requirements. My suspicion is that the board does not want anyone who they think may be problematic or disagree with their actions in the future. During the interview the board member told the buyer about the board's intentions to increase HOA fees in the future. The Buyer naturally asked questions. The board has completely disregarded their own governing documents and approval requirements, yet there seems to be nothing we can do at this time other than request a reversal, which we've done. We've still not gotten a response nor an explanation. We've reached out to the association attorneys and they have not been able to provide a reason or response. The board members were not even all present during the interview. I believe only 1 was. These boards are getting out of control. Has anyone else dealt with something like this? The worst part is how does the Seller find another Buyer if this can happen again?Social Media Reacts

Would realtors fake having an offer to raise prices?I was looking at a house on the market and made an offer. The house itself had been sitting on the market for a long time now, with no offers to my knowledge (since November I think). Nothing wrong with it, it just needed some updates, which I'm fine with. Literally the next day, the realty company selling the house tells us that another offer has been made. While there is obviously a chance that someone made an offer, this feels too well timed to me. Would a realty company fake having an offer to get more for a house?TOP MINNESOTA REAL ESTATE AGENTS IN 2024? https://gritdaily.com/the-top-10-real...Minnesota Luxury Property:https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/23...Social Media ReactsMinnesota Supreme Court reverses conviction in real estate agent's 2019 killinghttps://www.foxnews.com/us/minnesota-...

I had the home repainted and then received a letter from the county telling me I violated their historical architectural restrictions by painting it an unapproved color. Nowhere at closing or during the buying process was I told the home was deemed historical and after going through closing documents there is nothing about covenants or restrictions in the documents.

So many slimey people and cheese balls in this biz. Got my license. Have to join a brokerage for them to process the transaction?? Joined a "team" and absolutely got worked over. Team lead constantly changed commission structure and fees right before a deal was going to go through. Kicking a lot of the commission up to the broker and team lead for doing basically nothing. "Prospecting" calling on crap leads all day, reading BS scripts about how it's a great time to buy, felt gross. Asking for referrals or business from your sphere or if they know anyone interested in buying or selling. Literally seeing everyone I know as a dollar sign and always trying to weasel real estate into the conversation.Buyer Was Hacked During Wiring Of MoneyHas anyone ever heard of anything like this?

Democrats propose new bills aiming to prevent hedge funds from buying homeshttps://www.aol.com/not-profit-center...Another cautionary tale of buying a house unmarried. Advice pleaseEx Gf and I bought a house. She broke up with me. I want to sell. She does not. We are both on the deed and mortgage, joint tenancy of survivorship. I am willing for her to buy me out but she is in a lot of debt. I know this because I loaned her 10k and she’s still in debt. She is dragging this out. We got in at a 3.4% rate and she refuses to talk to me. I do not want this to drag any longer. How can I force a sale or a buyout right away. I can’t do either without her consent, and prolonging this is my biggest fear. I know technically she can if she doesn’t agree to sign anything. I know she’s dragging this to either make me uncomfortable enough to make me leave. That way she can be in the house without me while keeping that low interest rate.. or buy her enough time to pay down her debts and wait for the interest rates to go down which will be torturous for me. I just want to be done and move on with my life.House appraisal came in way over what we bought it for.So we just closed on a home for 310,000 the appraisal came in a couple of days ago for 405,000 because the house was completely renovated head to toe and apparently the sellers agent was basing it off comps that were only similar in size but completely outdated from what I can tell. My first question is we put 15% but still have PMI wouldn’t we be above the 20% equity since the house appraised for so much more than we what we paid for me? Second question is will this most likely affect my taxes or cause any other unforeseen issues I can’t think of?Minnesota Luxury Real Estate https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/30...Minnesota Lakes Lake BemidjiSocial Media Reacts

What is typically included for personal property? I am an agent and I listed a home and paid for professional photos. After multiple offers, my seller ghosted me and decided they don’t want to sell or pay me the $25k commission owed or even a cancellation fee…. I let that go because I didn’t want to risk my reputation. Now, I find out 1 year later, she listed her house for sale with another realtor, and that realtor was using my photos. It was probably up for sale for like 4 months when I found out, then they canceled the sale and put it up for rent. It is still up for rent and they are using my photos once again. It’s not a lot of money at all, but that seller pissed me off so much that I want to get at least a dime back. Is this worth pursuing?

Interest rates peaked in October of 1981 at 18.1% for a 30 year fixed.

Neighbor killed my sale My house was under contract up until two days ago. Buyer came for the inspection and was outside talking with her realtor when my nosy/ gossiper neighbor came over to talk to them. Said neighbor then proceeds to tell lies about the other neighbors such as the house on the other side of mine is a "drug house" and there is someone who drives a Harley and carries a gun who always parks in front of my house. None of these things are true. The buyer, however, being an elderly woman who is moving into a home on her own, was absolutely terrified and ran into the house crying and screaming to cancel the sale. She rescinds her offer. We had only received her first deposit which after legal fees, wouldn't even be worth the hassle.

Home appraised $110,000 over purchase price, how should I proceed? What are the pros/cons of selling the same year I bought it and are there any ways to mitigate/lessen the Capitol gains tax? Anything else you would recommend instead of selling? The home is in an area that's basically just populated by tourists in the summer due to the surrounding lakes and forests.
Tenants want to buy the home they're renting from, and I'm locked at a very good rate. Best way to move forward? In a nutshell, I have good tenants and they want to buy the home they're renting from. I am at a good interest rate right now, but I know they're gonna end up with something much higher if I sell to them- even if I lower the price from fair market value. Is there any possible way to get them to own the property while keeping my rate? Say, rent to own or have me on the paperwork. Just trying to get ideas. I really want to help them out, within reason of course.

What's happening in the market
Some buyers turning to 1% down mortgages, but are they worth it? https://www.cbsnews.com/minnesota/new...
Big lenders are trying to boost business by offering 1% down mortgages, aimed primarily at first-time homebuyers who are struggling to qualify for a mortgage as a result of the affordability crisis. Rocket Mortgage's program offers to match 2% of the buyer's 3% payment to save the borrower a few hundred dollars per month, while United Wholesale Mortgage's program allows higher purchase prices but tops out at a $4,000 credit. To qualify for the scheme, buyers must have a credit score of at least 620 and cannot make more than 80% of the median income in the area they purchase in.

What are my options?The seller is set to close the deal with the buyer next week but has been informed that the buyer cannot muster the funds to make the payment and is requesting the seller to pay $8k of their closing costs to make the deal work. The seller, who is a working-class individual, is frustrated by this as they accepted the buyer's offer because they had an approval letter for $60k more than their offer, and this demand is not a pocket change for them. The seller is looking for other options other than re-listing or accepting the $8k hit.Serious question: Is the amount of realtor effort any different between a $400k and $800k house to justify double the fees (6% for both)? Why not go to flat rate pricing instead of percentage?This Or That: Chanhassen Vs Chaska This Or That: Elk River Or RogersForeign Property - Tropea, Italy https://www.idealista.it/en/immobile/...Social Media Reacts

It would be helpful to understand the approach each Realtor takes on: Do they always send the MLS listing first? Do they always check for sump-pumps? Are radon mitigation systems necessary? What basic checks can you do for major utilities (e.g. furnace, water softener) at a showing? What prior house maintenance can we ideally or practically expect from existing homeowners?
Should I dump my realtor? Or am I overreacting? My husband and I recently made an offer on a property that has been on the market for 158 days. We offered 8% below listing and our agent told us it was a lowball offer. However, two hours after sending our offer, he posted a video of the property to social media, essentially advertising it as if it was still on the market. We feel like this was unprofessional of him and are not sure if we should continue to work with this agent or if we are overreacting.
Housing affordability hits historic low https://thehill.com/business/3881539-...
Summary A recent study conducted by the National Association of Realtors (NAR) found that housing affordability in the United States has hit a historic low. The median family income of Americans is now only enough to afford the median-priced home in one-third of the country, and many major metropolitan areas have median family incomes that can't even cover the median-priced home. The NAR predicts that this lack of affordability will have a negative impact on the housing market.
How in the WORLD are people handling the interest rates ? Homes are still moving since inventory is low- but how is anyone handling this market after a year of shopping? I'm feeling very distressed about the current housing market. Last year, when I started looking for a home, inventory was low but manageable. Now, even with my budget of $530k, I'm having difficulty finding anything decent within an hour radius. I'm worried that the market will continue to be so competitive, and I'm trying to come to terms with how much it has changed in the last 1.5 years.

Closing Table Meltdown Stories When the closer asked the buyer if they have made any large purchases since applying for their loan: he said 'no, except for my new truck yesterday.' Once had a buyer and seller squabbling over $300, something insignificant that came up during the final walk through. This was about 10 years ago when both agents, the buyer, the seller and both their attorneys were all sitting there with the title closer. Finally one of the attorneys stood up, whipped out his wallet and threw three crisp $100 dollar bills out on the table. 🫠 The buyer proceeded to pick up the money and we closed. 😂 I have a fun one. A completely uneventful contract made it all the way to the closing table. Everybody signed their documents. In my state you sit at the table and wait till everything is finalized, the loan is funded, deed recorded, and then everybody walks away with their keys and checks. The buyer, seller, their agents, and the loan officer are sitting at the table chit chatting when the buyer mentions that they're going to go out immediately and start enjoying their retirement in the beautiful lake house he just bought. He had retired the day before from the job that qualified him for the loan. No one walked away with keys or checks that day. Is there ever a time to not buy? It seems like every realtor always has the same response, “now is the time to buy”. We are on the fence of finally buying our first home this year (most likely new build) with everything going on last year and this year. Are These Good Listing Photos? https://www.redfin.com/FL/Miami-Shore... Questions: I recently closed on my home, but the weeks leading up to it were a nightmare. The buyer's agent gave the buyers a key to my home without my permission and they started doing renovations. I had to tell them to leave immediately and took the supra off the door to prevent them from coming back. On the day of closing, the buyers changed their downpayment to zero. I have filed a complaint with the realtor association for my state, but is there anything else I can do? I am looking to buy a house that is listed at a price I am willing to pay, however, the seller is not considering my offer as they want it at a higher price. Can I take any action if they are not following the listing price, considering it has been on the market for 120 days? We found the perfect home for our family and offered the asking price. The seller countered with 4500 for closing and requested that they stay for 2 weeks after closing for free, and $100 a day after 2 weeks if it goes past that. I'm not comfortable with this, but we countered with 4500 in closing and that they vacate at closing. Is this a normal request? Social Media Reacts Sell This Listing

Solution For Lower Income Workers To Afford Homes? The pandemic has created a major issue for lower income workers, who are now priced out of almost every housing market. This is due to cash-flush remote workers, investors, and investment funds competing for properties, driving up prices significantly. Rents have increased two to three times the cost of a modest home mortgage at the rates prior to the pandemic, and mortgage payments are twice what they were a year ago. In response to this issue, some potential solutions include: * Regulating short term rentals * Prohibiting private equity, venture capital and other investment entities * Low-income first time home buyers granted special mortgage rates * Examining the free market rules

The average mortgage cost reaches 45% of household income, highest level in 40 years.
At 45% of median household income the average mortgage cost is now much higher than even the peak of the 2000s housing bubble.
The only period in history in which the number was over 45% was the late 1970s to early 1980s. How do you foresee this number returning to the historic norm? Will household salary increase or will the monthly payment cost decrease? Or will it not return to normal and beat out the all time peak of ~53%? The tides have turned...
Contractors Are Back? I recently bought a cabin on a few acres for $10K under asking and have been chipping away at DIY projects like insulation, vapor barrier, and hot water heater.

I'm hoping that this is a sign that contractors are becoming more willing and available to take on smaller jobs, and that those who have been waiting patiently and being frugal can start to get call backs on their projects.

My wife and I are selling our home. Our good friend is a real estate agent and he offered to represent us in the sale for only a 3% commission. We agreed after he did some comps in the area and suggested an asking price. It hasn’t been listed yet. Now all of a sudden, his son is interested in buying and we are thinking we need a third party appraisal based on the apparent conflict of interest between him representing us as the sellers and also his son as buyer. He is insulted and says that appraisal is unnecessary since he already did it. I’m unsure. Is this normal? ethical? Legal? Thanks.

I can finally afford a home with a down payment but don't know what to do with the current market. I feel I've missed the boat and waiting two to five years just makes me depressed. Advice?
Apparently a property I bid on sold for less than I offered, and they had a conventional loan (same as mine). I had a pre approval letter and excellent credit. What are potential reasons the seller chose the lower offer? I'm relatively new to real estate so apologies if this is a dumb question.

Day In The Life Of A Realtor
Can someone explain how and why apartments can be rented out for an equivalent of a home mortgage in the same area?
The rent for our apartment has been raised from $1600 to a little over $2000 a month. We are purchasing a house with the value for $380,000 in the same general area and were quoted for a mortgage of around $2400 a month (this quote has now increased because of the interest hikes). I'm aware this is incredibly naive, but I've always thought apartments should be significantly cheaper because you are paying to have "less" compared to owning a whole house. Can someone help me understand the market mechanics of how an apartment can rent for 80%-110% of a house mortgage

The seller is now suing her for the 40k that “he lost” due to her termination. Is her realtor(who is a friend)responsible at all? Has anyone heard of this?

Realtor wants to collect commission even though the house didn't sell?
I'm in the midwest. My house was listed at 400k and was on the market for 2 months and didn't sell. I did not want to accept any of the offers received (a lot of lowballs). The listing agreement has expired, and now my agent is saying I owe him commission for his time spent marketing / hosting open houses. Is this normal? The listing agreement doesn't mention this at all.

Welcome back! Schedule:
Today's schedule"
Sellers STOP Doing This - Trying to ask a price you think people will pay. Not properly preparing your home for the market. Putting restrictions on when to show, etc/
Seller Agents STOP Doing This - Telling Sellers all you have to do is put it on the market. Be understanding of agents representing buyers - understanding their position and why they are desperate. Forgetting that markets change, and your behavior will be remembered.

The Best Real Estate Show On The Market
This Episode:
Andy's Analogy
What happens if my mortgage goes into negative equity? Housing If I buy a house for, say, $500k and the market crashes 3 months later, and the house's value becomes $300k, what happens? What are my options?
Rooney's Rant
How much value would be destroyed by essentially eliminating a "formal dining room" in order to expand the kitchen?
We are planning to open up the kitchen, which is currently pretty tight, but the only way to plausibly make it part of the rest of the house is to expand it into the dining room area. This would, basically, eliminate the formal dining room. There would still be a nice space to eat as part of the kitchen, but that single-room dining area would just vanish.

Should I invest in a small town?
The town is around 5,200 population. It has declined slightly in the past 10 years. There are 2 properties that are selling right next to each other that are duplexes. When looking at small towns, what should I be looking at?
