A Realtor is supposed to work for you.  \n\nConsider them your employee.  They only make money if they sell your house.  \n\nIF they have found a buyer at the higher price, and are trying to make a larger profit by buying from you cheaper then selling to them, that is unethical.  It's also called flipping and in most states is not legal

Yes. The person on the title can block your attempt to refinance.\n\nYou can wait to sell, but he will have the same veto power over any contract offer as well.

Sure, if it's worth less than $10,000.\n\nI once sold a house for $6.000.  That's what it was worth in its location and condition,

There are several issues here.     Let's start with the appraisal.  Appraisers are regulated and appraisals are valid if performed in complaince by a licensed real estate appraiser.  If your buyers are getting financed on the purchase, an appraisal will, in all probability, be required.  If they are not financing it, no appraisal will be required so you may never know the home's real value.\n\nThe fact that your sister's home may be valued higher than yours would not be unusual if her home is bigger, in better condition, or just not comparable to yours.  Just because a house is next door doesn't mean the values will be the same.  There are a lot of things that factor into value. \n\nNext, if you signed an agreement to sell the home for $200,000,\nyou have entered into a contract to sell at that price.  it may, and I stress MAY, be too late to change that now.  The may comes in because the Realtor must disclose that the buyer is a licensed Realtor.  If he did not do so in writing on the sales agreement, you may have a case to void the contract.\n\nFinally, that Realtor has absolutely no business bringing in anyone to move you or tell you what can be moved.  He has no rights to enter your property at all without your permission until such time as the buyer's loan documents and your deed awarding them the title to the property have been signed and recorded.  Until that day, the home is yours and yours alone.\n\nAt best, what has occured here is an example of horrible communications.  At worst, you're being swindled and taken advantage of. \n\nYou say you cannot afford a lawyer.  I say you cannot afford not to consult one.  You can pay the lawyer's fee from the proceeds of the sale. \n\nAt least make an effort to protect yourself.  Call legal aid, call  your pastor, call an advocacy group for people with your disability.  Help is out there, please go get it.\n\nI'll pray for you.

No not form some time.\nAs a seller you need to figures out what you can sell for and God help you if you just got the house in the last three years or have a equity line of credit, you will be up side down.\n\nIf you have some equity do be greedy the longer you wait the less you will make. \n \nThe reason for this is that the bubble is breaking checl out this web site and see why has happen and why you may get screwed.\n\nBest of luck.\nhttp://www.breakingbubble.com/index.htm

They should start looking before.\n\nThe seller can include in their P&S (Purchase & Sales Agreement) with the buyer, a contigency that states their contract is dependent upon their ability to find a new home. It usually includes some type of time limit 30-90days is common depending on the buyers ability to be flexible.\n\nIf you are performing a For Sale By Owner, you'll need to study up on this some more in general in regards to purchase and sales agreements, if you are working with a Realtor, they should be able to assist you with this easily.

Call a realestate agent. Often they are the brokers for such deals.

You can but if people are asking you for a buy it now price and you have a bid allready and there is still 4 days left, it sounds like something that people want to buy. So i would leave it as is and i reckon your reserve will be met! Let this guy or girl who wants to buy it now bid for it as that is the whole point.... He is just tryin to get it cheaper.

You had your sellers sign the counter?  That ties the house up.  If you get a better offer, you need to hurry up and withdraw your counter.  If you get another offer that's worth responding to, but not accepting, then you're in a pickle.\n\nI think they'll think on it a while, then sign it.

if i were you i would check with a lawyer before anything else happens. i do not believe the realtor has the right to change anything without the sellers permission unless there was something in the contract that you signed with the realtor. read that 1st and contact a lawyer next if you feel that this was not a legal doing by your realtor. by no means would i let a closing on the property happen without finding out for sure if this was legit

The problem I had with Assist2Sell, is they wanted to list my home about $10k below market.....To sell it fast.....I got other appraisals and realized they were under selling my property....Plus they won't put it on MLS for the $2495.....Only on there website.....If you want it to be on MLS, they will charge you the 6%.....Its sort of a scam.....I ended up selling myself for more than Assist2Sell's price and saved 1,000's.....Best of luck to you...

Normally commissions are split between the buyer’s and seller’s agents. The usual split is 50/50. If this discount real estate agent accepts 3.5% then that means that the buyer’s agent will get 1.75% or half of the commission. Most agents I know will not show a house that offers less than 2.5% and in this market you want every person you can to see your home. If he wants to take 1% and offers 2.5% to the buyer’s agent it might work. Remember, you get what you pay for and most REALTORS® work very hard for their commissions and they are worth every penny.

You will usually take as few as 15 days to as many as 45 days to close from the day you sign the agreement. So ideally you would make offers you expect to be accepted at 45 days from the move in date. You will then raise the offers them and tighten up the closing date as the deadline approaches if you have to move. Remember there is usually a day or two before it funds and you get the keys, or put in the offer you take possesion at closing. Otherwise it is at funding.\n\nYou should start getting comfortable with the market by looking on your own. You probably don't want to tie up your own agent for this long. So call the listing agent when you want to see inside a house. Otherwise just look at the prices and the paper and maybe drive by. Once you are ready to start making real offers within a month then get your agent lined up. You will even have several that you already talked to and you might like.\n\nAnother option is to start making lowball offers in the mean time and see if any get accepted. My wife and I started looking in Jan a few years ago and made offers 15% below the listed price if it was a very reasonable price, and as much as 20-25% if it was inflated for a big sell. (you can use www.zillow.com to help with valuation, but it isnt perfect remember). It took 8 offers (7 rejections) and we moved in in July to a house that was appraised for 10% more than we paid! Just tell your agent what the plan is so she isn't surprised when you don't come up to reasonable offers. You might even consider springing for lunch once in a while since you are really making her work hard.\n\nMake sure you can afford to have the house early if you get it, otherwise you might not want to try that.\n\nGood luck

Unless you are in a bind and need quick money or need to sell your house in a week, you should definately not use one of those services.  Their business is based on buying homes under market value, making some repairs upgrades (like "Flip this House") and reselling at a profit. The best thing for you to do is consult several Realtors and have them give you a Comparitive Market Analysis on what they think your home would sell for--they will do that for free--or hire an appraiser $300-$400.  Then call one of the "we buy houses" people and have them give you a bid.  I guarantee their offer will be significantly less.

No, if it is your principal residence, and you sell within 2 years.  However, if this is an investment property, and you are using that money to buy another investment property.  The transaction could be set up as Sec. 1031 exchange, which will result in a tax deferral.
