Should I spend my pre-approval amount?

I was pre-approved for $475,000 house. But I look at the monthly payment and I'm just not comfortable with it. In my mind, it feels like it's too much. But I'm also wondering if I can afford more than I think. How do I decide if I should spend my full pre-approval amount?

Can I pause selling my house?

I've had my house on the market for about 3 weeks. I was hoping it would sell quickly and I wouldn't have to deal with showings over the holidays. rnI'm wondering, if it hasn't sold by the week of Thanksgiving, can I pause selling my house? I don't want it to look like the house is just sitting there and no one wants it. But I also want to enjoy the holidays without needing to have the home "showing ready" at all times.

If I sell my home, will my boyfriend receive part of the sale?

I wanted some clarification before deciding to put my home on the market. My boyfriend and I purchased a home together several years ago. We split up so he signed a quitclaim deed but is obviously still on the loan. If I want to sell my home that I have been making payments on myself for the last 8 years. Does he need to sign anything and would he be entitled to any of the sale money?

Does the buyer’s agent have to disclose if they know the listing agent?

Does the buyer’s agent have to disclose if they know the listing agent as their ex in-laws? The husband in the team that represented us was the listing agent’s ex brother in law. Conflict of interests? Enough to void the contract?

Are Open Houses a waste of time ?

Our listing agent says that open houses don’t generate serious buyers. When the agent does an open house, he never has a sign up sheet, so I don’t know how the agent follows up with potential buyers that might be interested. For awhile, the agent didn’t even have flyers to hand out. Is an open house just a waste of time ?
