Should I take cash or higher loan offer?

I got two offers today. One is $400k but they need a mortgage. The other is $385k but it's all cash. Is it worth losing $15,000 just to have the cash?

What would you advise if I were your client ?

Last year a home we were going to offer to buy took their home off the market because the buyer for our home backed out. Fast forward to this year, we made improvements to our home and put it back on the market and we have an all cash offer with a quick close and 30 day rent back, though I’m not willing to pay for a rent back which is what he’s asking. I contacted the owner of the home we were going to buy last year and that owner is still willing to sell their home, but they didn’t put it back on the market. The owner is going to need to find a new home, but thinks he can do it and move out in 30 or more days. So, what can I do with the buyer for my home while waiting for the owner of the home we want buy to find a new place ? I’m trying to buy time with the person who made an offer on our home, while the owner of the home we want to buy is able to find another home.

How long do I need to be at a new job before a mortgage lender will approve me for a home loan?

I recently graduated and started my first full-time salaried position about three months ago. Before this, I was working part-time while finishing my degree. I am hoping to buy a small condo in the Seattle area within the next year, but I have heard that lenders usually want to see two years of consistent employment history. Does my time in college count toward that requirement, or do I need to wait until I have been at this specific company for a longer period?

Can I cancel my listing agreement if my real estate agent is not doing a good job?

I signed an exclusive right to sell contract a month ago, but my agent has not hosted any open houses or run the digital ads they promised. The house is barely getting any showings. I am frustrated and want to know how difficult it is to break a contract and find a new realtor.
