  • Can buyer/seller real estate agent collude?

    Hi. Wondering if the buyer real estate agent and seller real estate agent can collude to get a higher price for a home. We're looking to buy a place, and our agent is friends with the seller's agent. Sometimes it feels like our agent is collaborating with the seller's agent to get the place sold at a higher price rather than working in our best interest. We're first time buyers and the agents are similar ages to us. I hope that our agent is advocating for us, but sometimes I wonder.

  • how much do you lose selling a house as is?

    I have been renting my house in PA for the last 3 years and am ready to sell. I know it is in rough shape but I'm not sure how much money to put into it before listing. It could use new carpet and paint, there is also some wood rot on the three-seasons room. Will I make more if I fix everything first?
