I need to sell but I owe more than I can sell for. what do I do?
I've got a townhouse in Tampa listed 4 months now — two price drops, still no real offers, just lowballs. I owe $198k at 6.4%, and at this point I'd probably have to sell for less than that plus closing costs. I moved out of state for work, can't carry rent + mortgage + HOA + taxes much longer, and renting it out already cost me money every month.nnhow should i price and negotiate when I'm underwater like this? Is a short sale realistic here, or should I just eat the loss and bring cash to closing?
what agent or who do i contact for selling my manufactured home
3 beds, fireplace, master bath, extra full bath, kitchen, family room, breakfast nook, dining room, attic, shed, and a 1/2 screened-in back porch. No homes behind us.
Downsizing from a $1.3M Boca house to a $700k condo. How much of my tax cap follows me?
Hi all, hoping someone can sanity check this for me. We've owned in Boca since 2006. Market value is around $1.3M, assessed is about $610k, so there's a big Save Our Homes gap sitting there. Now that the kids are out we're downsizing, looking at roughly $700k in Delray. I always assumed the whole cap just comes with us. A friend says no, if you buy cheaper you only get a portion of it. Is that right, and roughly what would actually transfer on those numbers? Other thing is we were planning to sell first and rent for a year while we figure out where we want to land. Does that gap cost us anything, or is there a deadline I should be watching? Thanks in advance, this is the part of moving I understand the least.

Will traditional agents avoid showing my home if I list it with a discount or flat-fee brokerage?
I am getting ready to put my property on the market and am considering a discount brokerage that charges a much lower listing fee than the standard local rate. However, I have heard rumors that agents representing buyers might be less inclined to show my home if they think the commission structure is different or if they expect a more difficult transaction. I want to make sure my home gets maximum exposure to all potential buyers regardless of the firm I choose to represent me during the sale.

Who is responsible for signing the listing agreement when a property is owned by a revocable living trust?
We are getting ready to sell a vacation property that was placed in a trust several years ago for estate planning purposes. There are multiple beneficiaries involved, and we are unclear if everyone needs to sign the contract or if only the designated trustee has the authority to execute the sale. We want to avoid any delays once we find a buyer and move toward the closing date in the coming months.

What is the best way for seniors to downsize from a Palos Verdes home?
My parents have owned their home in Palos Verdes Estates for many years and are beginning to consider downsizing. What is the best way to plan the transition, including deciding whether to sell before buying, decluttering and preparing the home, understanding Proposition 19 and possible tax implications, and finding a smaller home or senior-friendly community nearby? We would also like to know which professionals should be involved and how far in advance families should begin preparing.
