What are the top red flags in a Florida purchase contract sellers should watch for?
I'm about to list my home in Palm Beach County and my agent told me to expect multiple offers based on how the market is moving. I want to actually understand what I'm looking at when offers come in, not just stare at the price. What are the red flags in a purchase contract that tell you a buyer probably isn't going to close, even if their offer looks great on paper?
I want a different price for the house than my ex
Me and my ex-husband are selling our house, but we can't agree on a price. He wants to list it high and wait, but I want it gone now. Can the real estate agent pick a price for us, or do we have to go to mediation just to get the thing on the market?
Do I need to pay off solar panels before selling a house?
I bought solar panels last year and I'm still paying them off. If I sell my house, does the new buyer have to take over my monthly payments, or do I have to pay off the whole $25,000 balance at the closing table?

Should we sell our current home before we retire, or wait until we are ready to buy our downsizing condo?
My spouse and I are retiring in about two years and want to move into a smaller, single-story condo. Our current home is quite large and becoming difficult to maintain. We are trying to figure out if we should sell now and rent temporarily, or just hold off until we are completely ready to purchase the new place.

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?

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.

Why is my house not selling?
Beautiful house, big yard, good school. 40 days on market and only 2 people come see it. My agent says the market is slow but I see other houses sell fast. Is it my agent or my house? I am very frustrated.
