I believe between her selling her home, dealing her family, and her grandfather health she might have been overwhelmed. I just hate it impacted me in a negative way. It was recorded the following Monday.

At signed usually the buyer signs loan docs. At signing seller is usually signing over the deed. All h th r large read documents were long before final signing day. Nothing to take home to read at signing. During the 60 day escrow all the disclosures. Home inspection appraiser and escrow documents are given long before closing. Anyway sellers not moving before at closing is not that uncommon. Suggestion: next time if a seller is. It out before closing , have escrow leave in escrow 20k of the seller proceeds and they get it release when u notify them the seller has moved out.

So i bought a house the seller wanted quick close . My offer was above asking price, all cash , as is where is and 30 day closing. The owner accepted. Everything went fine until we were at the closing table. She was willing to sell the house but wanted to stay until her other place (out of state) was ready. Well that shut the whole process down. In my state you can do that for a maximum of 5 days and have to pay an exorbitant daily rate and put money in account ( like a security deposit) the agreement was 10k. Once all the additional paperwork was drawn up we preceed with the closing. On our move in day guess what????...... Yep she was still there. We didn't know what to do at that point. The neighbor came over and seeing the situation tried to help us. Eventually a family friend showed up with a u haul and moved the rest of her stuff out. She was yelling and crying we stole her house...cops came . It truly was a spectacular event to behold. Even her realtor came.

We almost bought a house from a couple getting divorced. She claimed they couldn’t take less than a certain dollar amount. The house was two years since they bought and we could see what it sold for. They had done almost nothing to it (we could see the previous pictures ) so not much rationale for a lot of gains. It was not a new build. I prayed and said okay, we will give you full asking price even though comps show you are too high if you throw in ten fake plants. They had a bunch of silk plants decorating a high shelf - like 40 of them. They countered that we had to buy the fake plants. That told me they were being greedy and lying about having to get that price to be able to sell. Our agent called and said we will walk. We bought another house that day. The next day the husband called back and changed his mind. Our realtor was worried the wife would refuse to move out. It took two more years for that house to sell and it sold for less than our offer. Our realtor was right. The wife didn’t want to move. The house finally sold when a court order was issued to force her to sell it. It was two blocks from where we bought so we watched the process play out

This kind of happened with my first house close to close. The seller decided that she no longer wanted to sell, but I made it very clear if that that's what she wanted to do i would sue for damages and she closed. There's a lot of legal ramifications for any seller that tries to back out of a contract once you're in escrow up to forcing them to sell you the house. Unless it's excluded in the sellers agreement anything that still in the house is part of the deal. Normally any good agents gonna advise their client against trying to back out of the contract because it could be quite costly for them.

I called them & they said they thought they could live there until they closed on their house in 3 weeks…..that would be a NEGATIVE!!! The next morning I called the lawyer to say sellers had not moved out. He said closing was cancelled & never ever sign & transfer money because the sellers could stay there as squatters & would require court proceedings to get them out which could take months.

When we were selling my mother's house, the exchange was supposed to happen at 9 AM. I was still sleeping when they showed up in front of the house with two large trucks at 6 AM. I had to drive upstate four hours with two dogs and needed that extra time to do a final cleaning, especially the backyard. Well I felt rushed out and didn't have time to do that. Oh well, they had to deal with the shit, lol!

We had sellers do that to us. We were at the settlement table and they hadn't even started moving out. The moving truck with our belongings was at the curb and they were having their coffee. They had asked the day before if they could delay the move for a week. We told them no, that all the arrangements had already been made. Their agent suggested we rent them the house daily until they could move. My agent said absolutely no. We had a dry settlement, meaning we completed the paperwork but no money would change hands until they were out. A truck showed up hours after the scheduled settlement. What do people think a settlement is?? People are crazy and they will cost you time and money to have things their way.

Oh my goodness! So glad you got your house. Had a insane situation 2 months ago. We bought and did the final a walk through a few days before closing because I had a gut feeling something was weird . When we got to shed that we had never seen because she claimed she had lost the key during the initial showing and the inspection, she also said she was worried about expensive tools during showings, so it had been locked . So, I as the buyer demanded her agent open the shed inmediately. HOLY Crap!!! Rats!! there were huge rats, almost cat sized rats in there and it smelled like hell poop everywhere and a broken freezer . I lost my shite, my agent almost fainted 😂😂😂 so told my agent that unless seller got a biohazard crew and cleaned that mess up we were walking away from the sale. We threatened lawsuit as we had trusted that everything was fine in the big shed and it was only a broken /lost key issue. She did clean it spotless but took her sweet time vacating property.... We only got access next day. That shed is about to become my guest house /art studio so I can host family. But I will never forget that horrible gigantic Rat. It was gutted we are painting it. 😂Definitely not the happy ever after home owner story I had envisioned 😂❤

What a nightmare. I've had a couple crazy closings. First house I bought was a divorce sale. Both parties showed up with a lawyer and started arguing about who was paying what (mind you, the were small fees totaling less then $300-400). Could hear them fighting two floors up. My last house I sold was a nightmare. Not only was it constantly being delayed but on the day of the closing my lawyer was late, the buyers insurance cancelled his policy (house has a 100yr old slate roof that passed inspection, but they didn't care) so he had to scramble to get insurance. Then they cut the checks wrong and had to redo them...what a PITA. I had to run from that closing to the one for my new home...that went so smooth were were in and hour in less then 30 mins.

We specifically asked whether the home we were purchasing was haunted. In my state, a haunting must be disclosed to any prospective sellers. We were assured there had never been a haunting. Moved in and the neighbors couldn't wait to tell us about all the creepy things that have occurred inside the home over the years. Two plumbers working together on our pipes had a physical apparition appear before them. They knew they weren't seeing things and made me sit with them the entire job. When they were finished, they told me I couldn't call them for service anymore.

I am looking for a fixer-upper. I ASK THE SAME THING!!! I lived in an apartment that had the devil's brother in it! It was horrible and terrifying!! I was tormented for much of the year that I was there. Years later, I moved to a rental house, where a man and a woman appeared frequently to my 8 year old son. He constantly told me about the appearances. One morning, I was awakened with them standing over me smiling. Kind spirits who dressed in black and white. She had on a long black, long sleeved dress with a white bonnet and long white apron. He had on a black suit and top hat with a white shirt and a black shoestring-like tie. She was holding a large wooden bowl and a wooden spoon. I immediately called my landlord, who had purchased a new house and rented that one out. She confirmed that her young son had experienced the same thing and had described them the same way. I did not move immediately because the spirits were kind, and they never appeared again. As a child, my parents moved to a haunted house that was a nightmare!!! That evil spirit kept slamming the doors in the house and would try to set the house on fire when something was cooking! The fire department finally condemned the house and had it torn down because of the horror stories and attempts at burning the house down. Those incidents occurred when I lived in Arkansas. I don't know how this video popped up in my feed, but thank you @oh_sheena2312 for sharing your experience. I have learned so much from you and the various people posting.

That isn't A guarantee of no problems. Our friends once bought a brand new house from a builder and at the walk through before closing it was full of unfinished work. Their realtor wanted to hold back some money until the contractor finished but proceed wth the closing. Their attorney advised against it, saying the builder might not show up to finish the work and just let them keep the money. They would need to then hire someone else to finish the work. They wisely listened to their attorney and the builder finished the work with his entire crew the next day, as he needed the money from the sale.

First, congrats on your new home! May it bring you many wonderful days and memories! As both a first time homebuyer and first time home seller I have shady closing stories! On the buyer side, the house was being sold by the original owner who was in a nursing home. His oldest son who was his legal guardian sold the house without telling his sibling (brother), who was promised the home by the father when he died. The sibling showed up at closing and tried to stop the sale of the house. Eventually, things worked out and I got the house, but there was a delay of several months! On the seller side, at closing the buyer of my house didn't have enough money to cover their closing costs which meant that both agents (mine and the buyer's) would have to wait to get paid. My agent was pissed and caused a scene at the closing table! Luckily, they did have enough money to wire the funds into my bank account. I've learned when it comes to what is often the biggest financial purchase of most people's lives, you need two important things money can't buy, patience and a sense of humor!

My dad and step mom said no. Turns out they never had any intention of buying. They wanted to rent it. My dad and step mom refused to release escrow earnest money. They took my parents to small claims court. They showed all the receipts and counter sued for the excess cost. They had to move into a rental and move back. They won and the buyer ended up having to pay thousands in damages. Their realtor tried to talk them into giving up the earnest money. Nope.

We sold and bought a home a year ago. We didn't have to attend the closing for our house sale as we signed all the papers at our attorney's office days beforehand. The seller of our new house did the same, so we just went to our Attorney's office at that closing. We had to wait an hour afterwards for the seller to finish moving out. They were doing it themselves with a rental truck and their teenage son as they were only moving 8 blocks away and it took longer than they anticipated. We waited patiently at a coffee shop so we weren't breathing down their necks pressuring them. Our moving company with our furniture wasn't coming till the next day. We just wanted to clean the insides of the kitchen cabinets and fridge, vacuum the floors and shampoo the carpets before our furnitue came. We immediately called a locksmith to change all the locks. There was some debris in the basement and garage that our realtor contacted the seller to remove and they did so the next day. This was the third house we bought in our lifetime and was by far the easiest one over the entire process. Our previous experiences had some unexpected nightmares, so we appreciate what you went through. Enjoy your new home.

This is why you write into the real estate contract a large amount per day for the rental if the seller doesn’t vacate on time. $500 - 1000 per day usually works. If they don’t vacate typically you are going to have to go through the eviction process and they will owe the rent.

Frankly, it’s also a lesson on how even the realtor representing you is really just representing the “sale” otherwise they would have “coached” you regarding a clause about rental fee if the property wasn’t vacated timely. In many states that is part of the uniform real estate contract. The last time we bought a house OUR realtor said “what about the children” regarding the SELLERS kids when we were working out closing/vacancy I’m like “what about me being in a month to month rental for two times what this mortgage payment is going to be”? (The sellers wanted a fast close but delayed vacancy). It became painfully obvious to me that someone I’d spent time with didn’t have my best interest in mind in the transaction.

No one comes back and takes things from a property after closing. We just sold my brother's home and anything there at closing stayed.

I hear ya. Thank goodness it wasn’t the sellers who took it and they were able to get it returned to the property

I'm happy it all worked out. Buying and selling can have its challenges. I've been on both ends. It's normally a great experience but as you see people can try to ruin that for you! Glad you kept your cool and congratulations!🎉

3 things I've always done when buying a house... before closing, get a pin and stake survey of the property. Have a locksmith there upon closing to change and Replace ALL locks and closures on the house as well as any out buildings. Double check the title, any easements/ formal and informal, use of the property by non owners, utilities, neighbors by foot or vehicle.

You must do a video inventory of the entire property -- inside and out -- after your offer is accepted and just before you take the keys! That way you document condition and what fixtures are present or expected to remain.

Newly weds, we bought a house, a fixer-upper, moved in, started renovations. I noticed the drapes and blinds next door kept moving and gapping, or they suddenly had gardening chores when we stepped outside. As soon as my husband left for work the neighbor would call out to me, I'd smile, wave, hoping that was it, nope... yack-yack-yack. Then one day, I'm in the garage working on a project, had a bucket of wet concrete waiting to pour and the neighbor lady decides she needs a conversation. I kept gesturing to the bucket and telling her I couldn't talk right then and even tried turning my back and ignoring her, yack-yack-yack. Another day I was in the basement where my stained glass studio was and I heard a knock, I went upstairs and peeked, yup, it was her, again. She knocked and knocked, then she went window to window all the way around the house, "HELLO??? ANYBODY HOME???" By that point in time I was so frustrated, I felt trapped in my own home and I just sat there on the basement stairs crying my eyes out. We went back and spoke to the realtor, and he got that 'busted' look on his face, turns out he'd been trying to sell that house for over 9 months and the neighbor lady ruined each and every showing, he literally threatened her with a lawsuit if she stepped outside, peeked out the window or opened her mouth when he showed the house. HE KNEW!!! He knew she was a problem and let us walk right into it!!! The deal was done, papers signed, key delivered, we were stuck with the neighbor from hell! I've since moved on, but is there any recourse in such a situation?

Wow! That realtor would owe me big time😂😂😂. We visited the neighborhood at different times of the day to get a feel for it, never saw the neighbor outside. As soon as we moved in the neighbor walked over and she happened to know my family (small town). She probably came by every other day, just to chat. It reminded me of the feeling of having my grandparents alive. Shortly afterwards she put their home on the market to move closer to their kids for help with her husband. Last year another neighbor brought me the obituary from his passing. Im glad things got better for you. I don’t know how one could know the behavior of the neighbors without being told but the realtor definitely could have said something if only to keep a good name. Who would want to refer a realtor that knowingly withheld information.

I bought my house that’s on a lake 10 yrs ago. The first contract expired with the seller not signing it. Well, I up the amount by 20K on the house and the seller sign the contract then, my agent put in the contract I would pay more then the asking price if the appraisal came back more only. Well it didn’t come back more, the seller was mad and my agent told me to get another house. I call the seller and we agreed that he will accept the 100K for the house, but I will pay every thing else and I did. I pay my agent and property taxes and some more fees, but I got the lake house and now it’s the values at 245k and still, I wouldn’t accept that amount because it’s on a lake. The 2 houses that are crosse the street are also price that and ain’t on the lake price and they don’t have a lake in the back yard. Now house on my side of the street are all on the lake, but got the same value as the ones that ain’t on the lake.
