All the folks cashing in after 13 months, etc., better remember that it is a short term gain, not eligible for the primary residence exemption. The profit will be taxed as normal earned income in their tax bracket. Those selling a home for $ 1.5, etc., are probably in the 32-37% tax bracket. Wait at least two years if you can.

no home inspection
I don't give a shite how much you want the house, this is a fricking TERRIBLE idea... even if they were giving the house away for free!

2005 all over again folks. What makes any of this crap construction worth any more than a year ago?

timing... interest rates are going up, from historic lows, so everyone is trying to capitalize before it goes up too much... sellers, knowing their shite won't sit on the market too long are motivated to put their house up, and buyers, wanting to buy a house with low interest rates... problem is there are many more people wanting to buy than are willing to sell, thus drastically low inventory, meaning the inventory that is there is seeing a surge in interested buyers and surging prices

I remember when 4.5% 30 year fixed was a great rate 4 or so years ago. I still consider it to be low. It’s not like 6 or 7%.

Live in Raleigh and put a “Coming Soon” sign out late Friday. Saturday had no look full ask offer. Sunday someone driving by saw me outside so stopped to talk. Offered 10k over list and we wouldn’t have to fix anything, not that there’s anything that needs fixing. Doesn’t actually go on the market until Friday and we’re expecting a stampede.

Sold our house. Cash, no inspection, no appraisal, absolutely ZERO contingencies. Located in BR.
I just bought sight unseen, no inspection and went over the asking price to avoid an open house showing. I hate this housing market.

That’s retarded. You always do an inspection

The owners weren't showing the house until the open house. No individual viewing and they were already getting offers. I guess you're not trying to buy in this market.

That doesn’t seem to be an issue when they’re willing to go 10-15k above asking price.
OP, just because something appraises at a certain price, does not mean that’s what you deem the home worth to you. Currently, the housing market is definitely an advantage to the seller.

I'm feeling the pain here in Arkansas as well
Fiance has to be close to the hospital in Little Rock and I work in Stuttgart but don't mind the 55 min drive. Every house is pretty much 20-40k over market value and if I want it, I'll have to pay cash to get it.
I thought we were in a pandemic and nobody had jobs or money?

Econ 101, quantity demanded exceeds available supply, price rises until equilibrium is reached.
