Cross-posting: Im trying to flip a new build - long story, but have had certain circumstances come up and can't keep the home - but I'm now competing with the builder because they have homes still being built in the neighborhood (there is nothing against me selling it). They have started offering added incentives and low balling due to market conditions. What do I have and what can I do to sell mine? Or should I give up and just rent it out and wait? Any advice appreciated.

You can sell it for about the same or cheaper than the builder or you can rent it out.

Some new builders are offering incentives to buy down mortgage rates. Sell for cheaper or rent it out.

Renting seems like the best approach in this situation.
Not only are you competing with the builder on price but you also need to keep in mind that you’ll need to pay a ~6% commission to your realtor should you choose to sell
