There's a home I've been looking at and it looks nice and within my budget, it's been on the market for a while though and it looks like a couple of buyers have fallen through... is there any way to get more information than just what's in the listening besides touring and inspecting once under contract?

Work with a realtor and see if they can ask the sellers agent why it’s fallen through

If the previous offers had inspections and backed out because problems were found I believe that has to be disclosed (at least where I am?).

Can you tell when it went to pending and back on the market? That can also give a clue. For example, if it went back close to the 30/60 day mark it’s very possible that the buyers financing fell through. Even if that happens multiple times it could just be a coincidence (it happened with a house in my town where the sellers just had really bad luck for a while!).

I would just talk with your agent about it. A good one will give you any information they legally/ethically can.

If you are working with a realtor they should be able to get you the disclosures on the property. Most sellers will disclose issues caught by the inspection in the listing but it doesn't hurt to ask.

When do you know you've toured enough houses and should pick one from the list you've got? I've seen probably 15-20 homes, and put in one offer. How many homes should you tour minimum, and how many offers did you put in before you closed? I don't want to be too hasty and choose something just because, but I also think continuing to see homes isn't really making my decision any easier. Thanks!

My new home construction will be done by March/April 2023. As there is a little dip in mortgage rates now is it better to lock the rates now ? I am in dilemma to lock the rates now or wait for few more months as I have time till March 2023.

Anyone here willing to connect/talk about buying a house in Toronto. Would really appreciate it. I am just overwhelmed thinking about it and not taking any action.

Would like some thoughts on a 2-br NYC condo my husband and I are considering. $250K HHI (no kids). No loans or debts, both have newish cars fully paid off.

Offer would be for $725K, with 10 percent down. 30yr mortgage @5%. We would need to include closing costs in the mortgage, to keep about $10k liquid. Monthly costs will be about $5k.

This unit is special, very rare (we’ve rented in the area for 10 yrs and know the local market well). Should we go for it?

Seeking some advice for home buying. Went under contract on a new construction back in March, was originally supposed to be ready in August but has been delayed until November. I’ve began getting quotes for mortgage rates through lenders and the best I’ve seen so far is 5.75% (excellent credit, dp at 10%) at a 60 day lock. Debating if I should test my luck with the market to see if rates will drop or if I should go ahead and lock my rate in before Rates increase even more
