Re: Just got a call from someone asking to buy my house
Housing is not permanently going to be more expensive (in real terms). Maybe for the next few years, but once the real economy is dealt with, the bidding wars will be long gone. Housing always reverts back to the historical mean average adjusted for inflation. What is happening now is not normal and is not going to last.

Re: Just got a call from someone asking to buy my house
SOOOOO

My daughter got a call from someone wanting to buy my house. she's not even listed on the property. there is no way they could have gotten her number.

They said my house is absentee homeownership. AND the only way they would construe that information is from the US Census.

Holy Shit, if China has the US Census information we are fucked.
 Quoting: Agent 99


Lol..census data.

Dude, you realize its 2021 right? They have extensive profiles on every registered American.

What do you think Solar Winds does?

And thats all just bonus material for the real information, DNA.... everyones, yours included.

Welcome to the big show.

Re: Just got a call from someone asking to buy my house
Well, NW Arkansas is different, because people are moving here in droves from all over the country. I hear ten people a day move to my nearest city. People are complaining that it’s impossible to buy a house and it looks like the prices are shooting up.

Anyway our previous realtor texted me a few weeks ago asking if we would consider selling to their client. I ignored it. We love our house. Plus I own the lot next door. I figure having a double lot makes my house look like a double fat hog to investors.

Re: Just got a call from someone asking to buy my house
So I just got a call where the guy was asking if I'd be open to selling my house. Guy said he was from a "real estate investment group".

Pretty odd if you ask me. I told him I'd sell for $1,000,000.00. The weird part was he didn't flinch he just wanted to confirm the address. I wouldn't confirm my address so he said thanks and hung up.

I googled the number and a bunch of Chinese writing showed up.

What's really going on?
 Quoting: BananaFighter


I get a phone call like that every couple weeks for a house that my name is nowhere on the deed or mortgage. I live in the house they're inquiring about but my name is not in any way associated with owning it. So every time I ask where they got my number and they always hang up on me. LOL.... Not funny really - one of them stayed on the line and said they bought the information from a company. And yes, every single one of those phone calls is from Asian accent voices. We live in an area that is 65% Asian now. My husband lived here all his life and inherited the house from his mother - this happened like in the last 20 years or so. At city council meetings the entire city council is Asian and won't let white people speak, told them China owns this city now. I've been complaining heavily to my husband that this is NOT the neighborhood he grew up in and its time to leave but he won't hear of it - too sentimental about this house and likes having original tax rate....

Re: Just got a call from someone asking to buy my house
Im a real estate agent and this is a real thing. Real estate investment trusts (REITs) call people directly to try to buy their house. It's because they have money to invest and there are not enough houses on the market. American Homes For Rent is one example of a REIT. Even companies like Zillow are doing this now. That's not to say their are not shady companies or even scams out there but this is becoming more popular. Typically they will offer you a fair price but they will then do an inspection and want to reduce the price for every little thing.

Low supply of housing. People are desperate to find houses right now.

Which is silly, because you can buy land and build a house or put a trailer on it.

I could b wrong, but I think the entire US Housing system is going to collapse again within a few years.

I've been getting text messages at least once every other month asking me if I want to sell my home. I feel like they are trying to verify I live at the address they got so I ignore them or simply say no.

Re: Just got a call from someone asking to buy my house
They contact me constantly telling me I can get gobs of cash for our house. Practically begging me to sell. It's a crazy housing market right now but if you sell and you have to buy another your screwed. If you can sell and live in a rental or something like that you're golden. I have watched housing markets go up and bust many times in my life. I can assure you the market bubble will burst just like it always does and that's the time to buy. Now is the time to sell if you can and want to make some cash.

Re: Just got a call from someone asking to buy my house
There's quite a few houses for sale by me but they get multiple offers, like 5-10, within hours of being listed and are being bought sight unseen its crazy. Im trying to buy right now and its incredibly frustrating.
 Quoting: D33PSTAT3


What state or region are you in? It's happening in north Texas where I heard a realtor say they had 42 offers in just a couple days and all were site unseen and sold for 10's of 1000's over ask. No one can believe it. Now the home prices will be driven up more than they already are leading to a property tax crisis as Texas has some of the highest in the country and people can no longer afford to stay in their homes because of the tax.

Re: Just got a call from someone asking to buy my house
I get those weekly about a house they think I own in Memphis, I have started screwing with them. Having them meet me at the address late at night, having them bring cash etc.... I also started telling them that my mom lives next door and the only way I would sell is if it was to a white couple single white person and they would have to agree in writing that they would not resell or rent to anyone black, Middle Eastern or Hispanic because I would not want those type people living around my mother.

For the record, I have no house in Memphis, never have had and never plan on. The person that does own that house has the exact same name and birthday as me. I have a 1st name that was very popular in the 1700's but not so much now but men in my family have carried that name generations It is crazy that he was born on the same day as me and has the same name.
