National headlines describe a housing market frozen by high rates, but Charlotte doesn’t fit that picture neatly. Homes are still selling there, and close to their asking prices. What has changed is how much separates the winners from the rest. A well-located, well-kept, realistically priced house still moves, while one that needs work or overreaches ...
Durham’s housing market is sorting homes by condition and price. Emily Godrich of Heart NC Realty Group sees both outcomes: her two most recent Durham listings each sold within five days with multiple offers, while other homes in the market are not selling right away.

Non-refundable due diligence fees, earnest money deposits, inspection costs, and appraisal fees are all paid before the buyer has a clear picture of a property’s actual condition.

Most people buying, selling, or investing in New York real estate now ask ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini about their deal before they ever speak to a lawyer. According to Alexander Paykin, Esq., founder of Paykin Law, that now describes the majority of clients who come to his firm. Many arrive with an AI-generated strategy already ...
