Whether buying or selling a home, the real estate transaction process can seem overwhelming and confusing. Who are the people involved, and what is each person’s role in the real estate transaction process? What does a real estate transaction actually mean?

A real estate professional will assist with questions and concerns along the way, but knowing who is involved and what to expect will alleviate many potential worries.

What Is a Real Estate Transaction?

A real estate transaction is the process that occurs when a seller offers their home for sale, and a buyer agrees to purchase that property.

There are many steps involved in buying a house, and the steps vary depending on the type of transaction and state regulations. Before the closing can take place, and before the title of the property transfers to the buyer, a multitude of activities and tasks must be completed on time.

The real estate agents involved are primarily responsible for these tasks; however, the buyer and seller must complete their tasks expeditiously.

In recent weeks we’ve seen a flurry of takeover deals, arguably the likes of which we haven’t witnessed since the late 1980’s when the Prudential, Halifax and the like were hoovering up estate agency chains like freeloading relatives at a wedding buffet.

Countrywide has become Connells. Douglas & Gordon reverse into Foxtons, as Hunters are absorbed by TPFG, Gibbs Gillespie are taken in by Leaders Romans and Dexters buys Roy Brooks. This is all in less than three months of the year beginning and rumour has it that there are more takeover surprises to come in 2021 still, especially now that Dexters have ‘kids in a candy store’ money.

It seems illogical that you as the seller would offer up money to the buyer to help pay for your home. Aren’t you supposed to make money from selling your home, not give it away? Well, you might think twice after you learn the reasons why you’d offer cash back at closing to buyers.

Sure you’ve beautifully staged your home and placed out a tray of delicious mini muffins for the open house, but unfortunately, that still might not be enough to snag an interested buyer offer.

"It is not surprising to see a lot of luxury retailers say, ‘Do we really need to be here paying these incredibly high rents?’” said one expert.

High-end fashion stores on New York’s Fifth Avenue used to play the role of a showroom, where shoppers could browse through curated racks of clothes with a glass of champagne. However, with shopping at a near standstill and in-store sales hovering at zero, that prime real estate is becoming a drag on retailers’ balance sheets.

Facebook has been hiring seasoned tech investors to help lead a new "multimillion dollar" investment fund within its experimental apps team, Axios has learned.

Why it matters: Starting a formal investing program aimed at startups could bolster the company's ability to spot the next big social app before it becomes big. That visibility is all the more important given that antitrust scrutiny has likely closed the door on large acquisitions by Facebook for the near future.
