That’s a short sale.

Why are lenders so eager to take such a huge discount? Banks do not like bad loans. If they see an opportunity where they can sell the property without the huge loss of a foreclosure, they will do it. Some lenders report that if the home goes into foreclosure by the time the home actually closes with the new buyer, the lender will be lucky to net 50% of the original loan balance.

Bottom line from the lenders perspective!

They are in the business of lending money, not owning homes. If they can accept a short sale offer and rid themselves of the bad loan AND net more, verses the home going into foreclosure, they will do it every time. It’s simply smart business.

Time is not on your side when you are considering a short sale. You must act quickly and work only with an agent who is knowledgeable and certified in Short Sales who will not just take your listing. The agent you choose must be able to prepare the entire package, counsel you on your options and be able to market your home and price it to sell.

So What is A Certified Agent In Short Sales!

Many agents in the Real Estate Business are going after homeowners who are underwater or behind in their mortgage payments simply because they see opportunity to make money in this market. The problem comes in when they are giving out bad information, like telling people not to pay their mortgage payment when they are able too.

A trained professional will be able to evaluate your personal situation and provide a detailed program and a plan of attack to resolve your issues.

When you are ready to submit your request the package is professional prepared with every document that the bank needs and wants to see and they are in the proper order.

What happens if the package to the bank is not complete?

If the agent you select does not prepare the package completely and in its entirety the bank will just toss your package in the trash and your agent and you will not know what is going on with your short sale approval.

Empowering Our True Selves

When we choose to come from a place that is real, that touches who we really are, we are then coming from our true selves. We are empowering our destiny, our truth, and our calling in this life when we act from our true form, from who we really are and not just from our idea or perception of self. What does this mean? It means looking at ourselves truthfully and really seeing if we are true to who we are.

A short sale is a great way to sell your home and avoid the credit consequences of foreclosure. A short sale is basically the negotiation  with the lien holder for a payment of less then you owe.. If you’re on the brink of having your home foreclosed on it’s a good idea to start negotiations with your lender right away. Short sales are faster and less expensive than foreclosures. Foreclosure is not something you want to passively allow to occur, its detrimental to your life and should be avoided at all costs. A foreclosure will completely ruin your credit, lowering your score as much as 300 points! This is very difficult to recover from and in most cases takes years to bring your credit score back up. For the time after a foreclosure you will not be eligible for any types of credit such as loans, mortgage, credit cards, or even employment. Many employers check the credit of applicants (especially if the position involves handling of money) and poor credit history may not qualify you for the position.

A short sale is a great alternative to foreclosure but definitely should not be considered a good thing. Short sales will lower your credit score, Although much less than a foreclosure will. Homeowners should only consider going through with a short sale when foreclosure is eminent otherwise. The lenders will typically approve a short sale if they are losing less money out of the deal then if they foreclosed on your home. It’s important to understand that your lender is looking out for the companies best interest when negotiating a deal rather than yours.  A short sale is a long complicated process that is difficult for individuals to negotiate without professional help. Most people who need a short sale are usually “upside down” on their loan. This means they owe the bank more money than they can sell their house for. The whole purpose of a short sale is to get your lender to allow you to quickly sell your home for less than it’s worth  to prevent foreclosure. Your lender will receive all the proceeds from the sale.

If you are considering selling your home through a short sale the next important step is choosing a reputable company to negotiate on your behalf. When dealing with something as serious as negotiating a short sale with your lender it’s almost a must that you let an experienced attorney work on your behalf. The mortgage companies have attorneys working for them and so should you. You absolutely need an individual with extensive knowledge of the law to negotiate ideal terms for you the homeowner. There are many services out there that claim they can help you out, but if they don’t have attorneys on their staff its very unlikely they can negotiate the very best terms for you. A short sale is a maze of legal proceedings and documents that usually last about 6 months and when dealing with something as serious as your home its best to rely on the best organization you can. For starters you can check a company’s BBB (better business bureau )record for any complaints and see how long that company has been established.
