A short sale should never be the first choice a Seller performs because with it carries serious negative credit and, possibly, tax consequences. If a Seller takes any other actions other than full payment of the mortgage note they will have negative credit consequences.

The elements of a successful short sale are generally these:

 


  • The property is worth less than is owed.
  • The seller has some hardship that makes it impossible or extremely impractical for the seller to keep the property.
  • The seller is cooperative and willing to work with a real estate broker to package the short sale.
  • The lender is contacted and expresses willingness to entertain a short sale.
  • The property is listed, with appropriate caveats and protections for the seller, properly priced, and effectively marketed.
  • The lender is presented with an offer, accepted by the seller, along with a completed short sale package and narrative explaining why the short sale is necessary and desirable.
  • The lender approves the offer and escrow closes as usual. No proceeds go to the seller.

If you are a homeowner that needs additional information on marketing your property as a potential short sale. Please fill out the form below and I will contact you as soon as possible to help you try and sell your home before your lender forecloses on your property.
