selling: 5 Great Reasons to Sell Your House Today - 09/07/11 02:55 PM
"To sell or not to sell?" That is the question. If you are debating whether or not now is the right time to sell your home you may want to consider the following 5 reasons why selling your house now is a great idea.

selling: When Should Homeowners Walk Away? - 06/24/09 01:13 PM
In a complicated market like todays, it is hard to know whether you should keep your home or walk away from it. Many homeowners have watched their property values drop over 25 percent, sometimes more. Some say the market hasn't even hit the bottom yet.
Some homeowners are beginning to wonder if staying in their home is even worth it anymore. Some wonder, "If I owe more on the mortgage than the house is worth, why throw good money after bad?" When homeowners are thinking of walking away, they need to remind themselves of why they purchased the home, when they … (1 comments)

selling: Diary of a Short Sale - Part 2 - 05/29/09 01:36 PM
I continued to work very hard to get the short sale approved without a the Promissory Note requirement. A little reminder from Part 1 regarding the background situation, the home is in Gilbert, AZ and is protected under the Arizona anti-deficiency statues since it is the original purchase money mortgage. The owners put down 10% and have a 90% mortgage with Wells Fargo.
After many attempts to get Radian to remove the Promissory Note removed, they would not budge. I spoke with Vince the VP at Radian for Loss Mitigation. A very rude individual that just yelled at me regarding the short sale. He was quoting … (0 comments)

selling: Diary of a Short Sale - 03/27/09 08:09 PM
I have just had my first Short Sale that did not reach a successful agreement and I am broken hearted for the owners. These people are in a true financial hardship with a job loss and medical issues as well as medical collection accounts. Their only shred of dignity left would have been to avoid a foreclosure on their credit by doing a short sale.
Issue #1? The owner's dilemma- to foreclosure or short sale? This home is Fannie Mae insured with Wells Fargo as the servicer. These people did everything right. They put 10% down on a fully documented loan. No "Liar … (5 comments)

selling: Clutter-Free Helps Sell Homes - 01/12/09 04:19 PM
A new year brings new motivation. To some of you, that might mean giving your homes a good cleaning. It is a way to clear both the physical and mental clutter and, if you're selling your home, it's a must-do to help draw in potential buyers.
Hard to believe, but cleaning and de-cluttering your home can increase the amount of the sales price and cost you as little as a few hundred dollars, if you use professionals, to complete the job. That small amount is little to pay when it is getting your home organized to escalate the chances of selling your home.
Most of us have more than we need. … (0 comments)

selling: Success with Short Sales - 12/23/08 01:32 PM
Deciding between a short sale or a foreclosure may sound like choosing of the lesser of two evils, but a short sale is a thousand times better for a distressed homeowner.
Foreclosures and short sales take up nearly 40 percent of recent home sales. Nearly 12 million homeowners are upside down with their mortgages and the number is growing, according to RealtyTrac. It is also estimated that number of homeowners will increase to 15 million within a year's time.
Successful short sales have the least amount of consequences for the homeowner. In short sales, debts are forgiven and are non-taxable. Short sales do not challenge most security … (0 comments)

selling: New plan seeks to streamline loan mods - 11/21/08 09:31 AM
Fannie, Freddie to lead the way
A new plan to streamline loan modifications for homeowners who have fallen behind on their mortgage payments could help "hundreds of thousands" of borrowers avoid foreclosure.
But the plan is far less ambitious than a competing proposal for the government to guarantee payments on as many 3 million loan modifications.
With Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac and the HOPE NOW alliance of 27 loan servicers standing behind it, the new streamlined modification program rolled out today by the Bush administration is expected to provide thousands of delinquent borrowers another alternative to foreclosure. In the past, much … (0 comments)
