My December Short Sale Success Stories!
7601 N. Winter View Drive, Coeur d’Alene
What a Christmas blessing it was for this little family to avoid foreclosure and be released from liability for the deficiency between what their home sold for and their mortgage balance. At closing, their lender, Bank of America, paid their outstanding utility bills and their delinquent property taxes. They were thrilled to actually receive a big check from Bank of America at closing for moving and relocation expenses!
