Who benefits from the Short Sale?
Short sales are a win-win situation. Lenders, Mortgagees and Realtors all benefit from the successful short sale. Mortgagors get the majority of their money back, Mortgagees get the relief they need and are able to sell their property and avoid foreclosure, and Realtors can facilitate the transaction and receive compensation (commission the bank pays) from the sale of the property.

Why would banks forgive the difference?
To mitigate their losses, banks often accept a settlement of less than what is … (0 comments)

Bank Foreclosure filings eased in December down 2 percent from November and down 26 percent from December 2009.  This is the biggest drop in foreclosure since 2005 according to reports.  We believe this drop is not a trend but a function of the hullabaloo surrounding foreclosure documentation and robo-signing scandal by banks.  A lot of major lenders for the short term halted some foreclosure proceedings as they reviewed there foreclosure processes.  Adding to the slowdown in foreclosure filings in California is a improved willingness for banks to consider … (0 comments)
