short sale: You'll Have to Cut Your Commission No Longer... - 03/03/09 04:04 AM
Fannie Mae PROHIBITS Short Sale Commission Negotiation by Lenders
Until just recently many banks were coming back in the middle of a short sale transaction and asking the agents to cut their commission.  Go figure...work harder and get paid less what a concept.  Well now Fannie Mae has announced that approval of short sales on Fannie Mae-backed loans may not be conditioned upon the listing broker accepting a lowered commission provided the total commission does not exceed 6 %.

Perhaps more lenders should follow suit and truly understand … (7 comments)

short sale: The NOD BLOG February 16, 2009 - 02/16/09 10:17 AM
The Notice of Default list is updated with a few new properties.  According to a forecast a the 'CRS Sellabration Event' in San Francisco last week, foreclosure will start to decline (nationally) as Short Sales pick up and Foreclosures will probably be back with a vengeance in 2011.  For now banks are trying to work with sellers to either do loan modifications or sell in a short sale.  The banks are quickly beginning to realize that they do not want to be in the Real Estate business.

short sale: Short Sale...You Mean a L O N G Sale??? - 02/12/09 03:28 AM
Short Sale??? You mean a LONG Sale...A short sale is the sale of real estate in which the proceeds from the sale fall short of the balance owed on a loan secured by the property being sold. In a short sale, the lender agrees to discount or forgive the loan balance due to an economic or financial hardship on the part of the seller or mortgagor. It is far from a short process and most people think this means that the escrow is closing in a short period of time. Not the case. A short sale takes a lot of hand … (4 comments)
