Short Sales - Requirements
The Home Owner Qualifies for a Short Sale with a Short Sale Package.
Here are the required items for a Short Sale
- 2 years Tax Returns ( Signed )
- 2 Most recent pay check stubs with YTD
- Financial Statement
- 2 Months Bank statements with bank logo
- Hardship Letter
* A hardship letter is a pitty letter to the lender. This is not a noval.... the letter needs to tell their story to the lender. It needs to be more than " I lost my job " It needs to tell how it has affected the family.
* No Tax returns: Blank paper write Tax returns as the top and explain why they don't have a tax return
* No pay stubs: Blank paper write Pay Stubs on to and explain why they dont have any.. like.. They lost their job. If they have Unemployment or Social Security, get a copy of this to turn in.
* No income, Social Security ect. Find out who is making their payment the payment for groceries, utilities ect.
* No banks statements because the took all money out and closed the account because they were trying to stay afloat.
This is a list of items needed to do a short sale * Other items could be added to the list from your lender
Thank! It is a great post simple and cleared.
