Redding CA ~ Short Sale ~ Helping Clients with Short Sales Without Giving Legal or Financial Help--It has become every more critical to not advise our clients on whether they should do a short sale or at least in the state of California.
I take great care to tell my clients that they must research and educate themselves on whether they can and should do a short sale. The only consistent element of this current market and dealing with the banks is that everything changes and there is never one consistent trend going on.
I take great care to let my clients know that they must speak with a Real Estate Attorney and a Financial Advisor to determine if in their case the short sale option is best for them.
Redding CA ~ Short Sale ~ Helping Clients with Short Sales Without Giving Legal or Financial Help--While I have the skills and experience to do the short sale, I am not equipped to advise them on a financial or legal basis what will be the best option for them going forward. I clearly state that I will not do a short sale until they look me in the face and say that they have determined the short sale is the best option for them.
California has long been "thought" to be a pervasively "non-judicial" foreclosure state. We are now hearing that some banks are choosing to do a "judicial" foreclosure. A "non-judicial" foreclosure means that the house is sold at the courthouse steps (less costly) and that the only liability for the house is the house itself. A "judicial" foreclosure is achieved through the court system and results in a judgment against the homeowner for any number of things including court costs and loan balance.
Redding CA ~ Short Sale ~ Helping Clients with Short Sales Without Giving Legal or Financial Help--It appears that some banks are not trying harder to help the homeowner but doing the reverse to "hammer" the homeowner. It is so critically important when advising our clients that we provide the trending market conditions and the latest news in our local and state markets. The other side of the coin is that some homeowners are getting loan modifications. I tell my clients educated yourself about your options and make the best decision you can to protect yourself.
