I am taking a poll on a scenario. An offer on a short sale vs and offer on a REO (bank Owned). 

First.. the buyer makes an offer on a property that is in short sale. 

The offer is approved. However the bank will not allow enough time for the buyer to close with the current Seller. 

The Bank offers the Buyer the same terms and price he has the the Seller being foreclosed on. 

Question: Will the Buyer considering that they have to write an entirely new offer with the Bank, offer the same price? Or because it is a Bank Owned property now, will they offer less?

If a buyer were to have an offer on a property currently involved in a short sale would that buyer if offered by the bank the same offer price ?

 

I would love to hear from you.

What are comps?  Does the buyer still want it?  Is the price & terms reasonable?  In our climate I would say they would take it because we have very little sellable inventory available (even though our inventory has climbed quite a bit since the tax credit expired.)

There is a hierarchy here with types of sales closed on net.  Trustee flips and standard sales net the highest, REO second highest and short sales are by far the lowest net.  People always complain (here on AR) that REO is listed for WAY below what the short price was but here that is not true, if you look at history when relisted, it is generally listed higher.

I do lots and lots of BPOs and see the numbers on a daily basis and it is pretty consistent.  I would say dig in to your MLS if you don't do BPOs and look at sale types in specific areas and see the difference in the prices.  Sometimes it is subtle but sometimes it is blatant.
