Short Sales in Botanica Lakes, Fort Myers

Short Sales offer clear value for those willing and able to wait.  That being said, however they are not for everyone.  It is a play and wait game with an uncertain outcome where you have only limited if any control of the outcome.  Many factors go in to the successful conclusion of a short sale.  Let's face it, the bank is being asked to accept less (and often times, much less) than the ammount they lent.  If you lent someone $100,000.00 would you be enthusiastic about getting only half of that ammount back?  Of course not and neither are they.  Regardless of what you think about banks you must understand that they entered a contract with the borrower to lend them money and the borrower agreed to pay it back with interest.  When that contract is breached the bank does everything it can to limit the damages.

Banks want to minimize their losses.  They only consider short sales when they are convinced that it is in their best interest.  The reason they consider it is because Foreclosure is a time consuming and costly process.  Due to Federal and State laws due process takes time and costs money.  On top of that the homes often sit in disrepair without electricity thus ventilation.  This adversely affects the value of the property.  Banks know and compute the costs associated with all of this and use this knowledge to set their price.  If they will derive more by making a short sale they will.  If not they will do a foreclosure.
