Fort Collins Short Sales: Does escalating the file even work?

By
Real Estate Agent with Kittle Real Estate

Fort Collins CO – The Stop Foreclosure Institute recently received a question from Katie. Here was her question.

"I am an agent and I am helping someone short sell their house. X Lender (to remain unnamed) claims that they have sent a short sale package to the seller a couple of times. But, they haven’t because my customer has never received anything. What can I do? They won’t start the short sale process until they receive the filled out package back from the seller. Katie.”

Here was our recommendation to Katie.

Katie, you need to find out who owns the loan. Most likely it isn’t X Lender. Then, tell the lender representative person that you will contact the loan owner direct and let them know about their incompetence.

As an example, we recently told a negotiator at a large nationwide lender that we would contact all the VFW posts about their incompetence on a VA short sale.

Hi Bob,

You clearly have to roll up your sleeves and even show some teeth once in while. (OK, I mixed two metaphors in one sentence)

Anyway. Good for you for going to bat for the seller, and doing what you have to do...

In today's world, I'm also finding that letting an incompetent outfit know that a business-specific web site, pages on Facebook, and Tweets here and there can let the world know!

Happy Monday!
