Listing Your San Diego Home for Short Sale Step 4:

Let’s assume now you’re qualified for a short sale on your San Diego home and that you’ve found an expert to guide you safely through the process and that he or she has created a solid BPO and determined the “30-Day Sales Price”, that is, the price that you can reasonably expect to obtain from more than one motivated and qualified buyer(s) within 30 days.

In this stage, putting your San Diego home up for sale as a short sale is no different than listing your home for sale as you would a traditional sale except for the fact that you must advise interested buyers that any final sale is subject to lender approval.

And like a traditional sale, you have to fill out disclosure forms and have potential buyers come through and view the home.

But one thing that’s different is you probably don’t want to spend any money improving or fixing your home. You won’t realize any money from the sale, so why spend any?

Regarding the marketing, a true San Diego real estate professional will want to “fly the plane” so to speak. When it comes to having a sign or not having a sign, holding open houses or not holding open houses, a pro will gently insist you avoid coming up into the cockpit and trying to fly. Just like you, they don’t want their time or resources wasted.
