Palm Beach County Short Sales- Short Sales- Information For Sellers and Buyers.

We get calls at least 3 times a week from Sellers who no longer can make the payments on their home and are trying to find out what a short sale is and how it works. Most of the calls we have received this last week are from sellers who have already spoken to their attorneys and their attorneys are recommending that they sell their home using the short sale process.

This past week we listed 2 short sales where the seller found us on our Active Rain blog and called us after reading our posts about how to do a short sale. We had one owner call us to list his house but it would be better for him if he does whatever he can to keep his house, so we did not list his house for sale. Instead we are sending him to resources that may be able to help him keep his home.

If you are in the real estate industry you have heard of short sales but most of the general public has not heard of a short sale and does not know what a short sale is. So to sum it all up I am listing here the series of posts that we have created about what a short sale is and the process that you must go through on the seller and the buyer side of the short sale transaction. There are 7 parts to this series:

One of the most important things to know when you list your property as a short sale is that your property must be priced competitively enough to encourage offers from buyers. And if you are an agent you must not only have the foresight to know what a BPO will come in at but also to have some understanding on what a buyer's appraiser is going to be looking at for comps. Pricing a home too high will create headaches for a seller and in the end, possibly lose their home to foreclosure. At the same time, pricing too low will get offers that have no chance of being accepted since the lender is not going to approve sales too much lower than their BPO.

Please read the following story of a seller that wanted to price her home correctly but her agents priced her home too high.:

This is why it is so important, I can not stress this enough, that you choose an agent who knows how to do Palm Beach County Short Sales and has experience working with Short Sales. Ask your agent if they have closed on any short sales in your area. Selling your home as a short sale takes commitment, perserverance, patience and expertise in negotiations and follow through of actions. Do not leave your Short Sale to chance.
