Plainfield IL, Naperville Illinois Real Estate - Why would a realtor want to help me with my short sale if I can't afford to pay them?

How does a realtor profit from a short sale?

When formally requesting a short sale commitment from the bank, realtor commissions are usually included if a realtor was involved in the deal. The bank may counteroffer to lower the commission. Realtors can also "hunt" for short sales by talking to clients that have had their homes listed for a long time with no success. The realtor can explain the short sale process and help the owner negotiate with their lender to get it sold and the realtor gets their commission.
