shortsales: From Your Realtor: The Short Sale Facts - 01/11/10 05:00 AM
SHORT SALE FACTS!
 
 
Why would my Lender want to allow a Short Sale to help me?  The reason is simple; a short sale often has a better return on investment to the lender than a foreclosure. The average savings a lender sees from a short sale property compared with a foreclosure property is $14,000. Not only does the lender receive this savings, they are also paid on the loan 6 months earlier than in the foreclosure process. This allows them to collect and cash-out earlier than they would in a foreclosure. Plus, lenders spend a great deal of money … (6 comments)

Would You Take This Listing? 
 

I have been going back and forth on this seller who wants me to list his home...THE CATCH?

He just put renters in the property with help of a Property Management firm last month, Renters won't call me back, foreclosure papers say it forecloses next month... As much as I am up for a challenge, I think about my personal record of Short … (94 comments)

shortsales: Agents: Are Your Short Sale Showings Slowing Down For You? - 10/01/09 05:50 AM
 Showings On Your Short sale Listings...
 
It seems that when I have looked at my listings and other Short Sale listings $300k and under, I am seeing a trend of slowing down in the showings...my thought is, 1st Time Homebuyer Incentive ending on November 30th...most agents will tell their buyers that Short Sales take too much time... 4-12+ weeks to complete that I feel like these are the last ones shown lately. I am told all my clients that with the Proposed Extension will come the showings back to full swing but I am wondering...Anyone Else Feeling This?

shortsales: A Seller Needs to Be Committed To Selling A Short Sale - 09/06/09 02:27 AM
If you remember last week, I had a seller who was fortunate enough to get an approval from his bank to wipe off $95k in current loan amount to sell his home...the guy then turns around and takes every appliance, fan, garage door...etc, out of his home...Me...I was ready to strangle him, the bank did let me lower the price on the home an immediate $25k and now we have 2 offers...still...he could have really screwed up his chances...if it were me, I would have foreclosed in frustration...NOT ALL BANKS ON SHORT SALES ARE BAD... 
And now...I should have known I was going … (8 comments)

shortsales: Former owners of houses lost in foreclosure would be able to stay as renters. - 08/17/09 03:11 AM
Should they also get an option to purchase the house from the bank at the end of the lease term, assuming they have the income to afford it?
Before leaving for their August break, Democrats and Republicans in the House took a rare, unanimous stand on both questions by passing the Neighborhood Preservation Act by voice vote. The bill was co-sponsored by Reps. Gary Miller, R-Calif., and Joe Donnelly, D-Ind.
The bill would remove legal impediments blocking federally regulated banks from entering into long-term leases - up to five years - with the former owners of foreclosed houses. It also would … (2 comments)

shortsales: Mortgage People Have to Have Good Credit, Why Shouldn't We? - 07/31/09 01:19 AM
Married to a Mortgage guy, I know he must now have good credit in order to help others obtain a loan...I think its a great idea, I mean...I think that it makes it more balenced to know the Mortgage Guy must have a score of 620 or better(if you work for a Broker or Licensed through the State) ...It instills confidence and in these rough times, Confidence is great!
Which brings me to my next thought...I probably will take heat on this but I have a scenario...A Realtor(who is Short Selling 3 of her own properties) is still out there selling property to … (5 comments)

As foreclosure rates hit record levels, more sellers are turning to short sales as a way to avoid foreclosure. So, how does it work? In a short sale, the seller arranges with their mortgage lender to accept a price that's less than the amount they owe on the property. As a result, the seller doesn't have to go though a foreclosure, the buyer picks up a property at a discount, and the lender avoids taking … (0 comments)

Some things you may not think of while going through the process of a short sale is your HOA dues....while it is a fact that HOA's could file for lien or foreclosure, what you don't realize is the compounding interest that builds and adds up from the HOA's...I just had a closing on a neighborhood where the community HOA was $240 a year....while my client had not paid in 9 months, the HOA's you would have thought would have been $180 dollars and maybe a bit of interest and admin. fees....NOPE...when the bank gave the approval and we sat at the closing … (3 comments)
