So for all of you "hard core" short sale agents I may have some great news!!! If you have been doing any amount of the short sales with Bank of America, you know that you would pick a root canal over a B of A short.
But this week I listed a new short sale, got an offer and in the same day received a call from my seller telling me B of A had called with him about some "new" program they have to help him short sale his home and FAST!! Of course I told him, it was some sort of ploy, and don't give them any information!
To my surprise this was legitimate. Bank of America has a new program if they service the loan, and the property is vacant or non-owner occupied. So I called the assigned mitigator (lovely woman), I know....lovely???? She was very helpful, listened to the details about the home, the market, etc. She then told me she would get the appraisal ordered and we would have an approval in 30 days or less.
Sooooo, I call my negotiator, and tell him what is going on, he of course is skeptical. But after he called her (yes, got right through), he phoned me back saying it was legitimate, and we would be closing quick!!
We are 4 days into this, don't know what is going to happen, but promise I will keep you informed!
Maybe they are waking up.....
