I get this asked at least once a week “Can you short sale a luxury home?” The quick answer: Well of course you can! You see it really doesn’t matter how big the mortgage is it’s whether there is a hardship. If you can establish a hardship well then you’re a candidate for a short sale.
For example my last 3 luxury short sales:
Ahwatukee – 2 loans both with Bank of America over $1.3 million sold for $725K. HARDSHIP = Divorce
Apache Junction – 2 loans with Bank of America over $650K. This was approved for a HAFA Pre-Approved Short Sale (this took 6 months to get approved) at $330K. HARDSHIP = Small business owner with Significant loss of income
Cave Creek – 2 Loans, 1 with Bank of America, other local bank over $1.3 million. Approved for $800K. HARDSHIP = Small business owner with Significant loss of income
There are also other variables that need to be considered but loss of income, divorce and even job transfer are all reasons that someone may have to short sale. If you have any questions regarding short sales and whether it’s right for you please contact me for a private consultation. Dean Carver – 480.710.4608 – dean@carverht.com.
