How To Convince A Lender To Approve A Bergen County Short Sale

By
Real Estate Agent with RE/MAX Properties - Saddle River

complex-freeway-imageBergen County NJ – Patience, persistence, and a lot of experience is required to convince a lender to approve a short sale. It is a process with many steps.

Do “NOT” allow a buyer to work directly with your lender!

Don’t let the buyer speak for you. You will be required to provide so much financial information and documentation to your lender.

This is not something to let your buyer discuss with your mortgage holder. If you do, you will have no control over what the buyer tells your mortgage holder.

Getting the best deal is always on the mind of the buyer. That could ruin the entire process. A lengthy negotiation period will leave you with absolutely no time to avoid foreclosure if the sale doesn’t work out.

Get a professional to do this for you. It costs you nothing. Never get stuck in your situation and let the process run without your control.

Getting a real estate professional to handle your short sale file is absolutely free and an option worth taking. The mortgage holder pays any real estate fees involved and you pay nothing.

In addition, the mortgage holder knows that it is in their best interest as well as that of the borrower to the have short sale file put together properly by a professional that does not have a conflict of interest right from the beginning.

We’re ready to represent you just the way we have successfully done it for many others.

Important Notice

James Lockard, RE/MAX Properties, and the Stop Foreclosure Institute are not associated or affiliated in any way, shape, or form with the government. Our services have not been reviewed, endorsed, or approved by the government or your lender. Most lenders willingly work with agents on short sales. Why?

Because most short sales are beneficial to a lender. If you accept our offer to help you on a short sale, your lender may not agree to a short sale or to modify your loan. We do offer a loan modification kit.

However, the likelihood of negotiating a modification is like everything else in life. It takes work and persistence to convince your lender to modify your loan. No matter what you or we do, your lender may not approve a loan modification.

If you stop paying your mortgage, then you could lose your home and damage your credit. Because we know avoiding foreclosure is so important to any homeowner, we recommend that you speak with the appropriate legal or tax advisor before making any decision.

This is not intended as legal, technical, or tax advice. Please speak with a licensed professional before making any decision. Information is deemed reliable but not guaranteed as of the date of writing.

You have the option to reject a short sale or loan modification from your lender if it does not meet your approval. If you decide not to go thru with the short sale, then you do not have to pay us our fee. We normally make a real estate sales commission for helping you on a short sale.

First of all, to sell a short sale, you MUST list with a broker, otherwise it will never be approved. Second, you really need a broker who knows short sales. Thanks for sharing this information James!

Donald - I agree with you on both counts! Never have seen a FSBO short sale although I am sure there are people who have tried.  there are many buyers out there who look to do their own negotiations and list the proeprty, get a new buyer and try to flip the house closing on the same day.  BEWARE!
