Short sale approvals take time. It is unfortunate that they do not check the entire agreement of sale when they receive it before sending it to negotiators to approve or counter the price.If you are the buyer agent you should check the entire purchase contract before submitting it to listing agent for the following things
1.Signature of buyers should be the same on all addendums and agreement. The buyer cannot sign one addendum as say Tom and another as Thomas. If they have middle initials they should also have it on all addendums.If you are--- Sr or ---Jr it should be signed that way. Sign the exact same way every time you have to sign something they send you. If you do not do so, they will request it months later and if you do not respond to their request within 48 hours they may delay it by weeks.
2. Name of the street should be the same. You cannot say street on one page and rd on another page. Please see what it should be and be specific.
When you are dealing with short sales it is important to cross you T's and dot your i's .
When you are the listing agnet and you receive the offer from buyer agent please check everything again before submitting it .
