What Types of Hardship Qualifies For a Short Sale? |
|
I found this post from a few years ago...unfortunately for some homeowners in Maryland, this still applies to them. ...a salvation when a foreclosure is eminent
A short sale is when a homeowner facing foreclosure sells his or her property for less than what is owed to the mortgage lender. The sale has to be approved by the lender. Short sales are still very popular these days in certain parts of the country. Here in the Maryland region and Virginia, short sales have become less popular. Nevertheless, there are still some families that may need the help of a short sale. There are several reasons why a lender could accept a short sale.. In some instances homeowners that are still with adjustable-rate loans can't make the payments when their interest rates rise; others fall behind because of job loss, others because of a divorce or sickness. A lot of homeowners have seen their homes values drop and when they want to refinance. . Their home can not be refinanced because the appraisal for the refi is below what you need to refinance the entire loan
Why are banks increasingly willing to embrace short sales as an alternative to foreclosure? Simple: Because they lose LESS MONEY! CHEAPER! So, if you are procrastinating, not knowing what to do?

Excellent video and information for those homeowners who find themselves in a situation where a short sale is the answer to a prayer.
Fernando - good information. I also know someone currently in New York whose value is way below the mortgage but she is paying it. I gave her an short sale attorney who told her to call her lender, Wells Fargo.
Though my heart goes out to those that have to do a short sale, sometimes it is the best solution. Fortunately we're seeing less of them here in the Seattle area now. It is better to make the agreement with the lender upfront and do the short sale if you can, then it is to let it go into foreclosure if you can avoid it. Informative post, thanks Fernando.
While we see fewer, short sales to some degree will always be a part of the real estate landscape.
