How to Pick Up Free Equity Buying Newer Homes

By
Real Estate Agent with Elizabeth Anne Weintraub, Broker DRE #00697006

It seems like almost one out of every 100 newer home sales in Sacramento have some sort of contradiction in the public records. It makes me wonder if builders just don't have the staff or whether they simply don't care to accurately report sales or just how this is happening. Of course, if it happens on a short sale, it's a super good deal for the short sale buyers because generally the seller has little, if any, financial stake or interest in the actual sales price.

California short sale sellers typically do not face taxation and surely do not deal with deficiency judgments. They just want that short sale approved and closed, regardless of any increases that could affect price.

There are definitely rewards to reap for buyers willing to wait for Short Sale approval.
