What is a Short Sale?

(Please Keep In Mind That Each Lender has Its Own Policy and Procedures for Accepting a Short Sale And Time Frames Need To Complete One Vary, Lender By Lender. Neither Century 21 Finesse nor Bev Langley can warrant to you that All Short Sales Will Be Accepted as their acceptance in in the hands of third party or parties. Even though We Have Complete Numerious Successful Short Sales, We Do Not Claim To Be An "Expert" in Short Sales. PLEASE SEEK COMPENT LEGAL AND TAX ADVICE PRIOR TO ENTERING INTO ANY SHORT SALE.) There may be other solutions to your problem, other than a short sale.

A Short Sale is reserved for sellers that normally are behind on their payments or will become late on tehir payments, if current conditions continue, and/or maybe facing foreclosure. Short Sales are for sellers that have no other avenue to keep thier mortage current other than sell their home or to allow the lender to foreclose on the property.

Short sales are a long drawn out procedure that can routinely take 60 - 90 days or longer to get the lender to consider and accept. And is some cases the lender will not accept and will proceede with the foreclosure. There are no guarantees that the short sale will be acccepted by the lender.

How Does A Short Sale Work?

A contract to buy must be written at a price that will net the lender less than currently owned and with the seller netting "0". This contract along with other documents, required by the lender, will be submitted to the lender for consideration. A personal hardship must exist with the seller and you personal finanicial data must be supplied to lender, along with other documation. An appraisal will vbe orderd by the lender.  After all dociuments have been received the lender will review them to determine if they will net more by "short selling". If so, they will agree to the terms of the contract and settlement can occur. If the lender feels that they will net more by going to foreclosure, then they will move to foreclose and not accept the "short sale".
