Short Sale/Foreclosures
Welcome > Find Homes > Short Sale/Foreclosures ...

In this current economic slowdown which comes on top of a depressed real estate market, both buyers and sellers should understand the short sale/foreclosure dynamic and its impact on the real estate market. What questions should you ask and what are the answers? GO NO FURTHER. My team is trained to provide you with THE ANSWERS. 

WHAT IS A SHORT SALE AND HOW DOES IT COMPLICATE A REAL ESTATE TRANSACTION?  

A short sale is a sale of real estate in which the proceeds from the sale fall short of the balance owed on a loan secured by the property sold.
In a short sale, the bank agrees to discount a loan balance because of an economic hardship on the part of owner. The negotiation is all done through communication with a bank's loss mitigation or workout department. The home owner sells the mortgaged property for less than the outstanding balance of the loan, and turns over the proceeds of the sale to the lender. It would have the right to approve or disapprove of a proposed sale.
A short sale typically is executed to prevent a home foreclosure, but the decision to proceed with a short sale is based on the most economic way for the bank to recover the amount owed on the property.
 

The Big Problem: The Buyer has a contract for sale and must wait for the bank's approval which can often take SEVERAL MONTHS. 

WHAT ISSUES ARISE IN BUYING A FORECLOSURE PROPERTY?  

Because these homes are purchased "as is" from the lender, there is no guarantee of condition. Sometimes it is possible to inspect these homes prior to making an offer but sometimes, access is not granted.  

When sellers realize they are about to lose their homes through foreclosure, it's not uncommon for them to stop caring about the home.  

If something breaks or malfunctions, they aren't going to fix it.
If they are angry or desperate enough, it's possible they might actually damage the house, such as smash out walls, then pull out the copper pipes and wiring to sell as scrap metal.
Owners will also sell the appliances and kitchen cabinets.
Buying foreclosures is not for the faint of heart.
 

WHAT HELP DO I NEED? We have relationships with several of attorneys who have successful closed a number of both short sales and foreclosures.

Real Estate Tips
About Appraisals >Best Interests of the Buyer

Who represents the homebuyer in the transaction? The most common scenario is for homebuyers to purchase a home with the help of the seller's listing agent. In this case, known as "dual agent representation," the real estate agent assists both the sellers and the buyers. However, it is also possible for the buyers to ask another realtor to represent their interests exclusively, acting as the "buyer's agent," a service which is available at no additional cost to the homebuyer.

Any licensed real estate agent can act as your buyer's agent, helping you to locate and look at properties in your price range. However, if that real estate agent works for the same brokerage that is listing a particular property, dual agency or designated agent rules will then apply. The buyer's agent will advise the buyer if issues arise such as termite damage or significant material defects appearing on the home inspection report. If the home appraisal comes in at less than the asking price, the agent will represent the buyer's interest, working with the seller and the lender to negotiate a satisfactory resolution.
