We are Short Sale Experts!
What is a short sale? A short sale is an "arrangement" between the current owner of a home and the bank that lent them the money to buy their home to accept an offer for less than the total amount owed to pay off the home. The "deficiency" is the difference between the amount owed and what the bank collects at the short sale.
Although, the "arrangement" can take many different forms, there is no other definition of a short sale. I say this because many realtors and some investors simply throw the term around as if it meant "a sale under market value." No. A bank owned (foreclosed) house is not a short sale. A seller deciding to lower their price and take less profit is not a short sale. An old lady that owns her home free and clear, selling a $150k home for $75 k, IS NOT A SHORT SALE. For it to be a Short sale, someone must be getting "shorted." Either the seller, or the bank.
Most short sales arise when a seller owns more on their house than they can sell if for (upside down). The owner of the home then attempts to make an arragnement with their lender to sell the house for less than is owned.
Whether looking ofr a short sale or looking to short sell, we are the people you need.
