HOW TO AVOID FORECLOSURE

Short Sales most frequently asked questions

• What is a short sale? A short sale occurs when the net proceeds from the sale of a home are not enough to cover the sellers’ mortgage obligations and closing costs, such as property taxes, transfer taxes, and the real estate agent’s commission. A short sale is an alternative to foreclosure which may benefit both lender and borrower alike. The lender is getting paid back much of the money which it lent to the borrower as well as getting rid of the property. The borrower is getting out of their mortgage without having to go through foreclosure proceedings or expend any more money towards the home. Typically, the lender pays practically all sales costs including repairs, escrow and title fees and realtor commissions.

• How do I know if a short sale on my property is right for me?

• If I do a short sale, what do I have to pay to sell my home?

• How do I get started on the short sale process?

• What “hardship” is acceptable for a lender?

• I have two loans, can I still do a short sale transaction?

• I am concerned about my credit, how will a short sale affect my credit?

Real Estate Tips
Cosmetic Improvements >Cosmetic Repairs

The better your home in looks while it is on the market, the more likely it is to sell quickly, and for the best price. When you have a listing appointment with a real estate agent, the agent will provide a detailed market analysis along with the advantages of listing with their company. He or she will then go through your home with you and make suggestions about cosmetic repairs that will help to present your home at its best.

The real estate agent's recommendations can make some sellers uncomfortable and a little defensive because they are reminders of all the "little" projects they have postponed. Real estate agent's occasionally encounter a homeowner who "has it all together", but such people are rare! Most sellers need suggestions about repairs that will make their home show well, and providing these ideas is an important part of a real estate agent's job.
