HOW TO AVOID FORECLOSURE
Short Sales most frequently asked questions
Avoid Foreclosure
• 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?

Financing Your Home >Financially Qualified Most purchase agreements allow buyers to get out of the contract if they can't qualify for a mortgage. If you are selling your home, be sure to get some reassurances before you make a commitment to buyers. Most contracts now require timely loan applications and pre-qualifying letters from the lender.
There is no way to be absolutely certain that buyers will be able to obtain financing. Real estate professionals will help buyers determine what they can afford and whether there are financing alternatives. They will also eliminate buyers who are not financially qualified. Training and experience enable them to resolve difficulties quickly to avoid wasting time.
