What is a "Short Sale"

A short sale can be an excellent solution for homeowners who need to sell, and who owe more on their homes than they are worth.

 

But to be technical here's a more official definition:

  • A homeowner is 'short' when the amount owed on his/her property is higher than the current market value.
  • A short sale occurs when a negotiation is entered into with the homeowner's mortgage company (or companies) to accept less than the full balance of the loan at closing. A buyer closes on the property, and the property is then 'sold short' of the total value of the mortgage.

For homeowners to qualify for a short sale, they must fall into all of the following circumstances:

  • Financial Hardship – There is a situation causing you to have trouble affording your mortgage.
  • Monthly Income Shortfall – In other words: "You have more month than money." A lender will want to see that you cannot afford, or soon will not be able to afford your mortgage.
  • Insolvency – The lender will want to see that you do not have significant liquid assets that would allow you to pay down your mortgage.

This seems simple enough, but it is a complicated process that takes the expertise of experienced professionals. Together, we can identify all possible options and, when possible, assist you in the quick execution of a short sale transaction.
