What is a short sale and how does a short sale work?If your property value is less than the amount you owe on your home, then it doesn't make much sense to continue owning that home. A third party short sale buyer can make an offer to the bank to pay off your loan. Let's say you bought a home in 2006 for $250,000 with 10% down. Similar homes recently sold for $175,000. You owe about $220,000. Let's also assume your payments are $1700 per month and you could rent a similar home for $1200 per month. A short sale buyer will make an offer to the bank to cash out the lender at a discount to the face value of the loan. If it is accepted, you can walk away from the $220,000 debt and owe nothing. The bank relives you of the debt and does not show a foreclosure on your credit record. Now instead of putting good money after bad and continuing to fund a losing investment, you can rent a home and save $500 per month.
What happens after I fill in the form?Within seconds your request for a consultation is routed to investors that are buying homes or a real estate agent that can arrange a buyer for you.
