As you will soon learn, a foreclosure is good for NO ONE. The lenders are crippled and many are on the brink of financial insolvency because of the record number of foreclosures. With a frightening number of more foreclosures to come, lenders are now anxious to approve short sales. Keep in mind they approve these not out of compassion for the homeowner, but out of self-preservation. For the homeowner, the difference between a foreclosure and a short sale is so vast that avoiding the devastating and long-term effects of foreclosure must be the top priority.
One never plans to lose a home to foreclosure, but no one, not even the experts, could have predicted the economic downturn we face today. While you cannot change the downward trend in housing values, you can protect yourself from the devastating effects of foreclosure. RE/MAX and The [HOLT] Group is here to help, please contact our office for a confidential consultation.
A short sale is when the amount owed to the lender is more than the value of the property. Normally if the homeowner wanted/needed to sell his/her home then the homeowner would need to make up the difference in order to sell the property. However, in a short sale we negotiate with the lender to accept less than the amount owed so that the home can be sold at current market value.
