Short Sale, Foreclosure, Bank Owned REO property - Opportunities to buy and sell

The short sale process is still a mystery to many people, even after all these years. Lots of buyer's agents are confused; puzzled buyers are looking for direction, and not every short sale listing agent knows how to do a short sale.  For a list of short sale and foreclosure properties check out this link  Short Sales, Bank Owned and Foreclosure Opportunities for Buyers

The Basics of a Short Sale

Banks grant short sales for 2 reasons: the seller has a hardship, and the seller owes more on the mortgage than the home is worth.

A few examples of a hardship are:

  • Unemployment / reduced income
  • Divorce
  • Medical emergency
  • Job transfer out of town
  • Bankruptcy
  • Death

If foreclosure or bankruptcy seem like the only option there might be another alternative.  To see if you qualify for a short sale check out this link DO I QUALIFY FOR A SHORT SALE
