How A Columbus Short Sale Could Help You Avoid Owing Money In The Future

 
Columbus OH – A good short sale agent can help you avoid owing thousands of dollars in the future. Why?

Well, most banks lose money when they reject a short sale. They turn down a sales price of $200,000. They foreclose on the home and put it up for sale.

However, they are not able to get the price they want. The home ends up selling for $150,000. What does that mean to you?

First, you probably owe them a lot of money. They may have been losing money on the original short sale. But, now they lost another $50,000. They will probably ask you to repay them for their loss.

Many people are shocked to learn that they are stuck owing tens of thousands of dollars to their bank. A short sale can help reduce the amount you owe. I'll explain how.

First, most short sales result in the bank forgiving you on the debt. We have seen banks lose hundreds of thousands of dollars and still forgive the debt.

I estimate that over 80% of short sales result in the homeowner in the debt being forgiven. Contrast this with a foreclosure.  In most cases, the bank can chase you down for the money for 7-20 years.

Here is the second way that a short sale can reduce the amount you owe. Most short sales result in the bank result in reduced losses to the bank. I'm sure you are wondering why. 

First off, the home usually sells for more money as a short sale than it would as a foreclosure. We have seen $385,000 short sale offers get turned down, only to result in the home selling after foreclosure for $230,000. That's a huge loss!

Second, a short sale costs the bank less money in property taxes, homeowner's insurance, lost interest income, etc. Overall, the costs are much less. All these costs add up fast. Thinking about a short sale?

Important Notice

Rick and Robin Lemmons, Coldwell Banker King Thompson, and the Stop Foreclosure Institute are not affiliated in any way, shape, or form with the government. Our services have not been reviewed or endorsed by the government or your lender. Most lenders willingly work with agents on short sales. Why?

Because most short sales are beneficial to a lender. If you accept our offer to help you on a short sale, your lender may not agree to a short sale or to modify your loan. We do offer a loan modification kit.

However, the likelihood of negotiating a modification is like everything else in life. It takes work and persistence to convince your lender to modify your loan. No matter what you or we do, your lender may not approve a loan modification.

We do not recommend that you stop paying your mortgage, because this will cause damage to your credit and could cause you to lose your home. Because we know avoiding foreclosure is so important to any homeowner, we recommend that you speak with the appropriate legal or tax advisor before making any decision.

This is not intended as legal, technical, or tax advice. Please speak with a licensed professional before making any decision. Information is deemed reliable but not guaranteed as of the date of writing.

You have the option to reject a short sale or loan modification from your lender if it does not meet your approval. If you decide not to go thru with the short sale, then you do not have to pay us our fee. We normally make a real estate sales commission for helping you on a short sale.
