Why Isn't Anyone Holding These People Accountable On Columbus Short Sales?

Columbus OH – Are you thinking about short selling your home? Here is a way that any seller can help with the short sale. First off, the biggest problem is that there is very little accountability in the short sale industry.

The banks use appraisers and other people to tell them what a house is worth before they sell it. They banks will not approve a short sale offer unless the house is selling for close to what these people tell them it is worth.

The banks use this process to make sure that they are not selling homes for less than they could sell them for after a foreclosure. Here is why there is very little accountability.

Very few people ever look at the valuations turned into the bank. The realtor helping you with your short sale can't access this information. The valuations often have glaring inaccuracies in them.

For example one property was valued at 375k. Because of that valuation a short sale offer for 275k was turned down. We can agree that it would be stupid for a lender to accept 275k for a house worth 375k.

However, the house wasn't worth 375k. It had been on the open market for several months and that was the highest offer received from any home buyer. But, it gets worse.

The home ended up selling as a short sale for $235,000. Yes, that bank lost $40,000. But, why did it happen? Because someone gave the bank an inaccurate property value.

However, that person was never held accountable for their actions. They caused a bank to lose $40,000. But today they are still doing property valuations for banks. It's insane, isn't it?

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.
