Be Careful What You Post On Facebook When Trying To Short Sell Your Columbus Home

Columbus OH – Let's say a friend owes you a thousand dollars. They come to you with a sob story about how they are broke and cannot afford to repay you.

"I am so broke that we are about to lose our car. And the electricity was turned off last month when we missed the payment. I can't even afford diapers for our son", they tell you.

You tell them just to forget about the debt.  Don't worry about paying me back. I don't want to be a burden on your family", you tell them.

A few days later you are scanning Facebook and see pictures of them on vacation in Miami. You realize they had lied to you. It's obvious that they weren't broke if they could afford a fancy vacation in Miami. How would you feel?

I tell this story to make my point. Are you trying to convince your bank to approve your short sale and allow you to walk away from your debt? Well, why should they do that?

Lenders and debt collectors may look you up on Facebook. If they see you went on a fancy vacation, then they may not forgive the debt.

They tell you, "It's obvious that you are doing well financially. I just saw your Facebook profile and the pictures of you on vacation at the Ritz Carlton in Miami. We aren't releasing you from the debt."

Not a fun ending, is it? If you are considering a short sale, then watch what you post on Facebook, Twitter, etc. Thinking about a short sale?

Important Notice

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.
