Columbus OH – Buying a short sale can be a great
idea. Most short sale properties are priced very competitively to other homes
on the market.
However, buying a short sale is not easy. The seller has to convince the lender
to accept a big loss on the mortgage. Banks do not like losses. Because of that
they double check everything before approving the sale.

The biggest thing you need to be aware of is that there is no
guarantee that the seller's lender will approve the sale.
It has a very good chance of it being approved if the seller's agent is
competent and experienced with short sales. However, not all agents understand
short sales.
Here are the costly mistakes you want to avoid when buying a short sale.
Costly Mistake #1: Selling your house before the short sale is
approved. If the short sale is delayed or rejected by the lender
then your moving plans can be thrown into limbo.
Costly Mistake #2: Not ordering a thorough inspection before
purchasing. Most people short sale their home because of
financial problems.
This means that they have not had the money available to properly maintain
their home. Other homeowners have had to move out of their home for other
reasons such as a job transfer.
They tried to sell their home for what they owed, but no buyers were
interested. After being on the market for a while they finally realized they
were upside down and decided to short sell their home.
In the meantime their home was empty and wasn't maintained. This can cause a
lot of problems.
To avoid this problem make sure you hire the best inspector you can find. Make
sure they go thru the entire home looking for problems.
Costly Mistake #3: Using a realtor that is not experienced with
short sales. There are many other potential problems that can
arise when you are trying to buy a short sale.
If your agent does not understand the short sale process, then they will not
know what to do when a problem arises.
Even worse, they may not foresee a potential problem and help you deal with
before it turns into something worse. Thinking about a short sale?

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.
