Columbus Short Sales: Will My Lender Set The Price For My Home?

Columbus OH – The Stop foreclosure Institute recently received a question from Steve about short sales. Here was Steve’s Question.

“I am interested in a short sale. I just have a few questions about how the process works. Does my lender set the price for the property. And, will that price include the realtor fee? Sincerely, Steve.”

Here was our answer.  Steve, in most cases the lender will not set the asking price for your home. In most cases, the lender does not get involved until after we have an offer from a buyer.

The only exception is if you have an FHA loan. FHA’s short sale guidelines stipulate that an appraisal be done after the home is put on the market. They require the asking price be changed to the appraised value.

As far as your second question, does that price include the realtor fee? FHA Short Sale Guidelines require the lender to pay your realtor a commission. You don’t have to pay it.

On other short sales, the lender usually pays the realtor’s fee. They know that they will have to pay a realtor when they sell a home after foreclosure. Why not avoid the foreclosure and sell the home now?

That is the logic behind why they pay the realtor’s commission on a short sale. Thinking about a short sale?

Why Columbus Short Sales with 3 or more mortgages are difficult.

Columbus OH – Are you looking to buy a short sale? Before you make an offer, you need to check and see how many mortgages are on the home.

A short sale with only one mortgage is not that difficult. Even an inexperienced agent can often get these approved and sold.

Click here to discover how other sellers successfully did a short sale and avoided foreclosure. http://columbusohshortsaleadvisors.com/

A short sale with two loans becomes much more difficult. You now have two lenders that have to agree with each other. However, an experienced short sale agent can get the two lenders to agree with each other on the short sale.

However, when you have three or more loans and/or liens, everything just becomes way more complicated. Most first mortgages will only give $2,500 to $3,000 to a second mortgage on a short sale.

They don’t have any policies in place on what to give a third position mortgage or lien. And that third position lien holder isn’t going to go away for free. Someone is going to have to give them something in return for them releasing their lien.

That third position lender basically has the right to throw a wrench in the works unless they get paid. They can veto the short sale for any reason. They will only go away when they are either paid in full or accept a lower amount.

This is what makes short sales with three or more loans so difficult. The first mortgage, second mortgage, and third position lien fight over the available money.

At the end, the first mortgage usually forecloses on the property and the second and third position people get nothing. But, a foreclosure takes a long time and costs money.

At the end of the day, everyone ends up losing more than they would have made if they had simply worked together. This is why we usually avoid short sales with three or more mortgages/liens in place. Thinking about a short sale?

Questions Buyers Should Ask The Agent Listing A Columbus Short Sale

Columbus OH – Are you looking to buy a short sale? Before you make an offer, you need to check and see how competent the listing agent is at short sales.

The listing agent is the agent with the property for sale. They will usually be in charge of processing the short sale with the lender.

Click here to discover how other sellers successfully did a short sale and avoided foreclosure. http://columbusohshortsaleadvisors.com/

If the listing agent is a genuine short sale expert and knows what they are doing, then you have a very good chance of the short sale being approved and buying the home.  I’ll show you how to separate the experts from the pretenders in this post.

If the agent is not a genuine short sale expert, then you are probably wasting your time. You should go find another home to buy.

First, ask them how many short sales they have successfully sold.  If they have only sold 2-3 short sales, then the odds are not in your favor. You risk wasting months of time waiting for an answer on the short sale.

Next, ask them how many loans are on the property.  If there is only 1 loan, then you know two things. First, they know what they are doing. Second, this is a relatively simple short sale.

If there are two loans, then the property is still worth considering. However, if there are 3 or more loans, then you might want to look at another home. Short sales with 3 or more loans are very difficult.

The first mortgage won’t give enough money to the second and third position mortgages. The second and third position mortgages won’t release their lien without more money. At the end, everyone loses (that is another story for another day.)

Lastly, ask who the lenders are.  If the lenders are a notoriously bad lender at short sales, then you might want to avoid the property. However, a competent short sale agent can handle a short sale with ease. Thinking about a short sale?

This information on Questions Buyers Should Ask The Agent Listing A Columbus Short Sale is provided as a courtesy to our viewers to help them make informed decisions.

Columbus Short Sales: Bank won’t allow my seller to avoid short sale process

Columbus OH – The Stop Foreclosure Institute recently received a question from another agent. Apparently they were being mislead on a short sale by a large national lender.

Here is the question we received: “Do you have a number to contact Fannie Mae? The bank (Large National Bank) will not allow the seller to not do a short sale and agree to repay the loss on a promissory note.

She said that she has to talk to the investor which is Fannie Mae. My seller just wants to sell and move on with their life. Janet.”
 
Click here to discover how other sellers successfully did a short sale and avoided foreclosure. http://columbusohshortsaleadvisors.com/

Here was our response.  I understand the logic of what your seller is trying to do. They think that they can just sell the home for less than it’s worth, sign a promissory note for the difference, and move on with their lives.

The sad reality is that life’s not that simple, especially when you are dealing with bankers. Before they make any changes on anything, they want to make sure that everything is okay.

In order to make sure everything is okay, they will have to process the sale as a short sale. That is why they demand before they will transfer the upside down debt to a promissory note.

They always like to keep things at the status quo. Any big changes need to be very carefully evaluated. It’s just the way bankers work.

So, if your seller wants to sell and repay the debt on a promissory note, then they will have to go thru the formal short sale process. It’s the only option that I see. Thinking about a short sale?

Columbus Short Sales: How Do You Handle Multiple Offers?

Columbus OH – The Stop Foreclosure Institute recently received a question from another agent. Here was her question.

"I have a short sale listed. At what time in the short sale process do you stop accepting additional offers for submittal to the lender? If you accept another offer after you've already submitted one to the lender, does it reset your timeline to the beginning?

Do you just put them in backup position?  What about the poor buyer whose offer was submitted and has already been waiting for weeks for lender approval?

Do you allow them to match the higher offer?  You guys have so much experience, how do you handle this?  Thanks! Diane."
 
Click here to discover how other sellers successfully did a short sale and avoided foreclosure. http://columbusohshortsaleadvisors.com/

Here was our answer.  It all depends. We like to stay with the original offer if possible. But, we don't always do that. It all depends on what the seller wants to do.

If the bank is asking for a deficiency or promissory note, then the seller may want to submit the higher backup offers. We run this for the sellers and not the buyers benefit. We feel that it is our job to represent the seller.

If the short sale lender does not like the first offer, then we will submit the next offer. But, if they accept the first offer, then we recommend that the seller go with that one to honor the first buyer.

That buyer has waited the longest and deserves to be rewarded for their patience. Thinking about a short sale?

Columbus Short Sales: Can I Rent My Home If It Is In Foreclosure?

Columbus OH – The Stop Foreclosure Institute recently received a question about renting a home in foreclosure.

Short Sale Question: I am selling two homes that are short sales. I would like to rent the homes during the foreclosure process. I will continue to pay the home owners association fees. I will not be paying the mortgage.

Is it legal to do this? Is there any liability that comes with it?
 
Click here to discover how other sellers successfully did a short sale and avoided foreclosure. http://columbusohshortsaleadvisors.com/

Here was our answer to them.  The Stop Foreclosure Institute is not a law firm. Therefore, we can’t answer as to whether or not it is legal. We recommend that you check with a lawyer before making a decision.

We do know that there are laws forbidding that practice in many states. For example, Florida recently passed a law that stated that you had to notify any potential renter whether or not the home was in foreclosure before renting.

From what we have heard about the law, if you lease a property in foreclosure and don't tell the tenants, then it is a criminal offense.

If it was a problem in Florida, then it was a problem in other states and they probably passed similar laws. We have seen cases in the past where a homeowner sold their home as “Owner Financing". 

The home was in foreclosure and buyers filed a police report. The sheriff’s office investigated the homeowner for fraud. The people who thought they were buying the home paid the owner a large down payment.

They didn’t know the home was in foreclosure. He disappeared with their money and they were kicked out by the bank.

We don’t know what ended up happening. The bottom line is that anything fishy can have future repercussions. So check with a lawyer to make sure you won’t have any problems. Thinking about a short sale?

Columbus Short Sales: Why Is Everyone So Negative About The Housing Market?

Columbus OH – The tax credit expired and everyone turned negative on the housing marketing.

One so called expert said we could see headlines about the real estate market crashing again. Another said that the housing market is going to continue it's decline for another year or two.

He referenced an article that showed that mortgage applications dropped by 9.5 percent the first week after the tax credit expired.
 
Click here to discover how other sellers successfully did a short sale and avoided foreclosure. http://columbusohshortsaleadvisors.com/

I don't want to apply for the job of "Amateur Economist." Here are a few examples I found of actual economists getting their predictions wrong.

1. An economist published a book in 1987 that predicted a depression in the 1990s. That proved just a little inaccurate, no?

2. Supposedly in 1996, Alan Greenspan, stated he thought there was too much irrational exuberance in the US stock market. The stock market continued to climb for another 4 years.

However, Greenspan was bullish on the last economic expansion that went best. How wrong was he on the last housing / economic bust?

Who really knows what is going to happen in the housing market. I do know that despite all the crazy predictions, the housing market will eventually recover. It might take another 1-3 years to flush out all the foreclosures and "shadow inventory."

But, after that happens the housing market will stabilize and start a slow appreciation. It might take 8-12 years for prices to return to the previous high. Maybe even longer. But, they will turn around eventually.

What does that mean to the person in an upside down house? They have a great opportunity to short sale their home and buy at the bottom.

They can erase 8-12 years of negative equity and start building equity when they qualify to buy another home 3 years after their short sale. If you are upside down by 20% or more, a short sale makes great financial sense.

What do you think? E-mail me back if you are bearish or bullish on housing. Just put "Bull" or "Bear" in the subject line of your e-mail.  Thinking about a short sale?
