What Is A Short Sale?

Simply put a short sale is when a lender accepts a discount on a mortgage to avoid a possible foreclosure auction, or bankruptcy. In a short sale the Broker is conducting the transaction with a Buyer and the lender. A successful short sale means that the bank accepts an offered amount that is less than what is actually owed to the lending institution by the Seller. It is common that certain concessions will have to be made for the bank to accept the deal. Typically the bank will adjust the real estate commission all agents receive. As you can already see ... realtydollars2u becomes the perfect vehicle to minimize real estate commissions beyond what the lender might expect to pay.

Lender Criterion Necessary for a Possible Short Sale.

Be aware of the negative tax consequences in short selling real estate ... we strongly suggest to consult with an income tax professional.  The criterion that best suits a successful short sale include: a partner whom can professionally communicate with the lending institution, a partner whom is willing to make monetary sacrifices, a notice of default has been filed against the subject property, property condition and location, and a market that is showing true weakness. The last thing that the bank wants is to be stuck with suspect property in a truly weak housing market. Removing bad debts from the books are often the most prudent business move for the lending institution. Having said this, not all lending institutions will participate in the short sale process and Fitch Properties and/or Realtydollars2u.com neither guarantees, warrants, or makes any promises of any kind whatsoever of a successful outcome to the short sale process.
