A short sale can do much less damage to one's credit rating than an actual foreclosure can. This is a huge benefit for sellers because the black mark of a foreclosure can seriously affect a person's ability to rent property, obtain credit cards, or be approved for loans of any kind. written by Anne Eliason
Further, some renters and even employers check credit ratings and see them as a sign of trustworthiness and competence. Plus, there's the humiliating process of having one's home on the public auction block. So the impacts of foreclosure are far reaching and can really turn ones life in a negative direction. It should be noted, however, that although a short sale shows up differently on your credit report, it is still there, and can also have a negative impact. written by Virginia Wherland

Have you considered being a little unorthodox and buying a home that is a short sale transaction? After the spate of much publicized foreclosures, many lenders have realized that a foreclosure is not necessarily the best way for them to offload a bad debt. written by Bryan Benson
Attempting to do a short sale may be a challenge when there a foreclosures on homes with multiple mortgages. For example, there may be a situation where the foreclosing lender with the highest amount due is in the second place, and the second lien holder with a substantially lower amount is in first place. This can happen because the second lien holder got to the courthouse first and recorded ahead of the larger mortgage holder. written by Richard Geller

The front pages are dominated with stories of the foreclosure onslaught. Those who can be helped out of their situation now have some options, which didn’t exist a few years ago. Some borrowers are so far gone with their financial situation, many times based on circumstances perhaps out of their control, the only answer may be to try a “short sale” (where the lender will accept less than what is owed), “deed in lieu of foreclosure” (where the borrower gives back the property to avoid foreclosure) or sell it (if the borrower has some equity) or allow the foreclosure proceeding to go to it ultimate conclusion. If the borrower has committed to staying in the property and fighting through the difficult period of pending foreclosure many lenders and their servicing agent are offering possible solutions. written by Dale Rogers
Unlike previous down mortgage cycles, lenders are pulling out all the stops to blunt foreclosures. From the use of computer models focusing on customers that “might” fall down together with a lender commitment to slow down any borrower from falling into a non-performing loan. So if a borrower is say two days late from a normal payment pattern, customer service is on the phone to find out what is going on. Options may range from refinancing the loan with different payment terms or even consider a short sale (settling for less than what is owed) if the borrowers are selling. With many homeowners’ just packing up and leaving after not being able to sell many lenders are trying to perform an intervention before the borrowers panic and disappear. With a slow resale market lenders are not setting back and waiting for payments to get down three or four payments. << previous page 1 next page>> |
