 Short sale process


The short sale process can vary, but it will generally work as follows:

1)  Meet with a listing specialist to determine if a short sale is the right decision for your families needs.
 
2)  Execute a listing agreement and put your property on the MLS.  A client authorization is signed so we can negotiate with the lender.  A lock box and real estate sign are placed on your property.  We also discuss exit strategies for when the property is sold.

3)  A negotiator at our corporate office will contact your bank/lender to determine the requirements for a short sale.  Since we have built relationships with over 200 banks/lenders we often have the requirements on hand.
 
4)  The lender requirements are given to you so you can begin to gather documentation.
 
5)  We receive an offer from a buyer to purchase the property.
 
6)  We put the short sale package together for the lender including all required documentation and a purchase contract. 
 
7)  Once the lender receives the full package they will order a Broker Price Opinion (BPO) or a full appraisal.  
 
8)  When the BPO or appraisal comes back the bank will either accept the short sale or begin negotiations with our team of experts to determine the best solution to get the short sale transaction accepted.
 
9)  One of two things will happen:

    a)  The bank approves the short sale and we go into a regular escrow, often times    closing within 10 days.

    b)  The bank gives us a value they would be willing to accept and we counter offer the buyer at a higher price.  The buyer will either accept or we will put the property back on the market at the requested price.
 
10)  Upon lender approval, an escrow period will begin and before long the property is sold.

11)  We then help you with the previously determined exit strategy.  Most of our clients decide to rent after a short sale but we would be happy to help you no matter what your decision may be.

 12)  You get to move on with your life and sleep easier at night!
