Why do a short sale?
There are a number of reasons why a homeowner will elect to complete a short sale. First of all, if the other choice is a foreclosure or deed-in-lieu, it's no-brainer - SHORT SELL IT! Foreclosures and Deed-In-Lieu not only ruin your credit, risk future employment, and cause low self-esteem, but the banks can come after you for the deficiency years down the road - there is no "walking away" anymore. Preserve your credit and eliminate the future risk by doing a short sale instead.
How Do You Qualify for a Short Sale?
It isn't necessary that you can't afford your mortgage, but rather just that it puts stress on your finances to do it. We have had short sales approved for homeowners who wanted out because the property wasn't worth as much as the balance on the mortgage and it was a good financial decision to rid themselves of the property - it happens quite a bit. Generally, the bank like to see a hardship. Some examples of hardship include:
- Loss of employment
- Job Relocation
- Unexpected medical expenses/sickness in the family
- Decreased income
- Interest on an adjustable rate mortgage just adjusted to the point where it's not financially comfortable
- Property requires maintenance/repairs that you cannot afford
- Divorce
- You get married to someone who also has a home and you can't keep two of them
