Have you Fallen?

Life is like that sometimes, things happen and we do not know how we will make it through. You are not alone – there is help, there is hope. If you are falling behind on your mortgage payments or fear you soon will be, then perhaps we need to explore your options. A Short Sale may be one of them and is a far better choice that walking away. If you want to get more information and find out how Short Sales work, give me a call or email.

The definition of a Short Sale is:

A Short Sale is a sale of real estate in which the sale proceeds fall short of the balance owed on the property's loan. It often occurs when a borrower cannot pay the mortgage loan on their property, but the lender decides that selling the property at a moderate loss is better than pressing the current debtor. Both parties consent to the short sale process, because it allows them to avoid a foreclosure that involves hefty fees for the bank and a poorer credit report outcome for the borrower.

Kathleen, this is a great blog to explain how a short sale can help someone who needs some options besides walking away from the property or declaring bankruptcy.
