Get Professional Representation

Getting a short sale approved by the existing lender is a multi-step process that requires patience, persistence and a lot of experience. If you decide that a short sale is the best answer for your situation, have a qualified professional represent you.

Do not allow a purchaser to work directly with your mortgage holder!

Don’t let the purchaser speak for you

In order to get a short sale approved your mortgage holder will require that you provide a great deal of personal financial information and documentation. You don’t what the purchaser discussing the details of your financial situation with your mortgage holder. You have absolutely no control over the purchaser and what they tell your mortgage holder.

The purchaser is interested in one thing, and that is to get the best deal possible. The negotiation with your mortgage holder could be unnecessarily drawn out by the purchaser to the point that you would not be left with time to avoid foreclosure in the purchaser does not close escrow.
