Houston Short Sales: When A Bank Should Approve A Houston Short Sale

November 14th, 2011


 

November 14, 2011 Edit This

Houston TX – The Stop Foreclosure Institute recently received a question from James. Here was his question.

A bank should accept your short sale when the following rules apply. All banks and servicers have a fiduciary duty to the investor of the loan.

If they own the loan themselves, they have a fiduciary duty to their stockholders. The duty is to get that investor the most money possible. So, a lender should accept an offer if it will net the most money.

Your only job is to prove that to the negotiator. Do that by showing them that the property has been on the open market for 60-90 days. We need to be able to show that the house was easy for buyers to see and other agents to show.

Tell the lender the following, “I have an experienced agent selling my home. It has been on the market for X days. I have lived there the entire time and kept up on the house. It looks good.

43 buyers have looked at the home since then. Out of that, only 3 buyers expressed interest. Out of those 3 buyers, the current buyer is the one willing to pay the most money. My agent is doing a great job marketing my home.

With the current foreclosure case status, the home won’t be foreclosed until June or July. When you foreclose on the house, I will move out. The house won’t be kept up anymore.

The new agent will be working on 20 other homes and won’t promote the home as well as my current agent. This means there will be less buyers looking for a home.

Do you honestly think the home is going to sell for more money then? Thinking about a short sale?
