Thanks to our very own moderator superstar Kevin M Lancaster Willson....  we have it from the authority at Chase, Mr John Rieger, that Chase will be on Equator as of October 4.

This has to be a good thing, doesn't it?  Chase has traditionally not been easy to deal with, poor communication, no good way to process files, lost faxes... Etc...  Equator has to be a step in the right direction!

Wait on second....  will Chase follow BofA and make the process fairly simple or will they follow the Wells Fargo platform and make it much more cumbersome and difficult?   Word is that they will follow the more troublesome Wells Fargo platform.

I know that Chase monitors this site so I will be the first to suggest to them that the Wells Fargo system did not make short sales at Wells Fargo proceed smoother with less problems, it did the complete opposite.  Just to get past the front line processors is more difficult than faxing in a package and handling it the traditional way.  Matter of fact, many agents still fax in their packages to Wells Fargo, something that should be a HUGE RED FLAG for Chase if they think the Wells platform did anything to help the short sale process.

Chase Mortgage, please take a moment to reach out to some top short sale experts and get their feedback before making what could be a huge mistake.... take a look at Bank of America or GMAC on equator and then take a look at the mess that Wells Fargo made in equator.  If you truly want to make the short sale process better, do not follow Wells Fargos lead
