Has anyone had a lender request an approval from the 2nd prior to the first approving?  The 2nd is Chase and of course Chase wants their approval letter.  Ocwen is denying short sale unless they receive it.

Any suggestions.

  • Makes more sense to get the 1st approval first .. since they dictate how much the 2nd will get.
  • Happens all of the time. I usually send the response from the 2 lenders to each other.  Most times one will give in.

    Also, it helps to send over a regular loan payoff when you submit the package. Many times this will slide right through and keep this form happening. Remember the person putting the package together for the negotiator is just checking documents off of a list before pushing the file up. The payoff looks similar to an approval. I've done this many times with success.

    Keep pushing.

    • I'm with Bryant on this one. Most times all they want is a payoff and the language they use in the request is murky. Try a recent payoff/ statement to see if it works.
