Short Sale SOLD in Centreville, VA - Chase Mortgage Short Sale by Jennifer Young Homes - 104th SOLD!

Short sale lender of the 1 & 2 won't allow 3rd to show ANY settlement on the HUD-1...any legal way to document?

We have a lender carrying the 1st & 2nd and the 3rd wants $6,000. or they won't participate!  The 1st and 2nd (same bank) won't allow payment to reflect on the HUD-1 and we want something that shows the 1st & 2nd are aware of the settlement to the 3rd so we can have a well documented file!

 

Is this deal dead...or is there a way to protect all parties and still close?

Aurora Bank HELP!!!!!

First off, I'm the Buyer's agent so my hands are tied but I thought maybe someone out there might have something that worked for them with Aurora Bank.  The Listing Agent is Great and likes input and things I find on SuperStars. 

There are two banks on this sale and the two don't seem to be able to coordinate.  We get the approval from one and th the other takes their sweet time until it is just days until the other's approval is expired.  So we are in this See-Saw negoiating…

2012: Year of the Great Housing RECOVERY???????

I have read several news and Blog pieces about 2012 being the bottom of the market and how the best time to purchase a home is now. In good conscious I cannot sit idly by without voicing my opinion.

The news and columnists have based their analysis on the low number of inventory currently on the market for sale and the fact that it is 22% less than this time last year. They further site a 30% increase in property…

List Price versus Accepted

The home was listed on the MLS with 5-10% drops every 2-4 weeks, and no offers for a total of 100 days.  Plenty of lookers but no offers.

The first offer was received and accepted after 104 days on market, at 9% less than the last list price, which had been dropped most recently 19 days before the offer.

Short sale package has been received, and the bank has ordered a BPO.   The bank is IMB.

Question:

2nd lien Short Sale Approval needed

This is my first blog.  I need to know if anyone has information on who to contact in Golden1 CU.  I have a 1st CitiMortgage approving a Short Sale with the 2nd, Golden1 Credit Union, accepts 10% of the balance due as pay off.  What's my next step if 2nd lien refuses the amount, and requesting a higher amount? First Lien will contribute $2,154, Golden1 CU requesting $4,000.  No contributions from any other parties are accepted.    Can anyone help me save this file?
