Getting a short sale approved is no easy task. Buyers can, and do, walk away if they feel the transaction is taking too long. Mortgage insurance companies frequently demand unreasonably high contributions from the seller, thus killing the deal. Servicing rights can be transferred to a new lender mid- transaction. The foreclosure auction occurs despite the lender repeatedly…

There have been some recent numbers and percentages being released concerning different polls and surveys the National Association of Realtors has conducted. These numbers work to paint a solid picture of what buyers really do care about in terms of their agent and how they are represented.

We have a Short Sale agreed to.
Closing 11/29 - has to be funded by 11/30.
The 11/27 walk though found that the copper had been stolen.
PS - We are in the Northeast & property is hot water heated - lots of copper!
Any experience you can share?
What did you do?
How did it work?

If you have been exposed to the Real Estate industry in almost any way, shape or form then you have for sure been exposed to the popular marketing tactic of a FREE CMA!
If you are someone that is jumping into the real estate river for the first time then this may be a new concept for you and may be something you really have no idea about.
So what exactly is a…

If you can not pay your mortgage you might want to do something about it sooner rather than later. Here's why:
1. The Mortgage Debt Relief Act of 2007 is set to expire at the end of 2012
2. This act says that if you sell your primary residence as a short sale or it is foreclosed then no federal tax is owned on the debt foregiveness, the difference between what you owe and what the bank was paid back after the…

I am so proud to say that we just assisted another Johnson County KS homeowner seeking to short sell their Shawnee home.
The loan was an FHA insured with BB&T and frankly, was one of the best experiences I have had in working with a bank/investor on a short sale. I found it very easy to communicate with BB&T's short sale specialist which made the process run smoothly and to the benefit of BB&T and FHA.

Today I was thinking that if the home owner is not paying the mortgage than most likely the insurance is also gone by the way side. My question is this:
Will the bank place insurance on the property and if so how much liablity.?
Will that protect the home owner,family and guests from injury while living in the property?
What about when it gets listed and people interested for some reason need to enter the property and gets injured?
What happens than, who…

I've lately been having many friends and clients receiving certified mail from their "lender" (but it actually seems to be from the govt) saying they are qualified to get a lower rate through the HARP program.....that it will be easy and all they have to do is fill out a few papers. These are owners that have never had a late or missed payment as well. So far, I havent heard of ANY of my clients getting this lower rate very…

There is a $1600 difference between what B of A will give the second and what the second deed of trust wants. The buyer is willing to pay this but our negotiator says Bank will not approve this. We suggested that the buyers agent pay this and get reimbursed from seller concession but still we are told no go. Any ideas?

In today’s real estate landscape buyers are often hesitant and reluctant to really make that final decision. A lot of times they get pressured into a decision. Sure they may find a house that they really like and are kind of on the fence about it. Then they start to feel pressure from what their family thinks, what their parents think, what their friends think and worst of all…
