Wells Fargo Mortgage Transferred to Rushmore

Wells Fargo issued a short sale approval about 30 days ago. When the title work was updated we found out the mortgage had been transferred to Rushmore. I thought for sure we would start completely over. Thanks to a rep by the name of Diego he made it happen! Just received updated approval before Christmas. We are closing this Thursday the 29th!

I look forward to helping more homeowner's - short sales are for the greater good. 

Let's keep em closing.

Short Sale Processing Support

Why Use A Short Sale Processor?

“No one can whistle a symphony. It takes a whole orchestra to play it.”

A processor should know 10X than you about short sales and everything that goes into…

Investor says Short Sale is No longer an option...

Anyone see this? Suggestions?

Check to see if the short sale has been set-up for the new buyer. She said they received documents however the investor is putting in a restriction on the file for a short sale and the available options are Deed-in Lieu , SPS modification and Repayment Plan. She said there is nothing that SPS can do to lift the restriction. And so I asked for the name of the investor on the file and she said she will send in a request for the investors name to be sent…

Wells Fargo - Short Sale Rejected - Looking For Suggestions

After dragging my short sale request out for almost ten months on a 3 family house, and after telling me they were going to order an appraisal they rejected my short sale request.  The reason they gave me "Occupancy or Rented more than 18 months PFS/DIL requirement not met".  Its a BS reason. 

I am fighting it through the executive escalation team.  Unfortunately because of my job I cannot miss payments on the mortgage to pressure the bank.  This property is ruining me financially and…

4 Hubzu Listings Removed for Encumbrance House on My Land

Layman, here.  I don't do real estate. But I have recent experiences that some of you might want to know about.

Since Nov. I have had Hubzu to remove  listings for an encumbrance modular home that rests on my land, on not one, not two, not three, but four occasions. Finally, Hubzu  has corrected the listing to represent their land only. But if I had not searched the address when I saw signs of renewed activity at the house. I would have an unwelcome family living in my…

US Bank - VA loan

I am working with an active duty airman who is trying to get approved for a short sale through US Bank.  We have been working towards this since July.  We have the house in contract and cannot get further than the "in review" stage.  We've been through 5 relationship managers and still nothing.  VA is the investor.  Is there anything else I can try.  I've called and spoken to anyone that will help.  The last time the file was reviewed was Jan. 25th.  They did a liquidation appraisal back in…

Chase has the second lien

I live in New Jersey and want to buy a short sale in Perth amboy NJ.  Wells FARGO has the first mortgage and chase has the second lien on the property.

The short sale has been approved but Wells Fargo wants to give Chase only 6000 dollars but Chase wants 12,300.

Both of them are not agreeing on the amount.

The sale price of the property is 250,000 which I am ready to pay. What should I do. I am in a fix.

Month and a half later obtained new buyer, whose offer was approved by  and the first lien holder, and allowing $20,000.00 to Franklin. They came back and countered at$28,000.00 claim they have new guideline. That is a crock.  This one will end up in foreclosure. Other than preaching to the choir, who can we reach out to stop…

Items that Repel Homebuyers

Items that Repel Home Buyers

The seller’s market that was so prevalent a few short years ago seems to have shifted in favor of the home buyer. Thanks to an overall improvement in the economy and home prices that have risen by 10% or more for the past year, buyers are becoming a bit more selective about their purchase. Here are some items that scare buyers off and what you can do to fix it.

Foul Smells…
