So we made an offer on a shortsale that BOA had-the home was left in a terrible shape and had been vandalized after their appraisal had been done- after a week we were asked to get a letter from a contractor for our low offer justification- all the wires I mean every single wire in the entire home had been cut- the copper stolen from the units- we got the information from a contractor and submitted that- then about a week later we hear that they are going to just let it go to foreclosure.
Then we got word that its now sold to another bank and they may or may not pick up our offer and either decline, accept or counter- in the mean time the home is subject to more vandalism since its not locked up or protected sufficient enough-
Anyone have any ideas of what I can expect?

Either way if I could fire my realtor and start with another one I would but the LA is clueless as well and has a hard time understanding to call people back.
Thank you for the information. Its been sitting for 2+years according to the dates that we found on some papers showing the prop was winterized- Bank of America is who the property taxes were paid to- and that is who we first made our offer to- then we were told they transferred it to Selene-
We hope to hear something Monday in hopes of either counter offer or at this point any reply on our offer would be great- The thing about appraisers around our area have no clue what things really cost to cure- the electrical that every wire in the house was cut including in the attic that you have to army crawl to get around in-
Fingers crossed that everything works out. Thank you again for any and all info
They should be asking property preservation to go secure the property to help prevent any future vandalism. If the transaction did not have short sale approval it's likely the short sale review will have to start all over with the new mortgage servicer. The new mortgage srevicer may order a new value to be completed or uphold the previous servicers value. Whoever is working the file needs to ask the right questions to see how the new servicer is going to proceed.
