Has anyone been told by US Bank that their policy is to deny short sales for investor owned property in Florida? If yes, what did you do, who did you contact and were you able to obtain approval after the denial?

This was not denied because it was a portfolio loan. In most cases, it would be denied because they did not prove a true hardship or it was a strategic default. If it is a portfolio they want it off the books. I would recommend ontaining a credit report for all borrowers you are doing short sales with. It is important to understand the hardship and if any assets were disclosed on the 1003
Are you sure it was a denial soley because an investor owned the property? I agree with jeff, maybe there was no hardship present. I actually think it's discrimanatory if they deny a short sale because it was an investment property. I'm no lawyer but can't understand why a second home should be treated differently, other than a waiver of deficiency and tax ramifications.
