Hi All,

I'm 2 months into a short sale.  Made an offer on a house that is serviced by NationStar.   After my bid was accepted, NationStar turned the property over to auction.com.  The auction failed, Apparently there were no bids higher then mine. Now after another month of nothing, my agent has warned me that NationStar plans to come back with a counter offer.   Has anyone worked through this scenario before?   My instinct is to tell them no since my offer was 20% over MLS and the house failed on auction.com AND my offer is higher then a failed sale through MLS 9 months ago. My offer is a very good market price, not a deal for me.  We like the property.  I'm sure they just want to get as much money for the property to reduce the BofA loss.  

Has anyone told Nation Star to take a hike?      

Can I expect them to try to sell the house as is and eliminate the inspection? 

Any counter offer ideas?

Thanks.  I will write this up once I own or lose the property.
