Short Sales
Even with the rebounding market short sales remain a situation which presents challenges to both buyers and sellers. This type of transaction is where the lender(s) agree to accept less than what is owed on the property at the time of sale. There are many factors which affect the short sale and no two situations are alike. Legal & taxation issues are out of the realm of what real estate professionals can give advice on and it is strongly recommended that a seller seek professional advice regarding these issues. Unlike the fast paced world of purchasing a bank owned property, short sales require both sellers and buyers to be organized, patient and manage expectations throughout the process. These can be emotional transactions for all parties involved.
