Short Sale Package

Your bank will require a number of documents called a "short sale package". These documents should show some sort of seller hardship, which justifies the banks acceptance of less than they are owed.

Tax Consequences of a Short Sale

Discuss the possible tax consequences of a short sale with your real estate agent. In rare circumstances the IRS may consider the debt forgiven as taxable income.

Why Your Bank Will Accept a Short Sale

While most lenders will not be thrilled when you approach them about a short sale, they also realize it may offer them their best chance to limit their losses.

What Does in Mean to Be a Short Sale REALTOR®

Short Sale REALTORS®: A short sale real estate agent or a short sale REALTOR® is not your average real estate agent. Most real estate agents don't focus on short sales and therefore they may only do one or two short sale negotiations a year. If you're thinking about trying a short sale to sell your house, you'll want a real estate agent on your team that negotiates deals on a daily basis, a real estate agent that has successfully closed short sales with local and national banks, an agent that can guide you through the process. This is where we can help. Our team of researchers has identified and built relationships with the top short sale real estate professionals around the country to ensure that you'll be working with a local real estate agent who has proven that they can successfully market your home, produce a qualified buyer and negotiate the short sale.
