What is a “short sale”

13 Apr

What is a “short sale?”

A short sale occurs when the net proceeds from the sale of a home are not enough to cover the sellers’ mortgage obligations and closing costs, such as property taxes, transfer taxes, and the brokers’ commission. The seller is unwilling or unable to cover the difference.

Who do you contact first?

Seller must contact a qualify Real Estate office specializing in short sale negotiations.  Please feel free to contact Bold Real Estate Group for more information or concerns about the short sale process.

How do I get the lender to reduce the amount of the mortgage owed?

Many lenders will not negotiate the mortgage balance until a written Contract for Sale and Purchase has been received. The seller is often asked to submit income tax returns, income stubs and other information so that the lender can determine if it is truly a hardship case. The bank will also need comps or a broker’s price opinion showing your estimate of value.  Bold Real Estate Group short sale division will assist with all negotiations towards a successful resolution.

What if the lender won’t reduce the amount of the mortgage?

Unfortunately, not all lenders will reduce the amount of the mortgage if they feel that the seller can pay the deficiency. In this case, the seller will have to either sign a Promissory Note to the lender, borrow funds from relatives or other sources, or the sale won’t go.

Are there any tax implications for the forgiveness of debt?

The forgiveness of any debt is imputed income to the seller for tax purposes. A 1099 is usually given to the seller at closing and the imputed income is listed on the HUD-1.

What is Necessary from a Successful Short Sale Negotiator?

  • Sophisticated financial knowledge
  • Understand the lender’s language
  • Reliable – a company with name to protect
  • Time, time and more time
  • Accurate paperwork
  • Experience
  • Legal knowledge
  • Negotiation skills
  • Strong supportive administration
  • Capability to handle high volume
  • Legal reasonability

Bold Real Estate Group Short Sale division is dedicated to working with home sellers towards a successful resolution of the Short Sale process.  Our legal assistant will collect and review all the necessary documents, research tax, title and liens on the property and purchase contract for lender review.  Our legal assistant will not collect a retainer fee for services.  Legal fees and Real Estate commission will be paid by the lender as part of their NET loss for the short sale approval.  Your lender is contacted weekly for updates and make sure positive progress is being made on the file.  Please feel to contact our office with any questions or concerns regarding our short sale process.   For a confidential appointment, please contact us at communityinfo@comcast.net

Factors To Help Sell Your Home Quicker

12 Apr

The ideal home means different things to different people; but the most appealing home always will possess a clear and clean sense of style. Yet many of us allow our personal style to get in the way and that can interfere with selling your home.  A few fixes can help you sell your home quicker.

Clutter Control

Every room of the house should be organized so that potential buyers can easily walk through. It can be a headache and an extra burden but think about placing items in storage, especially out-of-season items.

Take a walk around your kitchen and ask yourself, what do you really need? Start by storing bulky appliances that you rarely use. They quickly take up lots of counter space that you want to render useful to buyers.

The bedroom should reveal an oasis however it often becomes a repository for heaps of clothing and portable tech gadgets. Everything has a place so if it doesn’t fit or it’s in the wrong room, move it or lose it.

What’s in a Room

Did you know the number two reason people select a particular house is because of kitchen space? Eight out of ten home buyers who walk through a house remember what the kitchen looks like and what its benefits verses faults were. This leads to the question — what is the most significant part of the kitchen? Choices include floors, appliances, lighting, but the part that stands out the most are the kitchen cabinets. It is the most dominant aspect of the kitchen, and the easiest way to create a “wow” factor. Everyone remembers the kitchen cabinets; it could be because of the color or stain, the design of the cabinet, or mostly because of the clean feel that a new kitchen cabinet provides.

Does Your Front Door say “Welcome”

And finally, Curb Appeal really sells the house.  Exterior features for new or existing homes will make your house say “welcome” when you return after work or when guests come to call.

Think of your home’s façade, lighting, landscaping, and exterior elevation to name a few; these items can easily customize a home when everyone else on the block seems a bit standard.

Give your home a different feel and stand out from the crowd.

Sellers Focus On The Listing Price

12 Apr

When it comes to buying a home, most potential buyers will use the listing price when determining which homes to look at.  Even though the price may be too high and most buyers probably won’t give it a second thought, keep in mind, there are always negotiations. No price is set in stone so if you find your dream home you should certainly try to bargain for a better price.

Sellers

If you set the correct price, you’ll notice a much faster sale.  Many homeowners will argue this point with their realtor; you placed so much time and effort in your home and you have a set number in mind. However, setting the right listing price will attract more potential buyers to your property and you’ll also notice an increase in response from realtors, and receive more calls from prospects.  The listing price is very important – and it can ultimately determine whether or not you sell your property or it remains on the market.

When you put your home up for sale, most activity will happen within the first few weeks.  If you price your home right, you’ll notice immediate interest.  There are always buyers looking for homes in a specific price range and waiting for new homes to be listed or homes to be reduced in price.  Potential buyers could miss seeing your home completely if the price is too high.

Buyers

The list price greatly determines the search criteria for finding your home. Anticipating that many homes in today’s market are overpriced with respect to their Fair Market Value, some real estate agents may extend the upper limit of the search by $10,000 or so to provide a better selection of homes for the buyer.

To determine the listing price of your home, you may consider having it appraised before you put it on the market.  This way, you’ll know the full value of your home.  You can sell it for market value or go a little under, although you should never attempt to go way over the value.  In doing so, you’ll miss out on a lot of potential buyers.

The home market is very competitive these days, which is why you want your home to draw as much interest as possible. Keep in mind that realtors really have no control at all over the real estate market, only the plan behind marketing.

Realtors don’t determine the asking price – the market does.

If you follow your realtors’ advice you’ll set the listing price in the right area and have no problems selling your property.

A Home Modification Grant For The Disabled

12 Apr

People with disabilities often have difficulties living in their homes. Home modifications, such as widened doorways, handicapped bath fixtures, wheel chair ramps and vertical lifts, can improve their mobility and quality of life. But most handicapped people find it difficult to locate funds for these much needed home modifications – but there are funds in the form of grants from several government sponsored programs. While the government does not directly disperse funds, they do give grant money to several sources that turn around and hand out funds to those that apply for them.

Centers for Independent Living

The government provides grant money to various independent living centers in each state and relies on these centers to disperse money to handicapped people in need.

Christian Fund for the Disabled

VA Specially Adapted Housing Grants

This VA grant is available to veterans who meet a specific list of conditions which include (but aren’t limited to) permanent, total service-connected disability.  The grant provides financial assistance up to $12,756 to construct and install modifications that enable safe mobility around the home. Borrowers shopping for a home with a VA mortgage should know about the VA 2101(a) Specially Adapted Housing grant–a flexible option qualifying disabled vets can use to purchase a home suitable for their needs.

These are just a few home modification grants but there are plenty of other grants available that cater to specific needs such as head injury, diabetes, help to families with disabled children and state sponsored grants for the disabled. All it takes is a little research and a few applications to get you started.
