Qualifying Questions for a Short Sale:

• Has the bank filed a Notice of Default yet (a certified letter would have arrived)?

• Is there a Sherrif Sale/Auction date? If so, when is it?

• How many mortgages are there?  What are the approximate balances owed on each?

• Who are the mortgage company(s)?

• Are taxes being paid with the mortgage payment (escrowed) or is the homeowner responsible for them separate?  Are they current or delinquent?

• Are there any other judgments or liens that the seller is aware of (child support/alimony, credit cards, back taxes owed, homeowner association dues, etc.)?

• Is the house currently listed on the market with a Realtor?  (If so, what is the list price, when was it listed, and how has the showing activity been?)

• Have any offers/contracts been presented the bank yet? (If so, how much was the offer and what was the bank’s response?

• Who is on title(deed)? And who is on the actual mortgage?  Who signed the note?

• Was this a primary residence or an investment property (or 2^nd/vacation home)?

• Is the property currently vacant?  (If not, who is presently living there?)

Sellers sometimes are fearful when they look at how much they are selling their current home for when they think about replacing it with something equal or better.  The answer to this fear is that sellers can make up losses when they buy in the same market.  Below a friend recently sold his home and moved to North Carolina and realized savings even though he sold for less!

Trades allow sellers and buyers to move fast in a slower market.  Trades can work when you have a buyer and seller that work from an current market value, appraised value, a retail value or a wholesale value.  Buyers and sellers must work from the same value method and be on the same page for the trade to work.  A one sided trade never works.
