Northwest Indiana Real Estate Sales Subject To Bank Approval of Short Sale.
Northwest Indiana Real Estate Sales
Subject To Bank Approval of Short Sale.
Every Real Estate Transaction is Different.
This is
especially true when it comes to the purchase of a home in Northwest Indiana when
the offer is contingent upon the home seller’s lender approval of a short sale.
Short Sales
have changed over the past several years. i.e.:
* The task driven computerized EQUATOR
system did not exist. Talking with the
seller’s lender representative in the USA was how the short sale process was
initiated and completed.
Bank
Policies and Laws have also changed:
- There were no Federal Programs for distressed
home owners HAFA was not an option for
lenders to offer sellers who qualify
The following
events affecting the short sale process were not as prevalent either:
Many factors may affect the time
frame for getting short sales done.
- Seller cooperation throughout the entire listing, showing and offer
process.
- Buyer cooperation with longer
transaction time and in completing due diligence (i.e. home inspection and
appraisal) prior to lender final approval.
- Number of junior liens or judgments
on Title-work
- Type of short sale HAFA verses non
HAFA
- Varied Internal Policies by Individual Banks and Differing Investor Guidelines
- Additional parties MAY BE involved potentially lengthening the time from
offer to closing i.e.Asset Management Companies, HUD Approval, Attorney, Court
Approval, FHA 203k bid process, etc…
