This is primarily because of the dreadful foreclosure crisis the country has been experiencing. It is a form of loss mitigation, and prevents a foreclosure from occurring, but still has quite a dramatic effect on the home owner’s credit rating.
Whether you live in Phoenix, Glendale , or Scottsdale Arizona and are considering buying or selling a home, there are many benefits of short sales for both ends of the spectrum. You may have heard negative things about the process, and there are a few. However, the positive far outweighs the negative. This article will explain more, so that no matter which side you are on you will have a better understanding of the process.
For better or worse, short sales will be a common part of the real estate transactional landscape for the foreseeable future. It makes sense, then, to understand why they exist and how, exactly, they work. A short sale occurs when the value of a property is less than outstanding balance on the mortgage or mortgages affecting it and the mortgage holder(s) agree to accept less than the amount owed to them in order to facilitate the sale of the property.
