What does this statement for short sale mean in real estate ad?
It says “Short sale with written approval for this price”. I’m familiar with what a short sale is but wondered why they added “with written approval for this price”.
Also in this situation does the bank take bids like a regular house or does the buyer need to bid for the actual price listed?
Also, if I bid the full asking price can anyone tell me how long it takes to get approval and a contract?
Short Sale, A Practical Approach
The book, Short Sale, A Practical Approach, is designed for buyers, sellers and agents. It is a “how-to” guide to handling of short sale. In light of the housing bubble, the book is released timely to help those who can’t sell their home because the debt on their home is higher than its value.
The book shows step-by-step how approval is obtained from the lender for a short payoff of the loan. Homeowners experiencing financial hardship do not have to face foreclosure. The short sale alternative, if approved, is a better choice.
Agents who do not understand short sale will discover the mystery behind short sale–why it is done.and why the lenders prefer it over foreclosure. It is a market niche that agents should get into.
For those who do not wish to do the negotiation side of short sale, this book will enable them to explain to the seller what short sale entails. The agent’s problem today is that homes are not selling. With short sales, homes do sell!
