Many Real Estate owners in Pleasanton, CA and everywhere in the country are facing difficult decisions regarding what to do with their mortgages. Some of the more common reasons people are finding themselves in these stressful situations are:
1. They were talked into financing 100% of their mortgage due to the “thinking” that within a few years, the market value of their property would increase, thus they could then refinance because they would have instant equity.
2. The type of loan the borrower got to purchase or refinance the loan has met it’s short “intro rate” term and has now adjusted to a rate the borrower cannot afford.
3. Someone refinanced their home back when “No Doc Loans” were available for, let’s say for the sake of example, a 5-year term. Now the term is up, there is no longer the “No Doc” option and they are stuck without a way to remain in their home.
And I’m sure the list goes on as to the reasons why many find themselves in this situation. The one thing to know is that You Are Not Alone!!
What can you do if you find yourself wondering how to move forward?
First, (A) Act upon your situation. Don’t sit around hoping it will get better, burying your head in the sand. That won’t help. You can get through this; many people have gone through it successfully and are beginning the process right now.
Second (B) Believe…find a professional you believe you can trust. ASK for references from their past clients. Make your professional prove to you they know what they are doing. If you hire someone to guide you that doesn’t truly know how to get through a short sale, you’re going to be in deep trouble.
Third, (C) Cooperate. Cooperating with your Real Estate professional makes ALL the difference. How can we do our job if you are not providing the information the bank requires? The process is what it is. And what is that you might ask? It is tedious, time consuming, monotonous, wearisome, and the list goes on. Your professional knows exactly what to expect and how to get through it. They should set your expectation right up front as to the path to a successful end. This is not a short process and you should expect it to take at least 4-months to a successful close. Once an offer is received and sent to the bank, this process alone can take up to 90-days to get an approval. Once the approval is completed, let your 30-day escrow begin! That’s the less complicated part.
