Can I sell my home as aRoyal Palm Beach short sale?
A Royal Palm Beach short sale is not in the cards for every homeowner.
You may have heard countless stories about short sales being able to save homeowners’ financial
reputations from ruin.
While such stories may be true, it cannot unfortunately apply to everyone.
There are various factors that have to be considered before you can successfully apply for a
Royal Palm Beach short sale.
Mortgage
In most cases – but not always, mind you – homeowners have an easier time getting lender’s
approval for short selling their home when they are already behind on their mortgage payments.
Being late with their payments basically underscores the fact that they are no longer able to afford
maintaining their home.
Furthermore, short selling it may save the lender more money – and time – in the long run instead of having the property subject to court proceedings for
foreclosure.
Current Market Value
The current market value of your home basically refers to the average price it would sell in today’s
market. In most cases, the present market value of your home is far below than what you have
borrowed against it.
Even if you were to sell the house successfully, the proceeds still won’t be enough to cover your debt.
With short sales, you – or better yet, your agent – need to prove that the current market value of your
home is less than what you owe.
You also need to emphasize that it’s of no fault of yours that the market value of your property is
currently what it is.
Finances
If you are not yet behind your payments, you may nevertheless be struggling very hard to keep up with
it. You can use this as another reason for applying for a short sale.
It would help if you can prove as well that your financial situation is dire and that it’s only a matter of time before you do fall behind with your payments.
