Some Lenders Are Transferring Mortgages During The Short Sale Process

April 5, 2012

Hello everyone my name is Shawn Polston with :k1 Short Sales, your number one short sale agent in the Tucson area, thank you for taking a minute to check out my blog today. I work with Keller Williams Realty in the Tucson area and use my blog to provide homeowners with valuable information on their options for avoiding foreclosure. If your mortgage is underwater, or if you are already considering a short sale, feel free to stop by my website or contact me directly to learn more about your options.

For my blog today I wanted to discuss working with Seterus on a short sale file and some of my recent experiences. Seterus has been around for a long time but has operated under different names, such as LBPS. My team and I have worked with Seterus for years and know what to expect when working with their short sale department. Thanks to all of our experience we have enjoyed a lot of success on the short sale files we have gotten approved through Seterus. One thing I have noticed lately is a lot of Bank of America mortgages being transferred over to Seterus. This is rather common between lenders and just goes to show just how popular short sales have become in the Tucson area. It is even possible that your mortgage may be transferred during the short sale process.

If you have any questions on the short sale process, regardless of who your lender is, please give me a call or contact me through my website to discuss all of your real estate options. Even if a short sale is not right for you I want to help you avoid foreclosure. Thank you for your time today and I hope to hear from you soon at Tucson Short Sales.

Is it Possible to Complete a Short Sale When You Have a Reverse Mortgage?

April 3, 2012

 

Hi there, I am Shawn Polston here with TucsonShortSales.com, one of Tucson’s leading short sale teams. I wanted to talk to you today about reverse mortgages and short sales. For those of you who are not aware of what a reverse mortgage is, it is a product, generally speaking for folks who are up there in years, and I think the requirement is over 65. Depending on how much equity you have in your property, a reverse mortgage will actually pay you every month. One of the things I have found out there in my looking around the internet is there are actually some people out there claiming that you cannot do a short sale on a reverse mortgage. Nothing could be further from the truth.

In situations where there is definitely some sort of hardship, the lenders are interested in doing short sales on reverse mortgages. Maybe something has changed, there has been a job loss, or unfortunately a death of someone who was involved in a reverse mortgage, chances are, your lender will work with you on your situation.

I wanted to get that out there and make sure you know that it is an option. If you have any questions about how short sales and reverse mortgages work, please do not hesitate to pick up the phone and give me a call. You can also fill out the short sale request form on our website. Again, I am Shawn Polston, one of Tucson’s leading short sale teams and we are here to help. I look forward to speaking with you soon. I hope you are having a great day, thanks.

March 29, 2012

Hi this is Shawn Polston with TucsonShortSale.com and Keller William’s Realty in Tucson. I just wanted to get the word out there that we have answers for all of your short sale questions. We can answer questions regarding how the short sale process works with your lender to how the entire short sale process works overall; we can sit down with you, explain everything to you and answer all of your questions.

Many people wonder why homeowners would do a short sale versus walking away from their home or why they would do a short sale versus a deed in lieu of foreclosure.

We have answers to your questions about loan modifications. If a loan modification may or may not be right for you we can help you look at the situation and assess what the outcome may be if you should pursue one. We have all kinds of information and articles about how deficiency with short sales work and whether or not the lender can pursue you. If they can’t, we can tell you how the tax ramifications will work.

Many things regarding the short sale process might need consultation or advising from either an attorney or a certified public accountant, but one of the things we can do is give you the information that is out there. We can also educate you about the different programs that are out there to help underwater homeowners.

If you are considering a short sale, a deed in lieu of foreclosure or a loan modification and you have any questions at all, please either give us a call or fill out the form on our website.
