Be Wary Of Short Sale Agents Who Outsource Your Private Information To Third World Countries

November 13, 2012

Hello everyone Shawn Polston here with Tucson Short Sales and 520 Short Sales thank you for your time today. I work with Keller Williams Realty in the Tucson region and use my blog to keep distressed property owners informed on their options for getting out from under their mortgage debt. If you are struggling to make your mortgage payments or just need to sell your home fast please visit my website or call me personally to find out what options you have for avoiding foreclosure.

For my blog today I wanted to talk with Tucson homeowners about what to look for in a short sale team and some of the common trends I have been seeing lately that may be a risk for you. As short sales become more common across the country I continue to see more and more agents pop up trying to capitalize on the amount of distressed property owners in need of help. Unfortunately many of the agents, or teams, are only out to make a quick buck and do not have the best interest of you the homeowner in mind. From talking with Tucson homeowners and realtors I know that some of these upstart companies even outsource your file, and the private paperwork involved, to other countries. If you are a Tucson homeowner you need a Tucson agent that understands this area and will keep your private information in house and provide a full team of experts focused on getting your home sold. My team at Tucson Short Sales keeps all of your information in house from start to finish and have been getting short sales closed in this area for over four years.

Simply put, our team wants to share our experience and knowledge with you in order to make the best real estate decision that is available to you. As a long time Tucson resident I know this area, as a homeowner and as a realtor, and can help you get the answers and results for your distressed property needs. Please fill out a contact form on my website or call me directly today with any questions about getting out from under your mortgage debt. Thank you for your time today and I look forward to helping you in the future at Tucson Short Sales.

Is There Life After a Loan Modification Gets Denied?

November 6, 2012

Hi there, I’m Shawn Polston with Keller Williams Realty, one of Tucson’s leading Short Sale teams. It’s interesting because you guys teach me a lot of things sometimes. There was one thing that I ran into the other day that I just scratched my head on. I had never thought about it but it actually kind of made sense. I was out in the neighborhood visiting houses to see how I could help people. I ran into someone that told me they couldn’t do a short sale and their house had to go to foreclosure because they were denied a loan modification. I can guarantee you their lender didn’t tell them that.

They are under the impression because the loan modification wouldn’t work that it meant they didn’t have any other options or consider a short sale. I was able to help this person and we made a phone call to the bank and were able to get this thing turned around. What dawned on me is that I needed to get this out there. If you have been through the loan modification process and you did not get a loan modification, that does not mean that you can’t do a short sale. Actually in most cases, that means you are completely qualified to do a short sale and your lender would rather you do a short sale especially if the alternative is them foreclosing on you. Your lender should probably tell you that. If you know anyone and they have been denied a loan modification, and they say they can’t do a short sale, please tell them to give us a call.

If a loan modification was denied because you have too much money, maybe that would be the case, but unfortunately in most of these cases that’s not why the loan modification was denied. The loan modification was denied because of the opposite because there is just not enough income and there is something else going on where the loan mod is just not going to make sense to the borrower or the lender and the lender is just not willing to do it. That does not mean you can’t do a short sale. We can help you figure that out in a short appointment in my office. Again, I’m Shawn Polston with TucsonShortSale.com and we are one of Tucson’s leading short sale teams and we are here to help. We can help answer any questions you may have and help you decide if you would like to move forward and have a short sale done on your home. Please pick up the phone or fill out my short sale request form and I hope you are having a great day.

If your mortgage is underwater and you are behind on your payments please take a minute to browse my website or call me today to learn how I can help you sell your distressed property.

For my blog today I wanted to chat with any active duty military members in the Tucson who are stuck in a distressed property and need to sell fast or are relocating. It is the time of year when many active duty military receive their PCS orders and will need to relocate for their job soon. My son is actually a member of the military and I always enjoy helping the people who protect us with their underwater mortgage so they can focus on their job at hand. Whether you have a VA or traditional loan most lenders are allowing active military members to complete a short sale even if they are not behind on their mortgage payments. A trusted short sale expert is still needed in order to put together the proper short sale to show that once PCS orders are received that Tucson property needs to be sold. In fact, I just closed a GMAC short sale in only three weeks for a member of the military thanks to my experience helping numerous Tucson homeowners with their short sales in the past. If you are an active duty military I am here to answer any of your questions and have helped numerous people in your situation sell their Tucson property fast over the last four years.
