Don’t Be Scared Off By Unique Short Sale Approach Utilized By Nationstar

December 23, 2013

Hello everyone Shawn Polston here with Keller Williams Realty and Tucson Short Sales talking with you today about getting a short sale completed with Nationstar. I use this blog to keep homeowners up to date and informed on how to avoid foreclosure and sell their distressed property. If you are having a hard time making that mortgage payment every month or fed up with no equity in your home visit my website or call me today to discuss your options.

The first short sale I did with Nationstar was at least seven years ago and I am very familiar with their staff and how they conduct business. One of the unique aspects of Nationstar is how proactive they are with setting up an auction for the property with the realtor and the homeowner. They are very consistent with this approach and a lot of agents are opposed to it because it’s not how a short sale is traditionally done. This may just be an ego thing but at the end of the day it can make or break a homeowners short sale possibilities. I have seen numerous short sales get shut down by Nationstar simply because an agent did not want to pursue this route for selling the home. At the end of the day protecting the homeowner is an agents responsibility even if it’s not the same as your typical short sale. Thanks to my experience with Nationstar I have helped many homeowners by simply letting them know what their options are and the outcomes of each.

If you have a Nationstar mortgage and have been considering selling your distressed property please give me a call to discuss your current situation. The more time we have to weigh your options the better chance we can avoid foreclosure and get your home sold. Thank you for your time today and I look forward to hearing from you soon at Keller Williams Realty in Tucson.

While Not Every Short Sale Is The Same The Keys To Success May Be

December 10, 2013

Hello everyone Shawn Polston with Keller Williams Realty talking with homeowners today about some of the keys to getting your short sale approved quickly. I use this blog to keep distressed property owners in the Tucson area up to date and knowledgeable about their current real estate options. If you have questions about your current property situation or need to sell your home fast please take a minute to fill out the contact form on my website or call me directly to get started.

So today we are going to discuss some of the keys of short sale success that I have learned over the years while helping homeowners. It is important to remember that no two short sales are the same but there are some guidelines to follow to make your approval easier to attain. One of the best ways to prepare for a short sale is by having your financial history available to share with your lender during negotiations. This will call for two years bank statements, two months of pay stubs, and a brief explanation of your monthly expenses. This is vital information in getting a short sale approved and the sooner it is organized and submitted the better chance we will have. The homeowner is also responsible for completing a hardship letter that explains why a short sale should be approved. Of course all of this preparation is worth nothing if you the homeowner are not committed to leaving your home and moving on. Finding an experienced, qualified agent is an important part of the short sale process but they cannot make you sell your home. For those homeowners at risk of default or that have already defaulted it is important that you considering all of your options.

If a short sale may be in your future please give me a call so we can discuss all of the options you have sooner rather than later. The more time a homeowner has to work with the better opportunity of avoiding long term credit damage. Thank you for your time today and I look forward to helping with your Tucson real estate needs in the near future.

Ask The Right Questions When Making Your Choice For A Tucson Realtor

December 9, 2013

If you are considering a short sale make sure you find a Tucson realtor with the experience to help you sell your home fast. Any Tucson real estate agent can handle your short sale file but if they don’t have experience they may simply be wasting your time. Shawn Polston has been helping homeowners in the area for years avoid foreclosure and take advantage of their current real estate options.

Most homeowners select their Tucson realtor thanks to a referral from a friend or co-worker without doing any research. A short sale is not your normal real estate transaction and for this reason it is important to know your Tucson real estate agent has the knowledge and experience to help. For this reason it may be best to learn some important facts about any potential Tucson realtors that you hire. One of the most important things to know about your Tucson realtor is their success rate on short sale files. If your short sale agent is not selling the homes they list at a high rate they could be wasting your time. An experienced and educated agent in the area should be able to close over ninety percent of the short sale files that they take on. It may also be a good idea to learn how many home sales your Tucson realtor handles every week. A short sale requires nearly daily contact with your lender and if your agent is too busy it could impact your sale. Especially for those homeowners who have missed multiple payments and have a foreclosure date that is nearing. Some Tucson realtors even utilize a team of agents for short sales in order to ensure that every file is handled in a timely manner.

Your short sale is a very big opportunity to avoid foreclosure and get out from under your mortgage debt which is why a qualified agent is necessary. Put in the time to find the best agent for your current needs that will help sell your home fast and for the highest and best offer.
