FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Here are a few FAQ's we get asked frequently

What type of investors usually hire you for your services?

• Investors who specialize in small multi-unit storefronts with mixed-use properties
• Investors in the 1-4 family residential real estate space
• Hands off investors that prefer co-ops, condos or townhouses with a Homeowner Association

Has the seller been qualified for a short sale?

Most regular folks do not know that a seller needs to be qualified for a short sale to avoid a deficiency agreement. Short sales are not automatic and deficiency agreements were not uncommon 20 years ago. In today’s culture no one wants to sell their home and still make partial payments on the remaining balance, it defeats the purpose of the seller executing a short sale.

How many lenders are involved with this short sale?

Experienced investors will ask this question to get a gauge on time frame the processing will take. Since the expiration of the HAFA guidelines it is not uncommon for lenders to disagree on proceeds.

Also, investors will disclose junior mortgages, judgements, liens, and other clouds on the title only upon renewal of a full title report and when the first mortgage approval is about to expire.

Is the property owner occupied, rented, or vacant?

Experienced real estate investors ask this question to gauge a property’s challenges. An owner occupied property is generally in better condition. Tenant occupied properties may have more of a delay in deliverance of vacancy and are more prone to damage by way of neglect. Vacant properties are exposed to and certain unforeseen circumstances like extreme weather or squatters. These are factors that increase a deal’s timeline and will eat into an investor’s potential profit.

How Delinquent is the seller?

This matters because certain underwriters will not facilitate what is termed “excessively delinquent”. Sellers and the servicer may process all the paper work for months only to be declined when the transaction is sent for investor approval resulting in a complete waste of time and resources. A seller’s stages of delinquency can limit the “life lines” they have available that can be used to delay the foreclosure.

What is the difference between a short sale and a short payoff?

A short sale happens when the seller’s ability to repay the loan has been diminished and when the value of the property has been reduced due to market conditions, damage or wear and tear. The bank requires specific documentation from the seller and complete diligence on the value of the property. It is usually required that the transaction be arms-length and all compensation to the seller disclosed and approved.

On a short payoff, the mortgage could be current and the seller would still have the ability to repay the loan but the property is deemed over-leveraged. The seller may opt for a negotiated deficiency. Also, a short payoff does not necessarily have to be an arms-length transaction, for example estate to beneficiary or family member can be permissible.
