Not sure what a short sale is? A short sale is
when you owe more than what the house will possibly sell for.
This could be attributed to many reasons, but commonly is a result of a rapidly declining real estate market.
Short sales could be a way for homeowners to avoid foreclosure and pay off their loan with the lender by settling.
How to do a short sale:
First, determine the true market value of your home.
A knowledgeable real estate professional, like those at Cecilia Reed Realty, will be able to give you a realistic idea of what your home should probably sell for based on a market analysis. Beware of websites where a computer estimates your home's market value since they may not have complete information or know important things like neighborhood trends and current listings.

Next, don't forget about your closing costs. The experienced agents at Cecilia Reed Realty will account for fees including title report, appraisal, escrow, property taxes, and agent commissions to tally your final costs at closing.
Finally, get in touch with your lender and tell them of the situation. They may even have a special team that oversees short sales. Ask about their exact procedures. Some lenders will be more able to work with you than others. They may be able to reduce the amount owed or make other arrangements. Your lender will have to approve the final sale.
