Yes there are lots of buyers who back of SS. One of the most important things I can do on a SS is be able to recognize which buyers are most likely to stick.[/quote]
After 4 months, why the hell would you expect anyone to stick around, especially when the lender could say no after waiting all that time? 30 days with no movement? screw ’em. I’ll keep looking rather than pining for months after the short sale of my dreams.
It isn’t a marriage, it’s an offer to buy. If the seller can’t deliver the goods in a reasonable amount of time, that’s not the buyer’s problem. You seem to be looking for emotional buyers, aka “suckers”. That may be a good strategy for your sellers, but don’t disparage the sensible folks who made a good faith effort to buy what you couldn’t manage to sell them before they grew too old to care.
