I gotta tell ya that reading about nonsense like that makes me realize how much incompetence there is in the handling of short sales. I have not had a single one that I submitted an offer on get rejected. Not one! Sometimes they take an extra month or two, sometimes the bank counters slightly (never more than $10,000) and sometimes the seller rejects the lenders offer because they cant or dont want to. But I have never seen anything close to the 4 scenarios you have outlined.
For the record, I’ve closed a couple dozen this year and have as many in process.

May 22, 2009 at 11:17 PM #405067SD RealtorParticipantI posted about short sales in another thread not long ago about my thoughts that. Basically that I feel many more short sales failure are due to the listing agents being lazy more then anything else. The two I have listed right now are really a pain in the butt as well. Both have seconds and both are taking alot of time, lots of calls, lots of faxes, and refaxes and more calls. Meanwhile for the short sales I have offers in as for buyers, I have to keep calling the listing agents up to get status…. over and over again.
Gotta agree with you sdr.

As for whoever posted asking me what it was like the last time I was at the trustee sale last year there were about 12 people there.

May 22, 2009 at 11:35 PM #405030CA renterParticipantExcellent info. Thank you for posting your observations, SDR.
From this, I gather the lenders are trying to do everything they can to not foreclose. Is that correct?
Hmmmm…I wonder what it is that’s suddenly making them do this. Maybe the PPIP, so some “private party” (A.K.A. the govt) can buy up the debt before it defaults again? So principal amounts can be written down, or???
