I have heard of a short sale. My husband and I are in jeapordy of loosing a rental house to foreclosure that is located is a stagnent area. (Population 3,500 - 15 foreclosures last year). We really need out of this house and are interested in a Short Sale.
The home could use some repairs, and has been for sale for nearly 2 years. We have been lucky to rent it off and on, but we really owe too much on it...Almost more that it is worth. Worth $75,000, Owe $60,000.
As an owner, how could we go about doing this? Can we short sale this home on our own? Is there anyone out there that wants my house? It is located in Utah. Currently we are not behind in payments, but it is only a matter of weeks before we are in this situation.
We would like to avoid Foreclosure. Any offers, suggestions, etc would be appreciated!

Hi SKBlack,
I am sorry to hear of your stressful situation. With the market being what it has---verrry good--I am surprised to hear that your property has been for sale for 2 years. Are you in a remote area? Have the realtors been showing the prop? Have there been ANY offers on it? Have you--yourself---checked the Comps to see if it's over priced? I don't want to insult your intelligence here---I just want to know more of the history. I haven't done any short sales---I have heard that you can call the bank to re-organize or re-structure your loan. The pros here will be better able to help you on this advise.
I wouldn't be opposed to purchasing a property in another state--I've done biz in Arizona, California and Nevada---but I wouldn't want a property that I couldn't rent with a cash flow or re-sell.
Have you tried selling it with owner financing--NO QUAL/RENT TO OWN scenario?
I'll check back on your answers--and I'm sure you will hear from others on your situation.
All the best,
Mel

Contact your local Realtor, they can also stop the foreclosure sale. They will place your home on the MLS for the highest AS-is market price. Do not unload and loose out. Rule of thumb... If there is equity for a Private Investor, there is equity for you.
