COLDWELL BANKER, Campbell Realtors is there for consumers needing to do a short sale Huntington Beach, California

Time to short sell your home?

Don't know what a short sale is? A short sale is when the value of a home is less than what is owned. This situation is often caused by home prices in a market rapidly declining.

For many homeowners, a short sale is an ideal way to preclude foreclosure or bankruptcy when they can get the lender to forgive the remainder of the loan.


How to do a short sale:

First, figure out the true market value of your property. Since paying for a licensed appraiser may not work with your already tight budget, a qualified local REALTOR® that knows the current conditions of the Huntington Beach real estate market is a sound way to get an accurate estimate of your home's worth.

Homeowners who are upside down on their mortgage and need relief fast can rely on the expertise of COLDWELL BANKER, Campbell Realtors to guide them through the short sale process. Contact us today for a free consultation - we have an In-House Short Sale Expert that will contact the Bank & handle all the Paperwork Fast!

Next, be sure to figure in your closing costs. The knowledgeable REALTORS® at COLDWELL BANKER, Campbell Realtors will take into account fees including title report, appraisal, escrow, property taxes, and agent commissions to calculate your final costs at closing.

Finally, contact your lender and notify them of your situation. They may even have a particular team that handles short sales. Ask about their exact steps. Some lenders will be more willing to work with you than others. They may be able to lessen how much you owe or make other arrangements. Your lender will have to give approval for the final sale.
