Short Sale Math- Part 1
The Variables:
$500,000 Property Value in 2005
$425,000 Loan balance + back due payments+ legal
fees for foreclosure + unpaid interest,+
delinquent impound payments, etc.
$300,000 Property value in 2012
$290,000 Agreed-upon sale price with new buyer

Short Sale Math- Part 2
$290,000 Sale price to new buyer
$29,000 Estimated closing costs: Title fees, escrow costs,
commissions, home repairs, etc.
$261,000 Net proceeds from sale to new buyer

Short Sale Math- Part 3
So what is the Short?
$261,000 Net Proceeds from sale to new buyer
<less> 425,000 Balance due to Lender
<$164,000> SHORT

(They wrote off 39% of the amount due to them)

Seller Foreclosure Timing-
(or the short sale clock ticking)
1. Usually after several months with no payments, lender files NOD (Notice of Default). Could be sooner or later than this.
2. 90 days later, the lender files Notice of Trustees Sale. Sale date, time & location are made public record.
3. No sooner than 21 days later, the foreclosure sale can be held.

Seller Considerations
Include:
• Do we want to stay in house or move?
• Is there a hardship? Pay off the short if they have cash?
• Scams?
• When to stop making payments?
• Neighborhood impact of a short or distress sale?
• Shame? Embarrassment? Morality questions?
• What are credit, legal, and tax implications of our decision?
• Can a sale close in time to beat the foreclosure sale date?

Offer Process for Buyers-
Can take 2-6 months A. Qualify with a lender and/or have cash to purchase
B. Find house & make offer
C. Buyer and seller negotiate offer, seller accepts offer, subject to lender approval
D. Agent submits offer package to bank: offer, seller financials, required forms (90+ pages)
E. Agent pursues approval with each lender and lienholder, sends updated paperwork as months progress.
F. Lender makes decision, additional lenders make decision
G. THEN in last 30-45 days Escrow opens, buyer’s deposit into escrow, buyer investigates property
H. Escrow closes, before the foreclosure sale date

Buyers- What can go wrong? • Low Rates, but lending standards are tight
• For new loan, appraisals can come in under price, lender may
not approve property
• Unexpected monthly expenses: property taxes at old value
• Buyer can be asked to kick in $ to deal for seller expenses
• Foreclosure sale comes too fast
• Lender can reject deal or stall, or even sell loan mid-transaction
• Agent not knowledgeable, doesn’t anticipate well
• Loans recorded on wrong property
• Hardship doubtful or unbelievable? Uncooperative sellers
• Sellers sometimes change their minds, due to tax/legal/debt
consequences
• Inspections can have unpleasant surprises Copyright © 2012 Davies Company Real Estate

The Lender Players
Copyright © 2012 Davies Company Real Estate
Private Lenders, Not a Bank
![Page 24: Short Sales- Secrets From the Inside](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052505/554e021bb4c90513298b49e9/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Question: Are lenders a
party to the
transaction?
Answer: No
Copyright © 2012 Davies Company Real Estate
![Page 25: Short Sales- Secrets From the Inside](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052505/554e021bb4c90513298b49e9/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Lender Math Do we want the property back?
What will we get in a short sale vs. foreclosure?
Declining market vs. strengthening market?
Do we have the loan paperwork? Or none?
Is there a government incentive for us to complete the short sale?
Can the buyer close quickly? All cash?
